This is a 6-day a week team. The goal of this program is to build a solid Aerobic endurance and anaerobic endurance base. Who would benefits from this program? Simple, the tactical athlete or hunter who is stronger and faster than enduring. Every Human needs a solid conditioning base to perform many basic tasks in sport and in life. Don't fall behind in either because you neglected your engine. Having a very high level of strength is admirable, but in many cases it is meaningless if you don't have the conditioning to back it up.
On this team you will not only build your engine, you will also improve your strength. Two days per week you will focus on functional strength to ensure you remain in peak condition. You will also have three focused conditioning days that will ensure you have the conditioning to carry you through any scenario. Each week will also have a focused restoration/recovery day to ensure you stay fresh and ready to maximize your results. Each day will last 60-90 minutes. However, Saturday training session in some cases will be much longer. This team leaves no stone unturned, are you ready to improve your conditioning?
