Ready for a kick ass weekend that will make you a better coach, introduce you to awesome people and help you get your shit together?
Of course you are.
Join us at the inaugural Strength Faction and Certified Functional Strength Coach Weekend, on October 7th and 8th, at Beyond Strength Performance NOVA in Dulles, VA (map at bottom).
Why the Strength Faction Seminar Experience is different
.
We’re not going to load you up with a bunch of info, say good luck, and then kick your ass out the door at the end of the day on Sunday. We’ve all been to those seminars, and at the end of the weekend we’re left saying, ‘Great, now what?’
The entire weekend is designed so that you EXPERIENCE the Strength Faction process, not sit in a chair while we vomit information at you for two days.
Experiencing the weekend, rather than passively taking it in, gives you the tools to immediately affect change in your, as well as your clients’ lives.
.
Here’s how it’ll go down:
.
We’ll open each segment with a short presentation. We give you the info so that you can take it in, formulate questions and generate some context for understanding. Then we’ll hit you with a brief case study about how we’ve used that info to help folks improve. Then, here comes the big take home, we finish with a workshop that gives you a chance to immediately apply what you’ve just learned.
Learn it.
See how it works.
Use it right away.
You walk away with new skills rather than just new information.
.

Here’s what a really tall guy from England named Adam had to say about the first Strength Faction Seminar:
“Attending the Strength Faction Seminar was an absolutely incredible experience and easily one of the best things I have done to further Myself as a Coach to date. I knew Todd and Chris would over-deliver and they didn’t disappoint.
The biggest difference between the Strength Faction seminar and a lot of others I have attended was that we weren’t just given information to improve our knowledge base and then run through a few practical technique drills for the big lifts.
Todd and Chris made sure that we left with practical applications for everything they presented on so that we could take that new knowledge and apply it to our Coaching skill set and business immediately. They didn’t just spout information at us, they presented us with the information and then explained how they themselves applied it to their clients and business. This element was invaluable for me. Instead of leaving paralysed with information, unsure of what to do with it, I felt empowered and left knowing I had a greater understanding and skill set than when I arrived.
I know I will certainly be attending as many of the Strength Faction Seminars that I can in the future and would highly urge all coaches looking to make a big difference to themselves and their business to do so also.”
