Special Operation Forces Selection PT Preparation Week 1, Day 1

How did everyone do on their UBRR Test from yesterday? If you passed but have some weak points, you now know what needs to be worked on. If you failed any portion of it, then you still have a lot of work to do. And know exactly what needs to get worked on.

What we’re going to do now is start back from Day 1 and get everyone back on the same sheet of music. Stick with us and we’ll get through this. We will go back to the basics and kick it off with our Sunday morning rucksack march.

Something to keep in mind, we won’t publish off days/rest days into the 16-week program. Everyone’s schedule is different as are your bodies. Listen to your body when you need to take a rest day or your schedule precludes you from getting a workout in.
