This ACFT Prep program is designed with the end goal in mind. This program was developed by a Veteran and professional strength and conditioning coach who has worked with all branches of the military Special Operations Forces and other Active, Guard and Reserve members. 

The program is developed with an evidence-based approach and goes through various phases of training to make sure you are progressing properly and has complimentary "correctional exercises" to improve mobility and reduce risk of injury and movement dysfunction along the way. 

What makes this program special is that it has been tested amongst hundreds of members and has been proven to work as long as the member puts in the effort on their end. 

This program can be used from begginers to advanced members since we perscribe our exercises based on the "rate of precieved exertion scale" which can vary depending on our current ability and how you feel on any given day. Just make sure you are really giving it your true best effort that day.

Equipment needed: Traditional Strength and Conditioning Equipment:

- Barbells | Dumbbells | Kettlebells

- Light and Heavy bands

- Traditional weight lifitng machines 

- Plyo boxes

- Conditioning Equipment: Sleds | Rower | Assult Bike | Treadmills
