Chris Stratis came to the point where he questioned everything he believed about fitness, and decided to put his focus towards having a body that works for the long term. To Chris, fitness isn’t about the abs and biceps. Yes we want to look good, and yes, training should create a positive outcome. But why wreck your longevity for gains? The goal in training is to improve heart strength, mobility, stability, balance, strength, to counter the effects of sitting and bad postures, and yes lose weight and reach our goal in the process.
Humans are also meant to be able to get in certain positions and be able to stabilize our bodies in those positions and move through ranges of motion in those positions.
We talk about how Chris has been able to help office workers with up to 35 years chronic pain, out of pain; athletes hurting within their sport, getting out of pain; squash players feeling & moving better and pain free on and off the court. Also, racket sport players who are now able hit all those shots they once missed as their mobility increases. Every golfer Chris has trained can now hit the ball farther and straighter.
