Plan Description

Our Selection Prep plan is intended to be utilized after completing at a minimum Block Two, and in most cases Block One and Block Two of our Fioundation Series (potentially for more than one iteration). The Selection Prep plan is not a short cut to fitness. It involves military specific components of training, most notably ruck marching and lower body muscular endurance that is intended to increase your durability and prepare you for the rigors of a selection or mandatory selection/school train up (which many times can be more damaging than the selection or school itself). During this block, the athlete will get a chance to become comfortable under the ruck, find out what boot/ sock combinations work, identify pacing, and build specific lower and upper body muscular endurance which will be vital in either the final block of training on this program, or at the school/ mandatory train up you have to take part in.
Who is the Selction Prep plan for? An athlete should consider this program if they have:
1-Completed our Blocks one, two and three foundation plans successfully (has seen measurable progress, no illness/ injury). Or be comfortable running 4-5 hours per week
2-Has at least 3 months clear run way to implement this plan before any school or selection.
3-Is largely injury or illness free (no major injuries to include tendonitis, stress fractures, etc. or major illness or hospitalization that would have considerably disrupted consistency of training)
4-Has experience in the weight room and can safely and correctly execute major barbell lifts.
5-Has time to devote to this plan. You will regularly be logging between eight and up to 12 hours a week on this plan.
**We understand that many times the constraints and limitations imposed by the military, force an athlete to prepare for an event on a truncated timeline. You can execute this block without having done blocks one or two, however do so at your own risk and be prepared to modify if the volume is too much for you.
If this sounds like its you, welcome and good luck!
