TACFIT – Team-Leaders 

“‘Alberto Crane is an accomplished American martial artist. He is a trailblazer and teacher in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. Alberto became one of the top competitors and was one of the first Americans to receive a black belt in Jiu-Jitsu in the sport’s home country of Brazil. He later entered the MMA world, where he earned a stunning 15-5 record. For Alberto, this included stints in the UFC and becoming the King of the Cage Champion.

Alberto loves sharing his passion for BJJ and MMA by teaching others. He’s had his own martial arts instruction gym for two decades.

Scott Sonnon introduced Alberto to CST (Circular Strength Training) in 2007 while helping Alberto prepare for UFC fights. When Alberto got injured in matches, Scott showed him movements he could use to heal himself. Learning CST was a transformative experience Alberto would never forget. He later jumped at the opportunity to become a TACFIT certified trainer.

In 2012, Alberto faced a host of physical challenges. The injuries from his fighting career, coupled with an MS diagnosis, had taken a toll on his body. By implementing TACFIT, Alberto healed himself and now has a second chance.

In Alberto’s own words, “I believe TACFIT is for everyone and I am committed to teaching this health optimization system to the world. I want to give back what it has given me.”

“‘I have been practicing martial arts since I was 10 years old. TACFIT has taught me how to improve my focus through breath training. I am now able to approach and share, more intelligent and advanced training, to my students in a different manner accessible to everyone. I am grateful to Scott Sonnon for having the confidence in me to guide our Legion in Mexico .

“Stress-related cardiovascular disease is the number one killer. TACFIT’s recover-based training allows me to achieve the underlying goal I have for all my clients; to improve their health and increase their overall well-being. As a fitness professional, I must meet my clients where they are in life and understand what motivates them. For most, they want to see measurable physical results and improved athleticism. TACFIT delivers on this and gives my clients the outcome they desire, so that they keep coming back.

When they keep coming back, they are able to reap the benefits of stress-reduction and injury prevention that TACFIT offers. With TACFIT, there is no compromise. It gives my clients the results they require, while enabling me to enhance their overall health. My introduction to TACFIT came through my experience as a Head Coach in the Circular Strength Training system. I was drawn to CST for its health-first philosophy. CST provides the methodology for achieving true health-first fitness, TACFIT offers the application of that philosophy.

TACFIT has helped me become the best version of myself; ready for anything and always the calm in the eye of the storm. TACFIT provides a plethora of stimulating, versatile, fully functional workouts, all of which are done in under 30 minutes per session. Talk about working smarter, not harder! As a coach, I understand I cannot take my clients where I haven’t already been myself. Now, as TACFIT Team Leader, it is my aim to serve as many as are willing and ready to embark on the journey of personal evolution and increased quality of life.”

“My coaching career started with Scott Sonnon’s Circular Strength Training system, which enabled me to organically overcome my own health battles using exercise. I know from experience that exercise can and should be used as a tool towards greater health. TACFIT is extremely relevant as a coach, because it takes all the health-first principles of CST and plugs it into a formula that can be used with all ages and fitness levels, with little or no equipment.

When considering what clients want (physical attributes, weight loss, muscle tone, athletic skills, etc.) and what they actually need (smarter training and faster recovery), no system bridges the gap better than TACFIT. Clients get the results they want in less time, injury-free, and coaches have the peace of mind in knowing the training is improving their overall health and resiliency.

One of the greatest benefits that sets TACFIT apart is its emphasis on recovery, as opposed to output. TACFIT revealed my own addiction to output, and helped me restore a healthy balance between work and recovery. Today, I am a much better coach and human being because of it. If you want a system that keeps clients coming back, delivers efficient results, and offers the integrity of health-first fitness, look no further. TACFIT is where it’s at.”

