SOF Selection PT Preparation

Special Operations Forces Selection PT Preparation 8.16.2017

Shoulder work in the gym is how our Wednesday will begin along with some speed work. The sprints will help with your overall cardio fitness, build some explosion and will serve you well with your endurance. It is also a functional part of your job in Special Operations. There will be plenty of times where you’ll have to sprint short distances with your gear on. It will test you in a different manner than a distance run. This sprinting system is one that some NFL teams use to increase their speed, explosion, and endurance.

Training:
