Operation Antifragile: Breathwork for Resilience
By Matt Spaid – Combat Veteran, Strength Coach, Founder of Operation Antifragile
This 10-week breathwork program is built for those who live under pressure—veterans, first responders, tactical athletes, and anyone looking to take control of their nervous system, build true resilience, and recover with intention.
You’ll train your breath like you train your body. Each week includes structured sessions designed to improve CO₂ tolerance, nervous system regulation, and mind-body connection—starting with the fundamentals and progressing to advanced techniques.
What’s Inside:
✅ Weekly breathwork progression (10 weeks)
✅ Beginner to advanced techniques: BOLT test, 4-7-8, HRV, box breathing, dynamic & euphoric breathwork
✅ Tools like the O2 Trainer for inspiratory muscle strength
✅ Daily routines for morning activation, midday reset, and evening recovery
✅ Tactical-focused protocols for emotional regulation, performance, and recovery
✅ Coaching notes, integration guidance, and clear purpose behind every drill
This isn’t just breathwork for relaxation—it’s breathwork for performance, trauma recovery, and nervous system mastery.
Whether you're in the fight, recovering from it, or preparing for what’s ahead—this is your daily reset button.
No fluff. Just science-backed breathing with grit and purpose.
