Simply put - the capacity to withstand tons of sudden force and reflexively swing your legs underneath you trumps the ability to perform a movement that is 10x more removed from a real world (threat inducing) scenario
If we’re talking purely GPP and capacity driven - attribute centric training then effective strength training is still an asset to being functional
That’s not what I’m referring to though
The reality is most people existing under the functional training umbrella employ modalities that strip all meaningful inputs from the training process
What’s left is a superficial representation of open world movement that mimics with stunning imprecision the self organizing nature of movement
You can’t mimic it but you can train attributes found within it
