Condition your entire body without going to the gym. Are you tired of peddling yet not getting any where, pushing weights on a stable chrome machine or spending hours on a boring thread mill? If you answered yes to any of these questions than XFT (Xtreme Functional Training) is for you! You can finally have the body of your dreams and do it in only one hour a day twice a week with Anta's XFT Challenge.

Why is this program referred to as a challenge? Because e very one of us faces daily challenges in our every day life, whether it's at work, in our personal relationships or maybe even in our eating habits. Life is full of challenges we win some and we lose some. We are not promising you a rose garden. What we will do is prepare you to take on the challenge of getting you in the best shape of your life in the shortest time possible. When the XFT Challenge and other challenges come your way, you will gladly accept the energy that they have to give you. You will greet each challenge with the expectation that it will make you stronger, more capable, more experienced and more effective. We will motivate you and lead you to finally succeed in your fitness goals and in life. 

Unlike most workouts, XFT includes the 3 aspects of optimal fitness and conditioning:

Muscular Development – using the latest, time tested and proven exercise physiology, Kettlebells, Indian Clubs and Medicine Ball. Our classes focus on every muscle, in turn building greater strength and muscular definition in a fun and exciting way.

Cardio Conditioning – through an intense Fitness Kickboxing and Kettlebell workout you'll expand the capacity of your heart and lungs while burning calories. The results are increased stamina to keep you energized all day. Yet, you'll never get bored since the workout will never be the same. We will teach you how to punch like a boxer, kick like a martial artist and explode with Kettlebell power. In the Kickboxing portion you might do a rhythmic kickboxing class with heart pounding music, hit pads, targets or the heavy bag.

Flexibility – in order to avoid injuries as well as give you the flexibility to help keep you feeling young and agile we've incorporated stretching exercises to lengthen and tone your muscles. Using martial arts, yoga and Pilates moves.

Muscular Development + Cardio Conditioning + Flexibility = Ultimate Body Transformation

Consistency is the key to success in any fitness program. I t's easy to want to be in-shape, but being motivated to go to a gym or dedicated to run on a treadmill is not. Almost any workout will give you some results if done consistently, but not all workouts will give you the motivation to continuously train. In a nutshell, gym workouts are flat, boring and non-functional. Weight training especially on machines is an isolated specific muscle training workout. Life is not. A functional workout is like life itself. It is how you live and work. It will work all of you body parts simultaneously just like living in the real world. In our daily routine we grab grocery bags, play with our kids and pets, open doors, pull, push and move our bodies in the oddest ways. Yet, lifting conventional weights is on a stable surface working a specific body part at a time.

When you move your body or perform every day tasks you do not move or work a specific muscle group at a time. Functional training (martial arts, kettlebells, medicine balls, Indian Clubs) work your muscles simultaneously. So you can see why this class is ideal not just for the out of shape house wife but for also the star athlete looking for an edge on the competition. Anta's XFT classes are motivating, exciting, functional and fun. Our instructors will motivate you to accomplish your goals. We believe that goals we set are goals we get. Our students actually enjoy learning kickboxing for cardio and coordination, kettlebells for muscular development, strength and cardio, Indian Clubs for strength and flexibility and other functional exercises while training to get into the best shape of their life. The combination of a fun workout, physical results and learning life-skills is what we call a 3-dimensional or mind/body/spirit workout… giving you three reasons to take our classes instead of just one.

The XFT Challenge was conceived by Julio Anta with over 30 years of experience and certifications in the martial arts and fitness (kung fu, tai chi, Israeli martial arts, Fitness Kickboxing, bodybuilding, personal trainer, Pilates, Indian Clubs and Kettlebells) and as a Marine Corps Sergeant to develop a program that will get you in great shape working out twice a week for only one hour. He calls it the Xtreme Functional Training Challenge because it is not a magical pill but a true mind, body and spirit challenge. Mind you this is not your typical aerobic health club and weight machine workout. It doesn't matter what shape you are in what matters is your attitude and determination to finally look awesome and change your life.

A typical routine involves a warm-up, swinging Indian Clubbells, followed by a rapid-fire Fitness Kickboxing routine, explosive Kettlebell training, functional abdominal workout, all ending with a fusion of mind, body, and spirit exercises. The body follows the mind so if you believe in yourself and make a commitment to be fit for the rest of your life you will see incredible gains in just 2 hours a week. You can defy the laws of nature by building the most incredible body in your teens, twenties, thirties, forties, fifties, sixties and beyond.
