Subject: My minimalist training…a StrongFirst Certified Elite Instructor’s journey

 

Minimalism is at the heart of the StrongFirst School of Strength. As shown in Simple and Sinister (two exercises) and the StrongFirst Girya kettlebell certification (six exercises), an “inch wide and mile deep” focus on the essentials and a minimalist perspective can be powerful medicine. While others may barrage you with 150 drills, StrongFirst removes the excess.


What does a minimalist routine look like in the hands of an experienced instructor?


Fulvio Giglio, StrongFirst Certified Elite Instructor, takes us on his journey from Simple and Sinister to StrongFirst Elite and into his minimalism.

Fulvio begins:

My journey to StrongFirst started with questions that were always on my mind, “What is strength? What does it mean to be strong?”


I pursued this question through fighting, training, studying, and researching how to become strong, both physically and mentally, and obviously the name StrongFirst came up.


Everything I read was intriguing, so real and functional. I bought my first book Kettlebell Simple & Sinister and my first 24kg kettlebell and so it began.


I was in love with the purity and concreteness of minimalist training.
