The two opposing but mutual conditional forces must be in balance with each other according to the teaching of traditional Chinese medicine, so that the energy and the body can flow freely. The workout is an innovative concept of highintensity performance training (Yang) that combines with Myofascial exercises (Yin). The high intensity side, YANG, focuses more on the external training representing power, while YIN focuses on the internal training of the muscles which represent myofascial training. BAX concentrates on coordination and functional training with the aim to achieve an ideal enhancement for each target group and sport-type and thereby compensating the external for the internal. Breathing is of the utmost importance in BAX which helps to create a synergy between physical and mental fitness thus leading to overall enhanced performance.
