What's Coming This Off-Season: Pack Test Prep, Specialty Plans & Group Training [013]
Fire season is winding down, and I've spent the last several months behind the scenes building what's next for Rugged Athlete. In this solo episode I lay out the Rugged Athlete training system: one connected set of programs where you can start wherever you are and always know where to go next.
We walk through everything in the Pro Membership today, give sneak peeks at what's coming (a pack test program, mobility micro-PT plans, race-distance running plans, and plans for hotshot, rappel and smokejumper hopefuls), cover the improvements to our 1:1 coaching, and launch our brand-new group training: a men's cohort led by me and a women's cohort led by Coach Sofia.
Group training cohorts start November 2 and enrollment closes October 31. Pre-season cohorts start February 1.
