WHY TAKE THIS COURSE?

Too many times in our industry we see clubs investing in equipment and not taking the all-important step of training their team on how to use it. To get the most from your Octagon frame it is essential that we complete this thorough training process, which includes face to face learning, assessment and online learning. More and more clubs are trying to launch some form of group functional training sessions using a training frame. Without correct planning and exercise knowledge these often high-intensity training sessions can be dangerous and inappropriate for the type of members. By taking this course you will learn how to design training sessions with our functional frames and also programme these effectively for groups. We want your investment to be a success so we’ve put everything into this course to give you the very best support.

The Octagon frames and supporting products are not easy for inexperienced members to pick up and confidently perform exercises. Therefore an introduction and continual support are crucial to ensure members consistently engage with these products. By completing the Octagon Training Course, you will get the necessary tools and skills to design and run sessions using the equipment.
