  • How To Train As A Tactical Athlete | Training For Selection Or On The Job
    Dec 3 2024

    In this episode of the Assemble Performance Podcast, we dive deep into training for tactical athletes, whether they’re preparing for an academy, a selection course, or already on the job in roles such as law enforcement, firefighting, military, or emergency response. I discuss how hybrid training applies to tactical athletes, noting both similarities and differences compared to traditional training.

    We explore the definition of a tactical athlete, training strategies, and the unique requirements for those on the job versus those training for specific courses. Key points include the importance of building muscular endurance, aerobic capacity, and strength, while also considering the dynamic schedules and high demands these athletes face. I also share personal insights and strategies to balance training with job readiness and optimize recovery.
