This is very helpful. I was aiming for hypertrophy but I think I'm in love with functional training

Love this video! Since I’ve found you, I’ve focused a lot more on incorporating functional strength but also learning the risk in a lot of the traditional hypertrophy moves even though one of my goals is building muscle. There’s so much to functional training that I find to be so much more fun and efficient to both the now of getting stronger and later in life!

Remember that there's risk in everything! I definitely don't want you to think I'm demonizing these exercises. Everything has risk, you just have to weigh it against the rewards :)

I love this!! Such good breakdown and incorporation of different movement patterns. I'm definitely one that love the traditional functional moves and then add on a few reps of the "extreme" stuff at the end. Really fun! Thanks Justina I am absolutely enjoying your content. It's informational and realistic. Getting a little tired of the overly produced stuff out there with crazy filters!

Holy schnike!! This is exactly what has been kicking around in my brain for a while, but I haven’t had the terms (labels) to define and refine my approach. Thank you!!!! So very happy to have opened up YT today and check my sub list (you and Briannah Jewel are my faves) PS: one request? Please no more discounting what # you’re lifting or explaining away any regressions. You very clearly stated your workout intentions and goodness!! anyone paying a kick of attention can see that you’re actually working 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻 (I catch myself apologizing or explaining it then remember, dammit! Ain’t no body’s business but my own) 🤜🏻🤛🏻

I love your videos! Instead of front squats (because I hate the position to hold the bar) I do zercher squats, you can't load them that heavy but I find the position a great way to reinforce actively engaging your core in a squat movement.

I actually love doing a combination of hypertrophy and functional. Love lifting heavy as i can but also see the benefit of unilateral training. I think both are important.

Any reason not to do both? I’ve been doing Natacha Oceane’s program and I like how we get to do the classic lifts, and track progress on them, and also functional movements (moving in all planes etc.) usually after the big barbell lifts. Great video, as per usual

I dont know how anyone enjoys or safely does an over head press with barbell! I just feel like the likelihood they're doing a back bend to get the bar up is very likely . Unless their face is flat as a board it's likely in their way. Glad there's other options. Loved the video!! Thank you!

If I’m hoping to hypertrophy but only have access to home dumbbells, would I achieve the same results compared to gym barbells as you’re showing in the video? I guess I’m asking whether my hands/grip strength will be limited more by dumbbells than barbell
