PB Long Beach



This past weekend I was fortunate enough to attend the Perform Better Summit in Long Beach California.

This is probably my 5th summit to attend and let me tell you, each time it gets better and better. The video above is from Alwyn Cosgrove's hands on session about Semi Private training. The content was great but being the kettlebell enthusiast that I am, I just have to give my opinion and this is just my opinion.

The video above shows fitness professional using kettlebells some have good form and some have terrible form, but here is where the problem is with me, some of these fitness professionals have very little KB training but after this weekends seminars they will be all pumped up and will start including KB's with the training of their clients, when they themselves hardly know what they are doing.

I don't teach Olympic lifts, why? Because I have not had formal training in O-Lifting the same for KB's get some training invest in yourself and learn, of course I recommend the "RKC" it was the original and still the best, but I will admit that there are other great coaches out there who do have KB certifications. But please take this serious if your a trainer get trained in KB's if your a client make sure your trainer has been properly trained and is certified in KB lifting. Rant Over!

RKC Instructor- Get Certified
