Functional Strength, Fascia Stretching & Breathing Workshop

A 5-hour trainer intensive — available for
gyms, studios, and teams

This workshop is designed for personal trainers seeking innovative, results-driven methods to improve strength, flexibility, and movement quality.

These methods represent an emerging approach to training — made possible through proprietary systems not available anywhere else — offering a unique opportunity to get ahead of the curve and begin working with techniques that are shaping the future of movement training.

Led by Chris “Nyame” Simons, who brings more than three decades of personal training experience, along with the tools he developed and invented: the CoreFlow Suspension System and StretchMaxx.

Trainers will learn to integrate functional strength training with the CoreFlow suspension sling, fascia stretching with StretchMaxx, and effective breathing techniques.

The focus is simple: methods that improve results and can be applied immediately with clients.

CoreFlow Suspension System

The CoreFlow Suspension System consists of a suspension sling and a pair of handles.

The system can be used to create functional strength exercises that challenge stability, coordination, and control.

The sling allows for a wide range of movements and body positions, giving trainers more ways to adapt exercises to different clients and training goals.

Comparable to TRX, the CoreFlow system offers greater versatility in exercise variations, movement patterns, and training modalities, while also providing improved comfort.

The system allows trainers to expand the types of exercises they can create without adding complicated equipment

StretchMaxx Flexibility & Resistance Stretching

Compare stretchmaxx to regular stretching strap

StretchMaxx is a pulley-based stretching system designed to perform assisted and resistance stretching without a partner.

It allows trainers to work with muscle and fascia together, helping clients improve flexibility while maintaining control and strength.

Participants will also be among the first trainers learning how to incorporate this system into their own training practice.

Topics include:

• Resistance stretching and PNF techniques
• Improving flexibility through active engagement rather than passive stretching
• Using stretching as preparation for strength training or recovery after sessions
• Teaching clients how to continue flexibility work independently

Breathing for Performance

Breathing affects strength, stability, and recovery, yet it is often overlooked in training.

Trainers will learn simple ways to coach breathing patterns during exercises and stretching to help clients:

• Maintain better control during strength work
• Improve stability and posture
• Regulate the nervous system
• Recover more effectively between sets and sessions

These techniques are simple to apply and can immediately improve how clients move and perform.

For trainers looking to stay innovative, these tools offer an effective way to improve results and develop stronger training sessions.
