Peak Performance is a periodized 24-week strength and conditioning program available in PDF format.

It is designed for both the intermediate and advanced-level individual or athlete and consists of six distinct, four-week training blocks or phases to ensure long-term progress, functionality, and maximum gains in physical capacity and durability.

Each training session is programmed for a training time of 30-45 minutes (after the warm-up and depending on fitness level) making Peak Performance one of the most efficient ways to increase physical fitness and improve optimal readiness.

Phase 1

This initial phase of the program is to improve your foundation. The emphasis is on muscular endurance and aerobic capacity training to build up your base and adequately prepare the mind and body for future training phases.

Think of this phase as preparation for your joints, connective tissue, and skeletal muscle prior to being introduced to heavier loads and increased stress on the Central Nervous System (CNS). Don't confuse phase 1 with "easy".

The first four weeks of training are far from it and designed to increase endurance and improve tissue remodeling through high volume, medium intensity methods.

Weeks one, two, and three build in intensity and volume with week four programmed as a scheduled de-load prior to phase 2. You will need this brief unloading period to facilitate adequate recovery.

Each session in week four begins with a 'readiness test' to evaluate fitness and proceeds with reduced volume and intensity.

Sample Training Session

Who is Peak Performance for?

Whether you are a mountain or tactical athlete, a first responder, or someone who cares about your performance, no aspect of your physical fitness is neglected through the "Peak Performance" strength and conditioning program!

This is the ultimate physical resiliency program for both current and former Special Operations Forces (SOF) members, first responders, and busy professionals for increased functional strength, athleticism, work capacity, durability, and aerobic and anaerobic fitness.

Accommodates A Variety Of Ability Levels

Each session is masterfully designed with three safe and effective level progressions to ensure that you are making progress for the long haul.
