CONGRATS Ranger! ⚔️🍻 Getting to Victory Pond is something to be truly proud of. Now the REAL work begins. 😉 It’s an honor to know you used the GS Ranger School fitness plan to train!
👉 This is the fitness program he used to train-up: www.grittysoldier.com/collections/fitness-programs…
Finding success at Ranger School requires a very high level of dedication, discipline, tenacity, and Grit. It also requires a very specific type of physical fitness readiness.
The 13-Week Ranger School Fitness Program was built exactly for that, to provide Soldiers EXACTLY the right training system to prepare them for the physical rigors and challenges they’ll face at school.
No fluff, no B.S., no wasted days… only what you need to succeed. The program has been proven over, and over, and over again. Assembled by those who’ve been there, tested by those who know, and proven by those who need it. ⚔️

Congrats to Higgens for earning his Ranger Tab. Hard work pays off! 💪
Success is never a guarantee, but proper preparation will ALWAYS increase your chances.
The 13-Week Ranger School Fitness Program has been the go-to physical train-up resource for years now, providing Soldiers (and other services-members) with exactly the right training protocol they need to show up prepared to dominate the rigors of the toughest training the Army has to offer.

A NEW and EXCLUSIVE fitness program just dropped on the Gritty Soldier Fitness app! www.grittysoldierapp.com/soldierathlete
SOLDIER ATHLETE
The Soldier Athlete Program is a military-centric, performance-driven program designed to build a body that is strong, fast, durable, and capable—not just for the gym, but for anything. It blends strength, conditioning, endurance, and grit in a way that improves real-world functional athleticism, not just appearance or isolated skills. Every workout is optimized for maximized progression in performance potential and tactically placed to ensure no wasted time while also minimizing risk of overtraining.
🎯 Who It’s For
This program is for those who train for more than aesthetics:
• Military personnel, police, firefighters, security forces, first responders, veterans.
• Athletes preparing for military selections, endurance events, or rucking competitions.
• Hard-charging civilians who want real-world, no-BS fitness.
• Anyone seeking a balanced blend of strength, stamina, and grit.
⚙️ How It Works
4-Week Structured Training Plan (6 days on, 1 day off)
Each week includes:
- 3 strength days
- 1 VO2 max/conditioning day
- 1 durability session (ruck/run-based) (ruck not required/optional)
- 1 endurance + capacity test
- 1 rest day
Progressive Overload: Training intensifies week-to-week to drive adaptation without burnout.
No Fluff. No Equipment Dependency: Everything can be done in a gym or the field. Weighted vest and rucksack are optional, not required.
This is the first of a series of plan that will progress upon the last. If you're looking for a training regime to get you squared away, THIS IS IT!
Lets get after it! www.grittysoldierapp.com/soldierathlete

😂 I’ve actually LOST subscribers on this one:
https://youtu.be/RmQ9tkSt8zc And you know what? I’m glad.
This isn’t just about Ranger School…
The negativity and just straight up false narratives that are out there… it’s getting out of hand.
There are too many “influencers” out there that are using negativity to draw people in, only to increase their view count, with complete disregard to the secondary and tertiary effects.
Don’t let them demotivate or dishearten you.
If you have a goal, a dream, an idea even… don’t let negativity or the opinions of others stop you, especially if they are unfounded or spit out by someone who has zero knowledge of the topic.
Naysayers are everywhere, they outnumber you. They will always be there to tell you why you can’t, or why you shouldn’t, or why it’s not worth your time…
Don’t let them stop you.
