This is a 16 week program designed to get you ready for military schools like Ranger School, RASP or SFAS. Although these are very different paths, the physical capacities are quite similar.
-You will need a massive aerobic engine.
-You will need a base of strength
-You will need to carry heavy loads for long periods of time.
-You will need to remain as healthy as possible until the end.
This program is also a solid pick for individuals heading to longer SWAT/Tactical selections.
