I am getting stronger and leaner, but what are we doing today? And why is it working?

How do I tell my friends what Innovative Results is like?

I tried to explain Innovative Results to my friends, but I wasn’t sure how to describe what we do?

These are common questions from our amazing Innovative Results Family, so we decided to write out a thorough explanation of Innovative Results – The Orange County Fitness Playground.

At Innovative Results, we work hard to develop workouts (fitness training program) that appeal to a wide variety of people, challenge each person and help them reach their goals.

Some days may be upper body strength, lower body strength,  conditioning, recovery, performance, power, and others simply to help us feel good.

Innovative Results workouts (known as fitness training program) are constantly improving, developing, and getting better for the most important person in our fitness playground–YOU.

Innovative Results training program rotate weekly and the entire training cycle (progression) changes every three weeks.

This allows us time to teach proper movement patterns for power, strength, endurance, and looks. This way we can actually see improvement in each area before moving to the next training cycle (progression).

This might sound a bit complex, but don’t worry, we’ve got you covered!

Typically, this is how one of our Fitness Training Program Sessions work…

1 – A Check-in

2 – A Huge Smile

3 – Followed By Several High-Fives, Hugs, and/or Hand Shakes

4 – A Coach Will Do a Quick Nutrition Journal Check-up, Adding Some Guidance if Needed.

(If You Show Up Early, You Get the Productive and Feel Good Techniques of Self-Myofascial Release, Foam Rolling, Trigger Point the Tight Spots)

We all have overactive, tight muscles that can affect how we move or feel.

Commonly, tight calves, Thighs, Hip-flexors, Upper Back, and Chest can wreak havoc on our posture and ability to move efficiently.

Addressing these areas before the workout can help alleviate common aches and pains, and increase our ability to move during the session.

5 – Warming Up the Engine

A good, dynamic warm up helps prevent injury.

We typically take about 10 minutes to do a variety of mobility drills, activation drills, crawling and locomotion to prepare our bodies for the workout.

This loosens up tight areas, activates the right muscles, raises our core temperature, teaches basic movement patterns and gets us primed to workout!

6 – Speed, Agility, Quickness and Testing Isn’t Just for Athletes

Moving quickly, reacting to outside stimuli, skipping, jumping, and sprinting are incredibly important for safe, healthy, and good human movement.

We use a variety of ladder drills, cone drills, hurdles and other games to get people moving quickly.

It might be a powerful triple jump for one person and a simple squat variation for another, but we help everyone work hard for their ability level.

We also ensure we are testing every session to make sure every person is improving in all the areas of fitness that they are trying to create (i.e. power, strength, endurance, weight, technique)

7 – Time to Get Strong

This piece of our training session builds muscle, helping us get stronger, build lean body mass, and improve our metabolic engines.

We squat, lunge, hinge, push, pull, climb, crawl, carry, and drag.

The human body is designed to move in a LOT of different ways, so our training sessions involve much more than bench press and curls.

We use barbells, kettlebells, sandbags, bodyweight, heavy barrels, chains, steel maces, steel clubs and many other tools to challenge our members.

Exercises, body position, rep ranges, time under tension, load positioning, tempo and many other factors help us change things up and keep our bodies guessing.

8 – Breath Heavy, Increase Your Heart Rate, and Sweat a Bit

Conditioning, circuits, High Intensity Interval Training, and similar workouts have become very popular these days.

While they can be beneficial, if used correctly, we tend to keep most of the conditioning work at the end of each workout.

Our conditioning pieces can be short and explosive; longer and less intense; or somewhere in the middle.

This variety help train all three of our basic energy systems, while helping our nervous, cardiovascular, muscular, and metabolic systems to run more efficiently.

9 – Stretch, Roll and Recover…aaaah

Static stretching at the end of our workout helps shut the muscles down and start the recovery process.

We’ve just stimulated the body and stretching helps us stay loose, helps us cool down and starts the recovery process.

We also use trigger point techniques and deep breathing to assist in this recovery process.

Here is a quick list of what we do at Innovative Results for our Fitness Training Programs:

1 – Check-In.

2 – HUGE Smiles!

3 – High Fives, Hand shakes, and Hugs!

4 – Quick Nutrition Journal Check.

5 – Warm-up!

6 – SAQ, Activation, and Testing.

7 – Get Strong, Build Lean Muscle, and Build our Metabolic Engine!

The workouts here are not only challenging but functional and fun! The very reason I stopped working out in a regular gym was because I was tired of lifting weights and doing cardio and many of my other friends trained me in the same fashion. They became monotonous and boring and I rarely looked forward to them. At IR, the workouts are creative and no two are ever the same. It doesn’t feel like working out even though you are definitely working up a sweat! I am NOT a morning workout person, yet I wake up excited to get to my 6am workout. Always recharged, energized and refreshed after my workouts… – Christina

The workouts are fun, functional, tailored to your physical abilities and are held almost every hour of the day, necessary for me since my work hours can fluctuate. Inside of two weeks, I saw results that in my physique that I hadn’t seen in years. Just try it…you’ll never look back. – Sharif
