Have You Heard About Our Certified Functional Strength Coach Cert?

At MBSC we have developed an amazing educational program called Certified Functional Strength Coach. This is an unparalleled educational opportunity combining self education, hands on learning and a practical exam. This is not your typical certification course as you will be required to pass a written test just in order to attend and, pass a practical exam at the end of the course. Here’s what one of our new CFSC’s had to say about last weeks course



I really appreciate the excellent programming and coaching that I experienced this weekend at the CFSC 1 training at Perform Better in West Warwick, RI this weekend. Kevin, Kevin and Marco are comprehensive instructors and exhorters. Their passion for changing lives was apparent from their opening comments and they delivered all day, exceeding my expectations. Thank you for a positive rather than competitive learning environment. Thank you for so much individualized instruction instead of recitation and a slide show. Thank you for maintaining a schedule that wasted no time and filled our tool belts. I run a large facility, I’ve been in this industry for 25 years and held as many certifications. I’ve probably attended hundreds of continuing ed seminars. This was different. This was exceptional. Thank you!
