The Gun Maker Packet of training plans represents the latest evolution of our Fluid Periodization to programming for full-time SWAT/SRT athletes.
Each plan is 7 weeks long. Together, these plans represent 35 weeks of programming for SWAT/SRT personnel.
Each training session is designed to last 60 minutes.
The 5 training plans: Ruger, Glock, Beretta, H&K, and Sig Sauer were all updated in November 2019 and deploy MTI’s most recent evolution of Fluid Periodization for full-time SWAT/SRT athletes.
They concurrently train:
- Relative Strength
- Work Capacity
- TAC SEPA (Tactical Speed, Explosive Power, and Agility)
- Chassis Integrity (functional, transferable midsection strength and strength endurance)
- Endurance (running)
