StrongFirst Kettlebell 201: The Rite of Passage
Saturday, September 13, 2025 (10:30 AM — 2:30 PM)
Once you have reached the impressive yet realistic “Timeless Simple” standard, you have choices to make. Stay on a monastic diet of swings and get-ups, slowly chipping away at “Sinister.” Or try something “same but different”: the snatch plus the clean and military press, the classic Rite of Passage.
Prerequisites: To attend this workshop, you need to be competent in swings, get-ups, and goblet squats. Attend a Simple & Sinister course to learn those details if you are currently unfamiliar.
The Snatch is “the Tsar of the kettlebell lifts.” Thanks to more muscles working and twice the distance travelled, it accomplishes even more than the esteemed swing. Achieve total body explosive power, ruthless conditioning, and a vice like grip. Burn fat like never before. All with a lighter kettlebell — save space in your home, car trunk, or deployment kit.
Once we have taught you the skills with our usual attention to detail, we will send you off to succeed with a Strong Endurance™ snatch plan.
The one-arm Clean-and-Press will rival any other pressing exercise when it comes to shoulder strength and muscular development. It is untouchable when it comes to shoulder health, thanks to its ergonomic perfection.
The military press comes equipped with the “Rite of Passage” type programming — possibly the most reliable progression ever.
Three versions of the ROP — “Jurassic,” “907 Hypertrophy,” and “Heavy” — will keep you gaining for a long time.
Kettlebell 201 ROP sets high goals and gives you the skills and the roadmap to reach them.
Mindset 101: Heroic Clarity & Antifragile Confidence
Tuesday, September 23, 2025 (6:15 PM — 8:45 PM)
Research shows that we, as humans, are happier and healthier when we're pursuing concrete goals that are important to us as individuals. Yet the majority of people struggle to define what's truly important to them and often feel “driftless”.
For those who do set goals, the next challenge becomes developing the confidence required to pursue the goal with intensity and consistency in an effort to actually achieve the desired outcome. But most people also operate under the assumption — albeit one that's been scientifically proven to be incorrect — that confidence only comes after having experienced success.
This workshop aims to change that!
What to expect when you attend:
- Gain clarity on your most important goals for the next 6-12 months and the future you’re excited to move towards.
- Develop a personal protocol and process to achieve those goals, with easily accomplishable daily steps.
- Gain greater confidence in your capacity to move through challenges, do hard things, and be who you’re capable of being.
- Know who you are at your best, the qualities that version of yourself embodies, and, most importantly, how to express that best version more consistently.
- Cultivate the ability to respond intentionally to life with a simple, repeatable process: stepping into the gap between stimulus and response, and closing the gap between who you’re capable of being and who you’re actually being.
- Create a valuable collection of prior successes and how to leverage those prior successes to create a better future.
- Know what it means to flourish and how to have more wisdom, discipline, courage, love, gratitude, hope, curiosity, and zest in your life.
- Connect with other people who are excited to become the best versions of themselves.
- Feedback of a prior workshop from Meg G.
