What is it?
Anti-Fragility Training is a training methodology that focuses on creating robust individuals capable of taking on life’s inherent instability.
This is a physiological and a psychological approach with the intent to use basic strength training, sauna, and cold to fight fragility, frailness, and apathy. We replace these qualities with intention, mental toughness, and consistency.
Whether this means conquering your fear of winter, getting through chronic back-pain, or gaining a physiological or psychological edge – we are the space to do it.
What are our tools?
Iron: we use kettlebells, barbells, and bodyweight training to build strength progressively and safely. Training focuses on learning and improving fundamental movement patterns.
Heat: there is a long list of research supporting regular sauna use as a tool to promote better health and longevity. We view sauna as active rather than a passive experience.
Cold: the cold provides an opportunity to safely test and push our limits. As well as reducing inflammation, promoting blood flow, and acting as recovery support, the psychological benefits are massive: try ice-dipping in -30 outdoors as an antidote to inactivity or seasonal depression.
What do we believe?
- we respect, but do not fear the cold
- we believe in mastery of fundamentals
- we don’t ‘work out’, we learn and polish skills
- we value the power of community
Sessions include assessments, targeted mobility, bodyweight stability exercises, and fundamental kettlebell movements including the Turkish Get-Up, Swing, Clean, Press, Snatch and squatting variations.
A little about the coach:
Training is led by John. After years as a high-level soccer player, he had to rebuild his body from the ground up. He now works teaching others how to strength train using minimalist methods to create profound change. He is a certified StrongFirst (SFGI) instructor as well as Strength and Conditioning Specialist (NSCA). He has thousands of hours experience working with individuals of all backgrounds and abilities.
