Certified Instructor Program

The LEGIONFIT Training Philosophy is expanding nationally.

With the growing demand for elite and extreme fitness training and kettlebells training, the LEGIONFIT System has become one of the top training systems available.

Now is YOUR chance to be part of the LEGIONFIT experience and teach our advanced fitness and kettlebell group and personal training classes to your clients. The LEGIONFIT system is based on old school bodyweight and kettlebell exercises combined with the most modern exercise science available. LEGIONFIT utilizes a Fitness Level system and a logical progression from level to level. Whether you are looking to teach the LEGIONFIT system, add this modern program to your gym or to enhance your knowledge of elite fitness (and not to teach), this program is for you!

Is This For YOU?

Are you already a personal trainer (or are interested in becoming one) or have a degree in an exercise related field? Do you want to teach the LegionFit system at your gym or facility? Do you have what it takes to be a LegionFit Instructor? If so, then read on...

Legion Fitness offers five levels of trainer certification: Level 1, 2, 3, Lead Instructor and Head Instructor. Instructor courses are led by Steve Mansfield and his high level trainers.

Prerequisites

In order to be tested for a LegionFit certification, highly recommend you earn a valid personal fitness trainer certificate or a degree in an exercise related field. This is not required but it will make you more marketable and insurable as you take advantage of the exploding fitness training market. You must hold a valid First Aid/CPR/AED certification. Also, you must be personally physically fit enough to endure the process.

If you fail a course you can re-take the Certification program free of charge, but there are still no guarantees of success.

Level 1 Certification

The Level 1 Certification introduces you to the LegionFit program. You will learn the military and extreme sport exercises that are basic to training people in the LegionFit system, but more importantly you will learn the philosophy and concepts of elite fitness training from the Legion perspective. This will include fundemental kettlebells training. You will also learn how to effectively run a group class as well as be tested on your personal fitness. Be prepared to demonstrate a very high level of personal fitness. On completing a Level 1 Legion Fitness certification, you will have the resources and the solid fundamentals that will make it possible for you to train others and continue your own training as a Legion Fitness trainer or athlete.

Level 2 Certification

The Level 2 Certification increases your knowledge of the LegionFit system, training you in even more advanced exercises, indoor and outdoor training concepts, advanced kettlebell trainning and group programs. The Level 2 Certification also has a very challenging performance test component. Like Level 1, you will be tested and evaluated on your ability to teach the LegionFit training system to a small group of "students" that demonstrate a wide variety of fitness capabilities.

Prerequisites:

To attend a Level 2 Certification you have completed the Level 1 course and you must have been actively instructing the LegionFit system for a minimum of six months.

This is a rigorous course. You should have an idea of what to expect from your Level 1 Certification and Level 2 is more mentally and physically demanding. But on completion, you will be able to demonstrate and train the concepts at a high level of expertise and be a good representative of the LegionFit system.

Level 3 (Legion Warrior PT) Certification

The Level 3 Certification will introduce you to training military and para-military units, recruits, law enforcement and special operations recruits in the elite level of fitness they will have to demonstrate in their chosen field. This can include long runs, work in the open water and anywhere in the field, as well as in the gym. Expect to be wet and cold and working on little sleep. Once complete, the LegionFit Level 3 Instructor will be an elite athlete capable of training elite military and para-military units in addition to civilians. A Level 3 Instructor can also certify LegionFit Level 1 Instructors.

This is a rigorous course. You should have an idea of what to expect from your Level 2 Certification and Level 3 is more mentally and physically demanding. But on completion, you will be able to demonstrate and train the concepts at a high level of expertise and be a good representative of the LegionFit and Legion Warrior PT systems.

Lead and Senior Instructor Certifications

Lead and Senior Instructor certification is available to Level 3 LegionFit and Legion Warrior PT Certified Instructors who have been instructing these courses for a minimum of 2 years. In these courses you will learn how to certify Level 3 and Legion Warrior PT Instructors, hold LegionFit and Legion Warrior PT Instructor Courses and administrate these systems from a corporate and adminstrative position. Instructors with this level of expertise in the system generally only teach other instructors and work with the Chief Instructor on modifying and improving the LegionFit systems as the program evolves.

This is a rigorous course. You should have an idea of what to expect from your Level 3 Certification and Lead and Senior Instructor is more mentally and physically demanding. But on completion, you will be able to demonstrate and train the concepts at a high level of expertise and be a good representative of the LegionFit and Legion Warrior PT systems.
