The 5/3/1 method is one of my favorite strength building formats. It’s simple, structured and sustainable long-term. This is especially useful for tactical athletes who need balance strength training, endurance and speed work. Small increases in demands done over a long period of time lead to a high level of performance. Try it out and let me know what you think! | Infinite Grit

Hitting the training sessions and pushing ourselves is the easy part. That’s the part we WANT to do and where we feel like we’re making progress. The other ~23 hours of the day are where we determine how much we actually get from that work. I talk to guys all the time who are putting in a crazy amount of work in the gym and doing the right stuff, but still frustrated with the results they’re seeing. Then when you dig into the food they’re consuming (or not consuming), their sleep schedule and ho

Training for Special Forces does not just mean going out and doing random gut-check style workouts. It means getting specific stimulus in training (strength, conditioning, etc.) to create the adaptations that will actually help you perform in the tasks required of you in selection. This means building strength across key movement patterns, driving up durability, increasing muscular endurance and doing so in a manner that doesn’t undermine your conditioning work when it comes to running and rucki

While low intensity training is crucial for building endurance capacity and will support our development, higher intensity runs, like repeats and threshold runs, are crucial for driving down run times–especially with a condensed timeline. But this doesn’t mean we can go out there and do it every day. Speed days come with an increased amount of fatigue and if we incorporate them too often we begin to undermine progress, often increasing frustration. While the frequency depends on many factors (li

Step one to balancing your running and lifting is understanding you don’t need to be in the weight room 5 to 6 days per week to make strength progress. Most guys are used to bodybuilding style programs that are built around hypertrophy, where all the focus is on lifting. Then when they start running, they try to keep that same lifting schedule and just stack volume on top of volume. If you want steady progress in both strength and running, aim for 2 to 3 strength sessions, 3 to 4 runs and at lea

Strength is key for performing under load, but the focus should be on gradually increasing the demands on your body over time, not just chasing numbers. Your bench, squat, or deadlift won’t get you selected—they’re just tools to build the resilience needed for whatever environment you face. | Infinite Grit
