Level 1 Fundamentals of Coaching Strongman  

The UK’s original Strongman coaching course.

The sport of Strongman is incredibly varied. This course serves as an introduction to the fundamental
events and how best to coach beginners towards executing them in a safe and structured manner.

Educate.Strong's tutors have decades of training, competition and coaching experience across strength sports. Paul Smith is a successful Strongman. He and Dr Chris Fitzgerald have coached many noteworthy athletes and are vastly experienced "coaching the coaches" particularly through charity Mind Body Connect (Charity No. 1173834) and the MOD. 

The fundamentals course covers six core events:

 

Log press

Axle press

Deadlift

Farmers walk

Yoke

Atlas Stones

​​

There will be opportunities for you to coach and learn practical, hands on, real world skills that can be used to improve your coaching services with your own clients.

This is an Active IQ accredited course so you can gain an industry wide recognised qualification to go on your CV. We're very excited to be able to offer this resource to the community. As this is a level 1 qualification there are no previous qualifications required to sign up, we just require participants to have experience with strength training and to feel confident within the gym environment.

Lunch is included with the course fee for each day and there is an opportunity to go for dinner together on the Saturday evening to talk shop and socialise.

We run regular courses throughout the year. The next two courses are being held in Sheffield on the 13/14th December at Structure Sport and Fitness and in Cardiff on the 21/22nd March at Adrenalize Fitness HQ.

The price is £500 with a £100 deposit to sign up and the balance being due in December for the Sheffield course and March for the Cardiff course. The courses are limited to 10 participants to make sure everyone has lots of hands on help and contact time with Paul and Chris. Discounts are available for armed forces personnel including veterans. Please email us for more information on that.

After signing up we will send you the course guide and E-learning materials via email so you know exactly what is going on logistics wise and what you need to complete. Please select which course you would like to attend so we can send you the correct information!
