The Army is rolling out a new physical fitness test, and it is more challenging and requires more focused training in order to excel. This program is designed to maximize performance in all fitness domains to ensure you are ready to crush the ACFT.

Each week will focus on developing the fitness components required to excel at the Army PFT and beyond; including strength, aerobic capacity, and running performance and more. The program gradually builds from week-to-week, and incorporates elements of self-regulation so that you can back off when you are feeling beat up, or really push it if you’re feeling good! 5 new workouts per week. Each workout can be completed in 60-120 minutes.

This program is great for all athletes who are interested in hybrid strength and cardiovascular fitness!

FAQs
Are the workouts sent out daily?
The workouts are published every Sunday for the upcoming week! This gives our clients the flexibility of moving sessions around for that week while staying on track for that current cycle!
What if I can’t workout on the assigned day?
No problem! You can move that workout to a different day and still record all your stats as usual!
Do I have to wait to start at the beginning of a cycle?
No you don't. It’s best to jump in when you sign up! We understand everyone may not start at the beginning of a cycle, however, our programs are all periodized and based on progression so you will benefit from starting as soon as you join.
