Aside from combat, I am most often asked about my experiences as a paratrooper. To become Airborne qualified (jump wings) you must first attend and pass Airborne school at Fort Benning, GA. I attended this course directly after Basic/AIT training. However, there were many people in my class that had been in the military for […]
Aside from my power rack, the single most important piece of equipment I own is my adjustable utility bench. While I was in the beginning phase of planning out my DIY gym I spent a lot of time trying to decide on a utility bench. I didn’t want multiple benches because my workspace was limited. […]
An often overlooked piece of gym equipment is the plyobox. Traditionally a plyobox is made out of wood, and designed in such a manner as to give the user three different heights (depending on which side you place down).

Safariland’s holster retention system is the next level of design. If you or a loved one carry a sidearm for work, use a holster that keeps your gun secure.

It has incredible stopping power and the mere sound of racking a new shell into the chamber is universally known, and feared. But what if you want a tool that can do more than one job? If […]
It’s that time of year again. The time where people make promises to themselves (resolutions), and an overwhelming majority of these promises are about weight/health. For some people this means enrolling at their local gym, or signing up with a personal trainer to help create a plan. I like going to the gym, I do […]
Throughout my entire military carer I was challenged both physically, and mentally. However, it was always my mental toughness that saw me through whatever hardship I was facing. I watched PT (physical training) studs wash-out of various attrition schools because they lacked mental toughness. I wasn’t the best Ranger, nor was I the worst. I […]
