The Special Forces Readiness Evaluation (SFRE) is a rigorous, multi-day assessment designed to test the physical and mental fortitude of candidates aspiring to join the elite ranks of the Special Forces. This grueling evaluation pushes individuals to their limits, challenging them with a series of strenuous physical tasks and mentally demanding exercises. SFRE serves as a crucial stepping stone in the journey to becoming a Special Forces soldier, providing a comprehensive gauge of a candidate's resilience, determination, and overall readiness for the demanding nature of Special Forces training and operations. The experience of participating in SFRE is often described as transformative, revealing the true extent of one's capabilities when pushed to the brink. This is a trailer , full videos will be released this summer. Day 1,2 & 3 experience. #specialforces #specialforcestraining

Increase Your Sprint Drag Carry Time with these three exercises 💪🏽 ACFT Guide (Hybrid Warrior ) https://stan.store/Chriskellum #Sprintdragcarry #armycombatfitnesstest

Crush the ACFT's Sprint-Drag-Carry event! Start incorporating these three power moves into your training routine! 💥 1️⃣ Straight Leg Deadlifts: Targeting the hamstrings, glutes, and lower back, these deadlifts are key for building the strength needed for the sled drag and kettlebell carry. The hip hinge mechanics developed here also help maintain form and prevent injuries during the SDC. 🏋️‍♂️ 2️⃣ Alternating Forward Lunge with a Twist: Level up your lunges! This variation not only strengthens your lower body but also engages your core for balance. The twist enhances your agility, which is essential in every component of the SDC. Each lunge and twist is another step towards conquering your goal! 3️⃣ Pulse Squats: Don't underestimate the power of the pulse! By staying in the 'pain zone' and pulsing, you're keeping constant tension on your quads, glutes, and hamstrings. This translates to improved endurance and strength, particularly for the grueling sled drag and kettlebell carry. Feel the burn! 🔥 Remember, the key to crushing the SDC is not just power, but endurance and agility too. Mix up your training with these exercises and see the difference on test day!

BOOST your ACFT Score 4 EASY Steps ⚡️ with this 20 minute kettlebell circuit ►Free ACFT Guide (Hybrid Warrior ) https://stan.store/Chriskellum 1️⃣ American Kettlebell Swings - From a hip hinge position, swing the kettlebell up overhead, working your glutes, hamstrings, core, and shoulders. This explosive movement will boost your power and endurance, key for the ACFT's Standing power throw & sprint-drag-carry event. 2️⃣ Supine Kettlebell Chest Press - Lying on your back, press kettlebells up from chest level. This exercise works your chest, shoulders, and triceps, improving your strength for the ACFT's hand-release push-up event. 3️⃣ Kettlebell Goblet Squats - Hold the kettlebell close to your chest and drop into a squat. This move targets your entire lower body and core, essential for building the strength needed in the ACFT's deadlift event. 4️⃣ In-and-Outs Ab Workout - Seated on the floor, bring your knees in towards your chest, then extend your legs out. This move is killer for the abs and will help you ace the plank, the new ACFT core event. Perform each exercise for 40 seconds, then rest for 20 seconds before moving on to the next one. Complete the full circuit twice and if time allows, start the third round and go as far as you can. Remember: quality reps over quantity. Focus on your form for the most effective workout. 💯 ACFT 2.0 Version is coming soon - If you have downloaded the first version you will get an email when it launches and get a 7 day trial on me, so if you haven’t downloaded the first guide go get it to get a trial on V2!

Supplements I take prior to the ACFT ► Supplements BPN: https://shop.bpnsupps.com/kellum8 Taking a combination of creatine, ketones, greens with ashwagandha, beetroot powder, and electrolytes prior to the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) can provide numerous performance benefits: Creatine: Improves muscle strength and power, allowing for better performance in explosive and strength-based exercises during the ACFT. Ketones: Provide an alternative energy source for the body, potentially increasing endurance and reducing the reliance on glucose during the test. Greens with ashwagandha: A mix of nutrient-dense greens can improve overall health, while ashwagandha, an adaptogen, helps to reduce stress and support the body's ability to adapt to physical demands. Beetroot powder: Contains nitrates that improve blood flow, delivering more oxygen to muscles and enhancing performance during high-intensity exercise. Electrolytes: Maintain optimal hydration and muscle function, preventing cramps and fatigue, allowing for peak performance throughout the ACFT. Incorporating these supplements into your pre-ACFT routine can help optimize your physical performance and overall success in the test. ►Apply for 1 on 1 Coaching: kellumfitness.com ►7 Day Free Trial on my Fitness App : https://my.playbookapp.io/christopher-kellum ►WHOOP Fitness tracker: ( Free First month and Band) join.whoop.com/kellum ►Free ACFT Guide (Hybrid Warrior ) https://stan.store/Chriskellum ► Ten Thousand Workout clothes https://bty.tenthousand.cc/kellum (kellum15 15% off) #armycombatfitnesstest #supplementsItake #ketones
