Operation Antifragile is programming designed by a Combat Veteran/First Responder for Combat Veterans/First Responders. This is connected to the non-profit Operation Antifragile that provides training specifically for athletes that may be suffering from various injuries related to their service. There are different workout options for different levels of fitness and equipment options.

This training focuses on working in multiple planes of motion while hitting the primal movement patterns. It has a well balanced approach for intense training sessions, as well as some lighter ones to allow for optimal recovery and performance. There is also a focus on mobility and mindfulness to help with overall health and wellness.

Come be a part of an online community of supportive Veterans/First Responders working to get stronger, healthier, and more resilient.

Develop Strength from Head to Toe

This training will not just help your muscles, but your mind. Strength is nothing more than a signal from the brain to the muscles telling them to fire with synergy and intensity, so it incorporates training that will improve this messaging system.

Find the balance in your training

It can be difficult to stay organized after life with the military, especially when it comes to your fitness. Follow the advice and training from a Combat Veteran that has worked to recover from his own injuries and learned how to help others.

Become Antifragile

The definition of Antifragile is becoming more robust when exposed to stressors, uncertainty, or risk. This training empowers Veterans to become the best version of themselves.
