COMMON QUESTIONS
What if I miss a day?
Begin where you left off when you return to training. This program is progressed – each session builds upon the prior session – so don’t skip a session or skip around. Follow the training sessions in order, regardless.
Where do I find unfamiliar exercises?
See our Exercise Library HERE. The Run/Ruck Calculator is listed as an exercise.
What about nutrition?
See our Nutritional Guidelines HERE.
What if I have less then 6 weeks before I take the PFT?
Still start at the beginning of this training plan anyway. Skip ahead to week 6 in the plan for the week directly before your PFT.
What if I have more than 6 weeks before my PFT?
Email coach@mtntactical.com with the time you have and we will advise.
What if I can’t make the prescribed reps for the bodyweight exercises, or the prescribed interval times for the 800m Repeats?
Do your best, and be sure to do the total number of rounds, even if you can’t make the reps or the time. Don’t quit. For the Push Ups, it’s okay to go to your knees and do knee Push Ups if necessary to get in your prescribed reps.
