MY MOVEMENT PERFORMANCE

Never underestimate the importance of Physical Fitness. In this day and age, it is so easy to fall into the whole lifestyle of having everything done with just a click of a button. The advancement of technology has made it easier for people to become couch potatoes instead of being up and about. Simple everyday errands like bank transactions, shopping, and even buying groceries can now be done in the comforts of your own home. It’s great news for the fast paced lives we lead but bad news for our bodies. It’s time to get back into shape and I’ve found the best place to do exactly that—Movement Performance Manila.

Movement Performance Manila is an up and coming performance training facility that specializes in both physical therapy and strength & conditioning. If you want to get back on your feet after an injury or simply get back into shape, Movement Performance is the place for you. They pave the road for better athletic performance and the better way to health and fitness. They also pave the path to recovery for injured people trying to get back on their feet in life or to return to sport.

The gym is conveniently located at the heart of Makati and is fully equipped with everything a person needs to train smart and train hard. The spacious facility is divided into different sections, depending on the type of exercise to be performed in each section. I have to admit, I am picky when it comes to gyms and there are a few things I look for in the facility. I look at the equipment, cleanliness, coaches, and air-conditioning. I know the last one is a bit weird but a girl needs to breathe properly. The Movement Performance gym has all of those and so much more.

The coaches and physical therapists at Movement Performance are front runners in their field and have a wealth of training both locally and internationally. They have worked with and helped people from all walks of life: from kids and students to working moms and busy dads, to athletes of different levels and different sports. The coaching staff is very knowledgeable, approachable, and attentive, which is everything you need in a coach.

The training they provide is very comprehensive and challenging yet rewarding and fulfilling. Other than strength and power, they build up movement competency. This entails that they train people to move in the best way possible. Agility and footwork. Acceleration and control. Speed and change of direction. Jumping ability and proper running form. Their training programs don’t aim to make you tired, but to get you to move better. The coaches carry out training programs with a purpose. The methods are also very thorough and scientific yet practical and applicable.

When I trained with Movement Performance Manila, I went for the most basic training program. It was definitely no walk in the park but I loved every second of it. I felt every muscle in my body working up a sweat. We used every inch of the gym and every section to train. I easily get bored in the gym but, surprisingly, the exercises were diverse enough to keep my focus. I especially loved the jumping exercises and the relay exercises. My experience with Movement performance Manila was hard work but fun and I would definitely recommend their program to even the most clueless gym goers.
