Special Operations Forces Selection PT Preparation 11.23.2017

A very Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. From all of us at SOFREP we hope you all have a safe and wonderful day. If your gym is open today (luckily I have a key to mine) it is a Chest and Triceps workout there and then hit the trail for a 4-mile run. Remember to stretch well before and after and to stay hydrated. Mark your progress down in your workout log book.

And then enjoy a day filled with the Three “Fs” Food, Family, and Football.
