New Research is Constantly Being Published
Research on functional movement training has been booming over the past decade. Here are just a few of our favorite articles on functional movement training. ground-based movement, and the functional movement patterns. The research in these articles has influenced the concepts surrounding CounterFlow Yoga, all the classes you take on GXunited.TV and the articles we write.
