Feedback from our Students
Very concise, but with a wealth of information. It gives you the tools you need to be more organized, but also forces you to delve deeper into training concepts and research more for yourself. Love these courses.
Leading the pack! Kilo have shown, again, that their attention to detail and knowledge packed into their courses is ahead of anything else out there. Great for any coaches, regardless of where they are in their career. Brilliant.
Absolutely recommend KILO to every Coach and Trainer who wants to be on top and deliver to their clients.

Attention : Not your typical Continuing education courses… I have attended a lot of courses in the past, but I’ve never got so much value before. I am literally blown away from the information provided and the WAY they choose to structure their content. The presentation of all the courses is masterfully organized so at the moment you arrive at the finish everything makes sense to you. If I could summarize the courses in one word it would be this: EPIC.
The level of detail that is covered is unreal. They take you through every facet of program design, and leaves you with the knowledge to create macrocycles that will benefit your clients. In summary, there's no guess work after taking a Kilo course.
Super informative courses that have developed my knowledge and understanding on periodization. Very confident this has improved my skills and ability as a coach and excited to implement everything I've learnt... Pure wizardry.
I purchased the courses to learn more about how to structure training sessions and long term planning for my clients programs, and the course delivered well beyond my expectations. The knowledge, together with their ability to present the information make the courses one of my favorites. Highly recommend to any professional who wants to take his program design and periodization to the next level!
Top notch education. Stephane and the crew at Kilo are incredible! The methods have transformed my training game. I can't wait for the next course… as I have already done every course they have!
