Functional Path Training
The Functional Path is a path that had been traveled many times before but had fallen out of use in favor of smoother paved roads that promised faster and easier results. Seeking to follow and better define the functional path is a continuing journey, fortunately it is a journey that many have traveled before. Functional Path training is getting back to the basics of movement. It is learning to tune into the body and it’s inherent wisdom to produce rhythmic flowing movement.

And guys stop reading your own press. Your peers will let you know how good you are.
I will choose to take a different road on this. While Nick, Bruce and David have their faults in their own respective sports they are not the cause of the demise of the American Athlete nor their own sports. All sports are bigger than any one person and always will be much like the President gets too much credit/blame with how the USA is doing.
I would prefer to blame lazy kids with video games, minimal PE programs in schools, kids wanting to get jobs (instead of sports) to make spending $$ and broken American families to blame for much of our Athlete problems. How many kids even know who Nick, Bruce and David are?
