So I ask, what do you guys think the best type of workout would be for preparing for Q course? Now before you say 'rucking rucking and more rucking' I've got that part covered. I ruck every other day, 25 lb at the moment, three miles, and going up a mile and 10lb every week.

I have until next year before I even go to basic training, so I think I have some time for rucking. But I was thinking more along the lines of endurance training.

How can you prepare for pushing yourself so hard without sleep, for two/three weeks (I've heard from different places, is it 2 or 3 weeks for Selection and Assessment?)

I'm not sure if the exact exercises that the cadre's make you do at camp is classified, but if it isn't, could someone share something I can do at my gym to prepare?

So far, I've got push ups, pull ups, a whole bunch of abs, normal strength training, and rucking.

Oh....and what is phase 1 of SFAS about? You always hear about selection and assessment, but never about conditioning, what will be their focus there? Are you watched (judged) or is it just a more extreme form of boot camp to get you ready?

Thanks, I'm on my way to be a SF man, I hope I can make it.

How old are you?

Are you familiar with the Search button?

Good catch going back and introducing yourself before you got caught.

I recommend searching for and reading the board rules and stickies as well as "A Message to Garcia" before posting again and do not start any new threads here for a year.
