In this episode, I break down the different types or avatars of Special Forces Candidates, and explain how far out to start considering preparing for selection based on what category you fall into.
The categories:
Endruance stud (w/some strength)
The gazelle (high level runner, low strength)
The Fit Guy (but not fit for SFAS specifically)
The Speed/Power Guy (Type A and B)
The NARP (non-athletic regular person)
Many SFAS train ups are way too long - and they don't need to be. Listen to this episode to find out how long your SFAS training plan should be.
