Master The Squat
What you'll learn
- How to squat
- How to program
- How to work out
Description
In this course, I will guide you through the steps of learning (or re-learning) how to squat. I will cover all different kinds of aspects that will help you understand the stance, movement, flexibility, mind-muscle connection, strength, and other things required for a good safe, and effective squat.
I will explain how you can build yourself or your clients (if you're a trainer) up from not being able to squat at all or experiencing pains to being able to squat deep with no pain.
After teaching the bodyweight progressions of the squat I will cover many resistance exercises with the kettlebell from simple exercises to more complex and double kettlebell exercises. All exercises can be done with just one kettlebell, dumbbells, TRX, or even with a barbell.
More than anything, I will provide you with the knowledge to program for yourself, but at the same time, I will also provide templates that can be used if you don't want to invest the time into programming the best options for yourself.

Hello, my name is Taco Fleur, and I'm a Russian Girevoy Sport Institute Kettlebell Coach, IKFF Certified Kettlebell Trainer, Kettlebell Level 1 + 2 Trainer, Kettlebell Science and Application, HardstyleFit Kettlebell Instructor, CrossFit Level 1 Trainer, MMA Conditioning Level 1, MMA Fitness Level 1 + 2, Punchfit Trainer and Plyometrics Trainer Certified, with a purple belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I have owned and set up 3 functional kettlebell gyms in Australia and Vietnam, and lived in the Netherlands, Australia, Vietnam, Thailand, Spain, Italy, and I’m currently living in Albania.
The first thing I'd like you to know about me is that I do not know everything, I don't pretend to know everything, and I never will. I'm on a path of life-long learning. I believe there is always something to learn from someone, no matter who they are. I've been physically active since the day I arrived on this earth in 1973. I got serious about training in 1999, touched a kettlebell for the first time in 2004, and got serious about kettlebell training in 2009. I'm here to do what I love most, and that is to share my knowledge with the world.
Some of my personal bests are 1-hour of more than 1,000 unbroken clean and jerks with a 16kg kettlebell, 400 burpees performed within one hour; 500 kettlebell snatches, 500 swings and 500 double-unders completed in one session; 250 alternating dead clean and presses in one session with 20kg; 200 pull-ups in one session; 200 unbroken kettlebell swings with a 28kg; most kettlebell swings completed in one session with a 28kg (1,501); most total kettlebell swings done in 28 days with a 28kg (11,111); windmill with a 40kg kettlebell; lugged a kettlebell up a 1,184m mountain; 160kg dead lift; 250 alternating dead clean and presses in one session with 20kg; 100 snatches on sand with a 24kg kettlebell, 85kg Olympic Squat Snatch. I mention these PBs not to boast but to demonstrate that I have a good understanding of technique and movement across different areas.
My own training and goals are geared around GPP (General Physical Preparedness) which involves kettlebell training, calisthenics, and CrossFit. I like high-volume reps but also like greasing the groove now and again. My main goals are to remain as agile as possible, remain mobile, training in as many planes of movements as possible, and learn as many different exercise combinations and movements as possible while having fun and enjoying Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. I'm no Arnold Schwarzenegger and never will be, but strength is not solely defined by physical appearance and huge bulging muscles.
