Another outstanding day of learning, lifting, and refining the craft.
From foundational hard-style Swings and Turkish Get Ups to more advanced Snatches and Military Presses, our latest StrongFirst KB 101 & 201 workshops brought together an incredible group of motivated students committed to improving their strength, movement, and understanding of hard-style kettlebell training.
What makes these workshops special isn’t just the lifts themselves, but the hands-on coaching, nuanced attention to detail and the shared pursuit of physical excellence that is unique to every student.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who showed up ready to learn and put in the work.
If you’ve been thinking about taking your kettlebell training seriously, more StrongFirst workshops are on the horizon.
In the meantime… keep practicing. Power to you!

Most people train swings at one speed.
Same effort. Every rep.
But once your technique is locked in…
You can start changing gears.
– Early reps → crisp, controlled and explosive (80%)
– Last reps → max power (95%)
Try this 6 set cycle EMOM.
1st: All 80%
2nd: 4 reps @80 % / 1 rep @95 %
3rd: 3 reps @80 % / 2 reps @95 %
4th: 2 reps @80 % / 3 reps @95 %
5th: 1 rep @80 % / 4 reps @95 %
6th: All 95%
Start over. Repeat 3-5x
Same movement.
Different intent.
This is how you:
– Build power
– Improve conditioning
– Without destroying your body
This is strong endurance.
Save this and test it on your next EMOM.

I’ve heard this for years.
“I want to come to the Dome of Strength… I just can’t swing it all at once.”
Fair enough.
You don’t have to anymore.
A payment plan option is now available at checkout for all Canadian certifications and our events in New York, Boston, Philadelphia, Virginia, and the Chicago Dome of Strength.
Same cert. Same seat.
Just smaller bites.
