Theadjective military is used to identify something hard, strict, rigorous that refers to the world of the armed forces and soldiers, where discipline and adherence to certain rules prevail.
Since 2013, military is also the adjective that defines a new type of gymnastics: dynamic military gymnastics.
What are they all about?
It is a sport discipline, recognized for all purposes by the Coni, which is based exclusively on the performance of free-body exercises, without the aid of any machinery or small equipment.
One does not train in a fully equipped environment, with air conditioning and all kinds of comforts.
The comforts of daily life have lazy people leading them to want to do less and less and to complain about having to walk up a flight of stairs or a few extra meters for not finding a convenient parking space.
Dynamic military gymnastics frees people from all the superfluous to re-establish, perhaps somewhat abruptly, a direct and concrete contact with their bodies.
The fear of succeeding
People’s uncertainties do not arise from fear of not succeeding, but from fear of succeeding.
That is why it is important to have strong conviction.
People need to be convinced rather than involved in doing something.
Involvement comes from the outside and can help take a first step toward change, but without strong conviction to back it up they will only be vain efforts.
This is the mantra on which this branch of gymnastics is based.
Regaining the ability to struggle
Getting or getting back on track after a period of inactivity or sedentariness is never easy.
Sometimes it might even be a bit traumatic, but we need to find the strength to overcome the initial difficulties and obstacles.
This will also give us the tools to cope with any new obstacles that may get in our way.
Dynamic military gymnastics does not discount anyone; one must always give one’s all.
You will hardly finish a workout with any energy left in your body: you train by giving everything you have, without sparing yourself.
The results will come as a reward for your hard work.
No one stays behind
Some people might think that this is a type of training for overachievers and excessively strong-minded people.
Certainly it is not a type of training for those who do not feel like struggling.
Otherwise, everyone is welcome and can join, as long as one shares the principles and ideology based on the total absence of competition among individuals.
No one wants and should excel or desire to prevail over the other.
Those who stop or fall behind are not left alone, but are supported by the whole group, which extends the training time so that we all finish the exercise together.
One finishes what one has started together.
This modus operandi creates a strong cohesion and sense of belonging to the group, just as happens in some running groups. Try it to believe it!
