Modern Athlete Strength

Our top performing cycle from our Tactical Athlete training team - Kratos develops athletes to become stronger, more powerful, and smoke their runs and rucks.

This is not strictly a powerlifting program or an endurance program.

This program combines the two in a way that leaves you feeling jacked and ready to move some heavy weight, while still light on your feet and ready to lead the pack during your next competition.

Kratos has delivered elite results to hundreds of athletes and is now available for you!

Performance Focused
Originally developed for our top performing Tactical Athlete team - Kratos is built for anyone who requires elevated physical performance to complete their job-specific duties. You will lift heavy, run, ruck, and become a better asset to your team.

Fast, Jacked, and Strong
Pack on muscle and move further and faster with Kratos. When we ran this cycle on Tactical Athlete, we saw big spikes in rep maxes while shaving time off our runs consistently. All you need to do is follow the plan and get ready to work.
