Special Operations Forces Selection PT Preparation Week 6, Day 5

Back to the gym on Thursday morning for a Chest and triceps workout to include some pushups, sit-ups, and kip ups. Then a 5-mile ruck march with 45-pounds minimum.

If you’re on the East Coast, chances are you’re getting buried with a pretty intense snow storm today. Be careful, and err on the side of caution. And if the weather is a no-go, then by all means, stay inside and work on alternatives like an elliptical or a treadmill.

Remember to stay hydrated and mark your progress down in your workout log book.
