CrossFit LEVEL ONE TRAINING COURSE & TEST... What To Expect?!?!

[@esetch5895]

Thank you for making this video! Taking the course this weekend!

[@saarahg293]

Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm a bodybuilder/physique athlete looking to try some new things- triathlon and CrossFit this late spring/summer. I am an ACE certified personal trainer but would LOVE to add CrossFit coach to my resume. Thanks again!

[@WestinSmith]

Sarah Null that’s awesome! Congrats on all you’ve already achieved. Crossfit is just too fun haha but an extra certification can’t hurt anyone regardless so I’d say DO IT 🙌🏼

[@zadzilko]

What was the weight on the thrusters? Were you allowed to scale the weight?

[@JExotica69]

I had the exact same workouts for my class. I am actually taking the test again, any tips and things i could study more to make sure i pass it the second time around?

[@ChristineMichelle91]

My husband got 2:33 min - he’s crazy fast at that workout. Even beat the coaches times. It’s been 2 years now that we’ve owned a box but I’m finally going to get certified March 2-3 :D

[@WestinSmith]

Christine Christensen that is awesome! He killed it!! Those thrusters get heavy for me and I just have to slow them down.... great that you are getting certified! Congrats and good luck 🙌🏼

[@antoineleblanc7264]

Appreciate the video brother. I'll be going to the CFL1 course next weekend. Looking forward to it.

[@WestinSmith]

Antoine LeBlanc oh wow man that’s coming up!! Good luck and congrats on making the decision! Just got done coaching our 5&6am’s this morning. You will have a blast 🔥🤘🏼

[@antoineleblanc7264]

Westin Smith passed brother! Super stoked!

[@dominicpurnell2899]

Definitely thanks for the info man I’ll be taking it in July in Miami 💪🏽

[@iamLiam053022]

Did you find it very useful reading the cf lvl e book guide? Or was the test just common sense and like very brief idea of crossfit?

[@danchente7660]

Thanks for the vid. I’ve never done CrossFit before but said f* it and signed up for the course in Plano this weekend.

[@stevenfranco9736]

How did that turn out for you? Im thinking of doing the exact thing myself

[@stevenfranco9736]

@@aestheticcaveman9987 i have a certification from ISSA for Strength & Conditioning could that help translate over for the CF LV 1?

[@wesyale2887]

Is the test multiple choice? What's the test format?

[@gabbychapinphotography8356]

Is scaling the weight an option during the L1 training?

[@stevenfranco9736]

Question for anyone who has completed CF LV 1, do you recommend this course to a beginner such as myself ive dabbled in functional fitness and crossfit workout but never fully committed and completed certain lifts such as the Overhead squat. Do you think i should wait and study and do it or should i get some more experience under my belt

[@arnoldoalvarez6057]

it is great, I have been doing functional trainings for a long time and I want to learn how to be a crossfit trainer. How much is the course and test? thanks...

[@WestinSmith]

It may have changed since I went through the program. Links should be in the description 🤘🏼

[@cf_raph891]

Hey ! Very cool video ! Thanks, do you know if it's possible to take a course at the same time your at Work ? Sorry for m'y English 😅 I'm gonna try to pass my L1 in few months i think (In France 😁)

[@abez7258]

Nice bro I see you!!! Certified!! Let me know when you get your box , I will be there looks like fun and competitive.

[@WestinSmith]

Abe Z for sure Abe, I bet you’d love it. I’ll hit You up!

[@ViktorGamov]

2023. Still the same workout at Day 1 - burpees and thrusters

[@tribelift670]

That's cool man! Thanks for the info.. I just signed up for the course in Manchester UK, Flying there from Denmark. I better get reading that book only got 2 weeks

[@WestinSmith]

TRIBE LIFT good luck dude!!! Have you taken it yet or no? It’s been about two weeks. GET IT 🔥🔥🔥

[@stancumarius4635]

That was so cool. On sunday im having my cf lvl 1 exam. How it was for you? Questions, etc? Pretty nervous, read all the manual and know things but idk.. I ll pay a lot of attention to the coaches

[@WestinSmith]

Wasn’t too bad. I was worried when first seeing the questions but most people there passed no prob 👌🏼

[@salihal3189]

Thanks for sharing! Singaporean taking the course in France soon.

[@WestinSmith]

That is awesome Saliha! Thanks for the comment from afar! Get it done 💪🏼

[@jasonwills9036]

Thanks for the info! 🇿🇦 Will try do my level one in Cape Town

[@WestinSmith]

That’s awesome man good luck!

[@mattpeters6224]

Excellent. Thank you

[@4evermanutd79]

Awesome man!! I'm looking to get my level 1 certification also. This video helped alot where to start. Question how long did you study before taking the exam? I live in Arlington and I hope and would love to train with you one day and ask questions.

[@WestinSmith]

4evermanutd79 oh man that would be a blast! You’re close by, find me on Facebook and send me a messenger chat.... I think anyone you could sign up for probably leaves you with enough time to study, you pay more if you book only a couple weeks out I believe but just download the level one training guide in the description and it goes over everything

[@CliffHuxtableSweater]

Thx for the vid... U just helped me decide i DONT wanna train crossfit. I thought i would do it because its the wave but i can tell id be miserable. Im gonna have to find a creative way to just make a good living doing strength/conditiining pt:\ good info.

[@WestinSmith]

Do you my dude! Glad the video helped 👊🏼

[@mattpeters6224]

Certainly not for everyone. Thank you for not criticizing. God bless you and your journey.

[@TorayM.]

Love the vlog and thanks for the info. Looking to take my L1 sometime this year. Watching all the way from New Hampshire, CrossFit Nashua is the box I workout at.

[@WestinSmith]

New England Cigar Living good luck on it man, just study that book and you’ll get through it no problem! I’ll have to scope that box out!

[@adarshsingh9231]

I'm going to attempt..... My crossfit level 1 exam next month ...... Could you tell me how important is crossfit level 1 book to read....? Please give me some tips to crack this exam.... Plz........ Thank you

[@WestinSmith]

Very important! Can’t read it enough!

[@c.jmcblocks2641]

[@WestinSmith]

[@c.jmcblocks2641]

[@amyfisher7530]

Was there anyone who modified and did not do thrusters?

[@WestinSmith]

Thinking back, I believe there was a couple.
