SOF Selection PT Preparation 3.30.2017

March 30, 2017 by Loadout Room Guest Authors Leave a Comment

SOF Selection PT Preparation 3.30.2017

Today is a swim day, so head back to the pool.

The swim test is a big part of the initial testing phase and many candidates fail to properly prepare for it by practicing it in uniform. Get used to being comfortable in the water.

Warm up first –

3 x 30 seconds Mountain climbers

3 x 30 seconds Spider-Man planks

Swim 300 meters with fatigues and boots; swimming with them on it feels like little gremlins are pulling you down in the water from the corners of your uniform.

Stretch well after completion
