Enter SFG, the constantly updated and refined version of Pavel’s original kettlebell cert—20 years and over 30 editions of the instructor manual later and still light years ahead of everyone else.
SFG—“G” for girya, or kettlebell—is StrongFirst’s flagship certification. While strength is the focus of our school at large, SFG pursues broader “extreme fitness” and resilience with strength at its foundation. Like every StrongFirst instructor certification—kettlebell, barbell, bodyweight—SFG strongly stands on its own—while all perfectly fit together into a system.
An unequaled strength and conditioning system
Designed to meet the most rugged demands
Tested in the harshest military and athletic environments—over and over
Accepting no compromise between performance and longevity
Taught by an elite instructor team, including national team coaches and doctors, and other high-end professionals
Lifting skills taught with military precision
An inch wide and a mile deep - the six foundational kettlebell exercises drilled to perfection:
-Swing
-Get-up
-Clean
-Press
-Snatch
-Squat
Regressions and progressions to suit any of your students, from couch potatoes to world-class athletes and tier-one military operators
Powerful programming—based on hard science, easy to implement
A 3-day event that demands serious preparation by trained athletes
Rigorous testing—a 30% failure rate is common among well-prepared candidates
A lifetime global brotherhood and sisterhood of strength.
Is the SFG I instructor certification right for you?
Only if you check at least one of these boxes:
A coach who will accept nothing but the best training methods
A warfighter seeking a PT method that can be described in Hemingway’s words: ”Keenness of edge…simplicity of action”
An athlete ready to take his or her performance to an all-new level
A personal development fanatic
A hard-living type looking for your next challenge
Only those with grit and attention to detail need to apply.
