Episode 6 - Build a Better Warmup

Warfighters struggle to achieve and maintain athleticism, in part due to lack of consistently touching deliberate movement. Warmups not only prepare for impending strength and conditioning sessions, they provide touchpoints for enhancing movement competency. Maybe most importantly, warmups serve to maintain momentum when total training is not logistically feasible. Build a better warmup by incorporating major movement patterns and their supporting cast of flexibility, mobility, and stabi...

Episode 5 - Own Your Own Physicality

Victory > VictimhoodBefore teaching a man to fish, be sure he has a reason to fish. And that reason must be his and not yours. Warfighters don’t need a formal education in exercise science to own their own physical fitness. First and foremost, they need an influential reason to value physicality. Second, they need to understand their starting point, their endpoints or waypoints, and the terrain that exists between them. Lastly, they need to apply some essential tools like basic princi...

Episode 4 - Hybrid for Warfighters

Hybrid is all the hype for a military friendly approach to physical training. It’s certainly not ALL hype, with huge value in dispelling cannibalization myths and developing both extremes of strength and aerobic capacity. However, we need to keep in mind that movement competency - including multidirectional movement - is foundational to transferability from fitness to warfighter tasks. It is also foundational to achieving longevity that extends a military professional’s career and extends bey...

Episode 3 - A Case for "Combat" PT

Every soldier is a soldier just like every Marine is a rifleman. “Combat” oriented physical training gets a bad rap because it’s neither combat nor physical training; however, I build a bit of a case supporting its occasional inclusion as a PT session. Randomness can be detrimental to progress when it’s all you do but beneficial as a check on fitness. There are also several pros to combat PT beyond the x’s and o’s of strength and conditioning. Former Army Ranger and Special Operations Hu...

Episode 2 - Train for the Test

“Don’t train for the test” CAN be decent advice for some warfighters some of the time but I’m more often in favor of training for the test, especially when it’s a decent test - Not to be confused with training WITH the test. This episode builds a case in favor of training to improve at the Army Combat Fitness Test. Former Army Ranger and Special Operations Human Performance Coach, Nate Palin, offers a reality based approach to coaching the warfighter on how to shoot, move, and communicat...

Episode 1 - Do the Slow Things Silent and the Fast Things Violent

Slow and silent vs fast and violent represent two ends of the spectrum when it comes to movement. Military professionals are best served bringing both intention and attention to slower and faster elements of their physical training. Former Army Ranger and Special Operations Human Performance Coach, Nate Palin, offers a reality based approach to coaching the warfighter on how shoot, move, and communicate more effectively on the front lines and the home front. I reconcile high performance ...

@butterfly_fit_with_viv

Looking foreword to listening to more episodes and gaining some more knowledge in this arena! Move slow in silence, fast in violence!!!! - Viv Episode 3 was great! The part about finding some Copenhagen in your aid kit was great — but def a lot of tips that ring true. Not many warfighters train in full gear — I think it’s important!!!
