At BHM, everything starts with functional movement, made for real people with real lives. The five core movement patterns — gait, hinge, squat, pull, and push — are the foundation of how we move every day. Training them builds strength, confidence, and freedom in motion, whether you’re in the gym or just living life.
The Gait Cycle
- Builds mobility and balance for walking, running, and climbing stairs.
- Improves coordination between upper and lower body movements.
- Supports cardiovascular health and joint longevity.
Hinging
- Strengthens the posterior chain — essential for lifting, jumping, and bending safely.
- Protects the spine by reinforcing proper mechanics in daily movements.
- Enhances power and performance for real-world strength.
Squatting
- Builds lower-body strength and stability for sitting, standing, or getting up from the floor.
- Promotes hip, knee, and ankle health through full, natural range of motion.
- Improves core stability and overall functional strength.
Pulling
- Strengthens the back, shoulders, and arms for lifting, carrying, or climbing.
- Improves posture by balancing out forward-leaning habits.
- Enhances grip strength and upper-body coordination.
Pushing
- Builds chest, shoulder, and triceps strength for carrying, pressing, and reaching overhead.
- Improves shoulder stability and upper-body control.
- Develops the connection between your core and upper body for smoother, stronger movement.
Each movement pattern trains your body to move better, not just work harder. Helping you stay capable, confident, and ready for real life.
