The British Army is changing more in the last 2 years than in the last 200!
New Fitness tests and training based on Science from the University of Chichester, Women in ground close combat and the new integrated Virtus Equipment are changing the way the Army does business.
This week at Bulletproofbodies, we have been tracing back to the originator of making Functional Movement popular, Paul Chek.
We delivered a presentation on how the British Army has now changed to a Functional Movement Type of training and the fact that Women will be going into the Infantry for the first time in the history of the British Army.
This type of training has been championed from the CHEK Institute for the last 20 years.

But as Gavin Jennings explains, there is more to functional movement and it is how you developed as a baby in your first year of life.
Training Functional Movements or as the CHEK Institute calls them, Primal Patterns is important in order to make sure you are training in all 3 planes of movement.
