BIONIK STRENGTH SPECIALIST KETTTLEBELLS PRACTITIONER
At Bionik Strength we have written and developed the most comprehensive Kettlebell course to date. We have embedded high level theory into our in depth manuals, including detailed biomechanical foundations to help you understand the true power and value of Kettlebell training. We find most courses do very little to help the personal trainer to truly understand how to apply the knowledge and skills learned into their programming methods, and more how to embed this into their personal training businesses. We have focused heavily on this factor and incorporated a detailed, citated chapter on how to effectively utilise Kettlekell training into various client goals. This is what makes our Kettlebell course a must have skillset for any personal trainer, as they will leave the course not only with a great understanding of Kettlebells, but knowing how to more effectively train their client through all training modalities.
Course structure
Upon signing up you will be provided with our elite standard Kettlebells manual. This manual is the most comprehensive training resource on the market right now in regards to integrating Kettlebell training into your business.
Following your learning utilising the manual, you are given a learner assessment folder (LAF), which will consist of a series of knowledge based questions for you to demonstrate your understanding and application of Kettlebell training. When complete this will be submitted for assessment.
You will also attend a practical workshop where we will embed high level theory into your Kettlebells practice. You will undergo various stages of formative assessment through the day workshop, followed by a final summative assessment at the end of the day.
Course cost
A single payment of £150.
