Everyone Can’t Make It, So Why You?

ByDave

Selection courses have 70% plus attrition rates.

And the attrition is that high for a reason:

To ensure only the people with the right qualities get in

And it’s not just Special Operations

Lots of career fields are selective.

Take becoming a medical doctor as an example:

Only 17% of college freshmen who want to become one enter medical school.

I bring this up to tell you

No matter what “elite” path you seek to join, it’s going to be hard

So, you need to ask yourself –

Why You?

And I don’t mean you as a person.

I mean YOU, as in your ACTIONS.

As an adult, if you really want something,

Your actions need to reflect your desires.

If you want something, go get it.

It’s that simple.

Train hard this week – for whatever you’re working towards.

I'm a coach with a passion for helping athletes dominate the toughest selection courses in the world. Over the years, I've trained well over 100 athletes for Special Operations selection courses, including SFAS, RASP, Air Force A&S, BORTAC, SWAT, and MARSOC A&S. My mission is to bridge the gap between traditional performance training and the unique demands of tactical and military athletes.

I got my start coaching hybrid athletes, blending strength, endurance, and hypertrophy training to achieve peak performance. As I worked with more tactical and military athletes, I realized there was a need for a specialized approach tailored to the grueling physical and mental challenges of SOF selections. This realization drove me to focus on prepping SOF candidates for success, combining cutting-edge research, proven training methodologies, and real-world experience.

Whether you're preparing for selection, seeking to level up your fitness, or simply curious about what it takes to thrive in these elite environments, I hope you'll find the information I share helpful.
