TACFIT Certification

Unlike other fitness certifications, which teach a buffet of unrelated, unintegrated smattering of exercises, TACFIT Academy teaches the pre-eminent system of tactical fitness, qualified by the US Department of Justice and approved by the US Department of Homeland Security: a systematic approach to exercise which earned it the title of the “Worldʼs Smartest Workout,” by Menʼs Health Magazine. No other exercise system in history can boast such a pedigree. With your certification from the TACFIT Academy, youʼre joining a global legion of the best. The TACFIT Academy provides more than exercise technique qualification, it teaches how to teach: how to execute training protocols, organize the training calendar, integrate recovery and restoration, conduct fitness assessments, modifications and customization, synergistically lead a team of trainers, and differentiate yourself and your facility in a saturated marketplace.

TACFIT Level 1 Field Instructor Certification

Open to new instructor candidates, those who need to recertify, or for anyone just looking to deepen their knowledge of the TACFIT system.

Becoming a Field Instructor means not just being certified in TACFIT but joining a global team of people with the same passion, values and training protocols as you. Through this Certification, we want our students to prepare themselves with a deep understanding of our systems to better transmit the same to their athletes and clients.

Level 1 Certification is accessible to anyone, and everyone is welcome to attend. Seminars regularly have participants from around the world, from all walks of life, careers and backgrounds, and with varied levels of proficiency. EVERYONE has some challenge theyʼre overcoming. There isnʼt a person alive that is not facing some challenge. Level 1 is where you will learn the tools for facing and overcoming those challenges, and if youʼre on the professional track, how to help others do the same. Regardless of if you intend to teach or not, if youʼre ready to learn about the core movements and tools, this certification is for you.

Regardless of whether youʼre one of our trainers in corporate health clubs, corrective exercise clinics, or cross-training boxes, or a government assigned trainer for a military unit, federal agency, fire rescue department, or just an able-and-ready civilian, this is the ideal path to getting involved with TACFIT. Learn to use the tools, create alternatives, modify the mechanics to meet changing needs, and adjust the programming to optimize your resources and results. No other certification has invested this much front-end intelligence into the design of its content, presentation and deliverables. We create the best trainers which is why so many government agencies pull from our ranks. Even if youʼre already a good coach, we can help you become an even greater one.

You will become competent to demonstrate and coach the core competencies of the Qual, containing the 6 Foundational Bodyweight Movements: the Tactical Lunge, the Plank Pull, the Sit-Thru, the Tactical Pushup, the Spinal Rock and the Tripod. Each of these movements relates to a particular degree of freedom in applied biomechanics; combined, they comprise a comprehensive and self-sufficient movement screen. Our Tactical Movement Screen gives you the ability to detect, assess and correct movement problems, as well as a toolbox of regressions to give modifications and incremental segues to movement restoration.

In addition, you will learn how to coach each of the 7 energy system protocols in TACFIT. All 7 will be experienced during the certification, and you will be given a different partner for each of these workouts so that you can apply the coaching tools, tactics, techniques and technologies taught at the event.

In addition to the core competency bodyweight skills, you will learn the basics of each of the tools involved in the workouts: from Clubbells, to Kettlebells, Parallettes, Sandbags, Medballs, Plyoboxes, Gymnastic Bars and Rings.

This is a 16 credit hour, 2-day certification course. Though those who pass become qualified to teach, you are not required to pass the certification to attend. You can attend purely for the personal experience and development of your self-coaching enhancement.
