CrossFit Level 2 Trainer

The Level 2 Certificate Course is an intermediate-level course that builds on the concepts and movements introduced at the Level 1. This course is ideally suited for any CrossFit trainer serious about delivering quality coaching.

Level 2 participants enhance their understanding of the CrossFit methodology, program design, and implementation. They also advance their skills while coaching others in movements and workouts.

There are two days of classroom work, one-on-one training, and group sessions. Participants should come prepared to be deeply engaged. Classroom sessions are discussion-based, and each student will lead individual and small group sessions. Peers and instructors provide guidance and feedback throughout the weekend.

At the completion of the Level 2 Course, participants will be able to:

• Identify and demonstrate the essential qualities of an effective trainer.

• Identify and assess static and dynamic faults of functional movements.

• Identify and describe common themes of functional movements.

• Implement appropriate movement corrections using verbal, visual, and tactile cues.

• Effectively communicate the points of performance for functional movements to individuals and groups.

• Exhibit appropriate presence, attitude, and group management skills.

• Design and assess the effectiveness of a program.

• Assess an individual’s current level of fitness and athletic capacity and apply appropriate scaling.

• Understand, and implement the key components of an effective class.

• Identify and discuss effective nutrition strategies for education, implementation, compliance, and maintenance.
