Re: Military

I asked this question in RossTraining forum. They said I should train specifically for selection, so I came here. I am preparing for special operations selection(Army Rangers), I have 2 years to prepare, how would I use TB1&2 to prepare myself? Also, Stew Smith has an Army Ranger 10 week workou...

Re: Base Building start over!

Rx, as in the abbreviation for "prescribe." It's good that you recognize when you are over-analyzing. You have to break that cycle with action. Look in your TB books and choose some kind of base building now. Decide now, commit now, and start executing now. No more thinking about it. Good ...

Re: Base Building start over!

I encourage you to evaluate your training schedule in light of your LEO career goal. For example, why are you doing BJJ? You seem to have a very specific goal: getting in shape so you can train for a PFT. Is BJJ helping you accomplish that? Or would that training session be better spent on a specifi...

Re: Your opinion please

SE Both TB1 and TB2 contain example SE circuits. I'm not qualified to Rx "exercise A" vs. "exercise B." Given that the texts have a "do this" template, why not start there? LSS I can say from experience that there is no substitute for running. Obviously, that doesn't ap...

Re: close_fox TB Log

Jumped the gun with my last post...forgot I needed to test before starting BB. Got that done this week. Ran a PFT, rested a few days, then maxed on Grunt cluster exercises (OHP, FSQ, WPQ). PFT Numbers were down, as expected. As discussed in an earlier post, my recent op tempo has precluded me from g...

Re: Packs for Rucking

I don't have experience with 5.11 or Condor bags. There are lot of companies out there selling an image. Not saying their bags will explode upon first use, but for a cheap option I would trust an old issued pack from a mil surplus store a lot more. You get what you pay for. The GoRuck Rucker is not ...
