On Day 1 of the CrossFit Level 2 certification seminars, participants instruct each other in the 9 fundamental movements (squat, front squat, overhead squat, press, push press, push jerk, deadlift, sumo deadlift high pull, and clean) that are the core of the Level 1 seminar. Day 2 is a test of participants’ ability to instruct.

In this video, Andy Stumpf is asked to teach the group how to air squat. This is a simulated test, and Andy is evaluated on exactly the same criteria the participants will see. Does he have the mechanics correct? Can he see if the participants are moving well, and if not, can he correct them efficiently? Does he command the group well?

Part 1 is the test. Part 2 is the evaluation.
