I've attended 5 SFRE's and have had to adjust my training after each one. I've seen consistent improvement, but I'm not there yet.

I adhere to the scheduling and principles of Get Selected, but I tailor it around monthly SFRE's (I'll be drilling every month until August). I mix in some cross-fit which has benefited during some "events" where work capacity and strength are tested. Rope's continue to be a struggle, the cadre are testing our technique as well as our mindset. While my longer runs and ruck time are improving, my two-mile APFT has gotten weaker so I will be mixing in more interval work as well as knock out situps BEFORE I train.

Thanks,
Tweeder
