StrongFirst Bodyweight Instructor Certification

SFB features the classic strength triad—a push, a pull, a squat. The one-arm pushup, the tactical pullup, the pistol. The bodyweight powerlifts.

You will learn beginner to advanced progressions in the big three plus several other key exercises:

  • The Push: One-Arm/One-Leg Pushup, Wall Supported Handstand Pushup
  • The Pull: Tactical Pullup, Hard Style Hanging Leg Raise, Front Lever
  • The Squat: Pistol

Our goal is to make you come away from the StrongFirst Bodyweight Strength Instructor Certification stronger and wiser. You should be able to take a look at a great many strength feats and exercises—and quickly reverse-engineer them. You might not be able to do them yet—but you will know exactly how to train for them. With the millions of degrees of freedom possible for our bodies, it is an endless and pointless process to catalogue a multitude of exercises and their variations: giving you the fish and making you dependent to come back for more. Instead, we will teach you how to fish. Once you have internalized the universal principles of strength, you will be able to quickly apply them to any new strength or gymnastic skills.

“The knowledge of some principles easily compensates for the ignorance of some facts.”

This quote by philosopher Claude Helvétius appeared in the late Prof. Yuri Verkhoshansky’s last book. It perfectly sums what we do at the StrongFirst Bodyweight Strength Instructor Certification.
