June 07, 2023 Episode 71- How to Physically Prepare for Special Forces Assessment & Selection (SFAS)
In this bonus episode, I broke down everything you need to know about physcial preparation for SFAS. Topics included:

-My SFAS experience
-Standards and times to shoot for
-Physical traits to focus on
-What not to do when preparing
-How long to train for and how to structure it
-Reasons people don't make it
And more.

Knowing what to do is only half the battle, you still have to execute. Getting selected also requires more than just physical preparedness - you must be a well rounded individual.

But being physically prepared is a non-negotiable if you want to have any chance.

There's a myriad of misinformation online these days, and in this episode I uncovered how I would recommend training for selection if I were to go again.

Please enjoy the episode and share it with a friend who wants to get selected!
