THE SEMINAR – WHICH IS FOR EVERYONE (MALE / FEMALE) IS DESIGNED TO:

- Improve the strength of your posterior chain muscles, your “grip”, and your abdominal muscles

SEMINAR GOALS:
- Expand one’s ability to move awkward, real-life objects in a way that will improve fitness levels.
- Explore the benefits of strongman movements and how they can dramatically increase the output of any athlete/CrossFitter.
- Learn how to properly scale strongman movements for the masses.
- Develop an understanding of the most common faults in strongman – from programming to marketing to execution of the lifts.
- Develop the ability to generate huge amounts of force through violent hip extension.
- Develop proper midline stabilization while moving through space under heavy load.
- Understand and learn how to safely use a “rounded back” lifting position for moving odd objects.
- Learn and explore the benefits for getting away from barbells, dumbbells and other standard gym gear.
And above all, the seminar is given by the master in this area: Orlando Rob himself! With three appearances in CrossFit Games, Rob Orlando is one of the top CrossFitters in the world. It is also the founder of Hybrid Athletics, room affiliate in Connecticut, the creator of and a registered StrongmanWod.com equipment Strongman.
Training will be in English, but like all coaches CrossFit Brussels speak French, while coaching, hosting or information may be in French. And there will always someone who can translate what you do not understand, if you have some difficulties in English …
Rob Orlando has been an amateur strongman competitor since 2005. Over the last six years he has participated in more than 15 contests and set North American records in multiple lifts. He began CrossFitting in 2008, just a few months prior to the CrossFit Games regional qualifier in Albany, N.Y., where he took fifth place. He competed in the CrossFit Games in 2009 and 2010 and finished 22nd and 15th, respectively. Over the past three years, he has launched Hybrid Athletics, a CrossFit affiliate in Stamford, Conn., started Strongmanwod.com, and created a line of strongman products including yokes, axles, atlas-stone molds, farmer’s handles, and logs. His goal is to introduce the CrossFit community to strongman movements and implements through this seminar.
