Profiling the Workout, George St. Pierre's RushFit, Part 2

This is part 2 in a multipart series that I hope gives deeper insight into each workout in George St. Pierre’s Rushfit program.

Last time we looked at what many consider the backbone or foundational part of the total regimen: Strength and Endurance Workout. This time we are going to look at the Abdominal and Core Conditioning and also the Stretching/Flexibility part of the program.

With George St. Pierre’s RushFit, these two programs go together so well because they both can be often overlooked even though they are vitally important to the total fit whole and your visual results. When I talk about flexibility many people roll their eyes in a combination of boredom and indifference. With many men, the reaction also includes some level of disgust. This was something I encountered when I was talking about P90X. The yoga and stretching was one that men frequently skipped. This would be a mistake.

I do have a better vibe about the stretching and flexibility portion of George St. Pierre’s RushFit. I think people will like it and they will do it rather than looking at it as a day to skip totally. I must say that you are risking not only safety but results if you fail to do it.  Users are noting that George and Erik focus on a dynamic functional aspect of gaining flexibility that seems to actually work to make you more flexible in less time. If there is one thing that people hate with traditional stretching workouts is that they never seem to get you anywhere fast enough. I think you’ll like this one, man or woman

The other part of George St. Pierre’s RushFit to focus on here is the abdominal strength and core conditioning. This is a lot easier sell, especially with the men, because who doesn’t want to have great looking abs? What you learn here is really the advanced way to get you a fully sculpted mid-section fast by engaging all the important large muscles which support your abs in one dynamic program. You’ll get that rounded torso look that you envy in pro athletes. This one is all about long term functionality in the world and being durable from the all too common injuries that plague many of us as we age.

I think that’s what is laudible about George St. Pierre’s RushFit. The appearance results are not coming at the expense of safety nor the larger picture of maintaining good health.
