Our Mission
Extreme Training partners with top-tier training systems—StrongFirst, Flexible Steel, and more—to deliver live, in-person certification events that transform how you move, train, and teach. We serve coaches, athletes, and everyday individuals who want more than instruction—they want impact. Our events are designed to push limits, sharpen skills, and elevate both your performance and mindset.
The Journey to Flexible Steel
Inspired by Pavel Tsatsouline’s words, “strength that does not reach is wasted… weak,” Jon developed Flexible Steel to build both strength and range. Drawing from Pavel, FMS, martial arts, and performance science, his system delivers fast, visible results and a framework for teaching that works for anybody.
