The 6 Fundamental Components of Railyard Fitness


Chil­dren move with their environment every day wherever they are without thinking about it (unless restricted from doing so by adults). Many popular adult exercise programs allow them to get out of their comfort zone, be child-like with a fun exercise, and allow their bodies to move the way they were intended to move. Any adult or youth fitness exercise program can integrate a great workout with Railyard Active Play.



Can Railyard Active Play Build Kids Muscular Strength?


Building muscular strength is the most long-lasting and effective when it is done using the entire body. Railyard Active Play provides strategies for sports conditioning for kids that are built around using body weight and gravity for resistance, with techniques that resemble playing. We've probably all done these techniques at one time or another - either on the playground, in yoga, or in an aerobics studio: vaults, hip raises, alligators, inchworms. These exercises resemble play but they're also implemented in a way that replicates normal movements of the human body - the body was designed to move as an well-connected system.