“TACFIT changes your perspective on training and the way you see life. It makes you more resilient and able to continue to fight stressful situations. For me, it has been the best method of training I have encountered and inspired me to become a field instructor. After being trained by the best TacFit coaches in Europe, I received my certification as a TACFIT Field Instructor in Gallarate, Italy 2016. After witnessing my students on how they improved physically and mentally with TACFIT, I realized my goal was to continue to share the method with more people. After two years of mental and physical preparation, I became a certified TACFIT Team Leader. I am excited to share my experience with everyone on how TACFIT will enable them to make the best of themselves and learn a great phrase in life – “Persevere. Nothing worthwhile is easy”

” After 3 years working with the best Team Leaders in Italy, I decided to become a pioneer and open a TACFIT center in an area where there were none.  That is in The Canary Islands, Spain, more specifically in Las Palmas de Gran Canaria. With this excellent methodology I can train clients, whatever their needs or history are, as a Personal Trainer or session leader, improving for good their quality of life!I first discovered TACFIT after injuring my ankle when I was a Professional Footballer player.  For me, it is the most intelligent discipline that exists in the world today because it combines the three capabilities of the human body (strength, resistence and flexibility).Guaranteed results and increasing motivation are two fundamental areas of my work and the reason why TACFIT is and always will be so successful. Thanks to all members of The Iberian Legion in Las Palmas, stronger together.”

“I started my sport carrier at 7 years old practicing Shotokan Karate. Once grown up, I dedicate myself to kickboxing and then to Street fighting (Jeet Kune Do, SFS) and Krav Maga. Those years teached me a lot about respect, sacrifice and discipline..for myself, for the others and for my body and mind: all precious and rare components that I met again in 3 years as an italian airborne paratrooper and, lately, only in the Tacfit system. I dedicate my last 13 years in sport skydiving untill holding an italian record, an european and a world one..and working as a fulltime windtunnel flight coach/instructor. Since some years I got back into TACFIT and Flowfit to condition myself to be better prepare in my sports, mainly after 3 lowback hernias, 2 broken meniscus and…lot of stress around my joints. Well, thanks to TACFIT I got a perfectly tuned body and mind that manage stress, physical and mental, as never before. That’s why I put myself 101% into it with the valors of my brother Alberto Gallazzi and the priceless support and help of the Iberian Legion. I got my TACFIT Field Instructor certification, followed by Clubbells and Flowfit…and recently I became a Team Leader to contribute in evolving and support “the smartest” training method ever. TACFIT and Flowfit are the best way to condition your body and mind to be prepared for the daily challenges, that you are a soldier as an housewife or a bank employee. Trust in the system, trust in your instructors and… trust in yourself: you will get incredible rewards for an incredible life!.”

“In the past, I used to compete in swim/run biathlons which require a high level of endurance. Training would involve clocking 20-30km of run & 5-8km of swim per week. Couple this with my military career, where training’s objective as a trainee was more catered towards mental tenacity rather than creating the best physical subjects, and one will find that cortisol (stress hormones) levels were pretty high back in those days. After practising CST and Tacfit, the mindset towards fitness takes on a whole new level. I find myself ensuring that the appropriate recovery times are present in every protocol. Also, more focus is put into the transverse planes as it is fundamental in everyday movement. Mobility and flexibility is now something I enjoy doing in order to keep the joints and muscles in tip top condition, safeguarding from any future injuries. All in all, I find myself actually putting in less time working out, more time working smart and find that my physical abilities & quality of life have increased.”

“I am a physiotherapist and also a physio-trainer. These days i found many fitness professionals talk about “Movement” and bring the knowledge from physiotherapy. I studied from Dr. Sahrmann, the legendary physiotherapist who created Movement system diagnosis first ever. And also my background is highly influenced by Dr. Vladimir Janda and Pavel Kohlar who focused on neurological tendency of muscle imbalace and movement impairment also with developmental kinesiology for human performance. I found CST/TACFIT as a very good system for physio-trainers like me. Especially the joint mobility drills and Compensatory Yoga program can be used for Rehabilitation and Preventing injury safely if the instructor has a good knowledge of movement system. CST/TACFIT also makes people enhance their performance without injury and even faster due to their optimal stress physiology. I am very proud to be part of this system and thank you for my mentors Scott Sonnon and Alberto Gallazzi.”

” TACFIT is the freedom to move, I only wish I had been introduced to this system years ago, TACFIT gives you the means to stay young and by young I mean the ability to move, freely, without pain, in essence getting old is just the inability to move anyway! Through TACFIT and the use of Clubbells my sport induced injuries are non-existent! As a dedicated program or a add on to Weightlifting, Crossfit or any sport the benefits are massive, with weightlifting it increases mobility and joint strength to levels that assist you in achieving higher reps with cleaner form, in Crossfit for instance if you lack mobility you lack the foundation to push your limits making you more susceptible to injury, by including Tacfit in your program you take away those variables. Being able to share this Program and change the lives of people no matter their age or background is extremely rewarding. It can literally change your life!”

“I have been working as a personal trainer, performance coach and martial arts coach for last 10 years. When I first experienced TACFIT in 2011, it was a very new way of training to me. This tactical method of training, its well-studied recovery system, useful techniques for coaching, made a real impact on me. After several months of training using TACFIT, I realized that increasing my joint mobility, endurance and amount of muscle enhanced my movements during martial arts training for. There is no need for much space, tools, time and it remains effective. I am honored to be part of this region, and I would like to teach and share this great system to my country.”

” After many years in the world of sport competition, I found in TACFIT an exciting system of training. As soon as I tried it, I got hooked and I did not stop training and preparing myself in order to know it better and become a field instructor. From there I could not stop and I made the certifications of Clubbells and FlowFit. As an instructor it is very rewarding to teach this system, because it is perfectly structured. This system allows students to improve not only their strength and endurance but also their mobility, as well as teaching them the importance of executing the technique perfectly. My preparation for team leader has been one of the hardest and most rewarding experiences of my life. ”

During my life I have practiced a lot of sports and systems. I used to run marathons, excercise with weight/bodyweight, etc., etc,…but it was until I was introduced to Coach Scott Sonnon´s programs that I found what I was looking for. I realized I could “train smart” with effectiveness and efficiency in a safe way and that I was improving a lot in many ways (mobility, agility, strenght…).

I got passionate about TACFIT and decided to get my Field Instructor Certification in 2013 because I wantedn to share it and teach it to everyone. After 2 years I still wanted to keep learning and improving not only physically but specially with coaching and that is why I decided to apply for Team Leader.

It has truly been an enriching experience for me and now I´am very happy I can help others to achieve their goals with this smart system.

“As an Olympian and professional athlete competing in multiple sports over at the highest level over the years I am continually exploring ways to enhance human performance for myself and clients I work with. having found Tacfit and CST I am continually amazed to see the results it creates for both the professional athlete competing at the highest level in their sport to the housewife, businessman and my 73 year old dad who still loves riding his 1200 off road motorcycle. It is about having a healthy body that can support your active lifestyle – at whatever level you choose to play at.”

“As a professional Firefighter and former professional athlete the TacFit system has enabled me to achieve tactically athletic levels of conditioning with a freedom of movement I haven’t enjoyed since my youth! Many years of performing at a high level left me with injuries and resulting compensations that have restricted my physical training to the familiar push hard followed by set backs and injury lay offs. The emphasis on recovery from high intensity and intelligent program design has directly lead to my ability to perform my job at the highest level and more importantly the tools to recover from life stressors. The Team Leader certification is a title I hold with immense pride as it’s an accumulation of all the preparation that went into the most physical fitness examination I’ve undertaken. Humbled and honored, I would like to personally thank Coach Sonnon- I look forward to the continuing evolution of TacFit and my own journey within its framework.”

“As a strength and conditioning coach for team sports and someone continually exploring and searching for the best approaches to keep myself and my athletes pain free I came across the TACFIT system. Partly for my own fun and exploration I started training using the system about three years ago with the evidenced based, researched approach to health and fitness having an immediate effect on my ability to exercise pain free. Lately I have been implementing the mobility and compensation exercises for rugby athletes with great effect. The depth and robustness of the research behind the system is miles ahead of the rest of the industry – and industry, that in general terms, refuses to apply the required critical analysis to what it does. Training for the team leader certification was one of the hardest things I have done, especially at my weight of 73 kgs I questioned my ability to perform some of the necessary physical tests – but trusting in the system and the programming meant I reached the necessary levels. The next wave of TACFIT’s foray into stress physiology will be exciting to be part of.”

“TACFIT – “The best training system for combat athletes”. With more than 30 years of fitness experience and combat activities, I can confirm that TACFIT is the “Worldʼs Smartest Workout”. TACFIT is a clearly structured training system emphasizing its focus on all-round fitness, injury-free progressive training and the best possible recovery. Important for me as a martial artist is the fact that this training is very efficient and gives me more time for my combat activities. Throughout the years of TACFIT training, I was able to increase my fitness, strength and mobility, even as I grew older.
