Ranger School Strength Workout | From the 13-Week Ranger School Fitness Program

[@iRMaliciousTV]

So I'm currently switching from reserves to active duty and you and FNG Academy are two of my favorite channels to watch for motivation!

[@GrittySoldier]

🤘

[@keiranmordue9104]

I’m leaving sep 5th with a 11x contract with option 40 attached, your channel is a huge help for prep.

[@GrittySoldier]

Good luck!

[@griffincallaghan2281]

bro no way i leave sept 6th with an 11x op 40 as well

[@DannyDamage138]

get the plan bud, it's a small investment but 100% worth it!

[@mrbean0613]

Currently in pre rasp rn, all I can say is stay decipined with a diet, stay lean but fit, and run a ton! Do as many push ups, situps, and pullups/chin ups as you can. Learn how to rope climb, and train up to running 5 miles in under 36 mins while still having energy left over, ex a ruck run or an obstacle course. Be mentally ready to adapt and have nothing get to your head. You won't have privacy and remember to respect your Cadre. Look up a ton about Ranger History. OSUT really won't be much compared to RASP.

[@blazegulizack]

DO NOT rely on osut to get you into shape! I have an 18x contract and I'm in week 18. So far my run times and general fitness have dropped a little. Came in running a 12:48 2 mile and now it's a 13:30! They let us use the track 1nce a week,twice at the most! Show up with a 280-300 apft and aim to max it. It's on you 100% to keep up your fit ess here. Pt is a joke. Also I lost a lot of motivation. Most of the guys in my PLT are lazy and unmotivated as fuck! Plus the Drills stopped giving a fuck after basic..

[@BCMcharger95]

This channels rucking material has helped me cut 15lbs in 2 months to get to my goal of getting into the army to go be a ranger, thank you so much for all the content and insight you provide! It’s a huge dream of mine to be a ranger

[@ck1176]

Update?

[@bl533]

I bought the Ranger School training program. 10/10 would recommend. It’s freaking challenging though if you’re like me and suck at running.

[@GrittySoldier]

💪

[@wallacevillers554]

I could really use those supplements thank you have a great day

[@zachlyfts]

I want to go with an 18X contract and become a Ranger straight out high school. I've been watching your videos since last December and changed my training from just weightlifting to a balance of endurance and strength and got my 1MR pr down to 6:48, and just ran 8 miles Friday. Thanks man

[@GrittySoldier]

👊

[@barrettrichardson1406]

18x is sf

[@Brickswol]

I don't know where you are in your timeline, but Ranger and Special Forces are 2 different animals. If you haven't figured it out by now, do some research and make sure your getting the contract you want and not 18X by mistake. TLDR: 18X = Chance at SFAS Option 40 = Chance at RASP

[@jefejeffwell1113]

I’ve been telling people the same thing… while you’re able, make sure to maximize your training and save the suck for when you have no other choice. Don’t worry about being ripped, or cold-tolerant, or sleep deprived. That’ll all happen when it happens.

[@brockwestlund2079]

One of my favorite channels…you’re doing good work and helping a lot of people. Really appreciate it.

[@USMCGrunt-jd8je]

Glad to see you producing videos again. As former military I understand that sometimes the demands might make that impossible. Thank you!

[@TomCastor]

Son leaves on 29 Aug w/18X contract. We’ve been following you for awhile and gleaned a lot. Cheers Gritty!

[@edwardpinto7905]

I am 48 and contemplating using this workout, thanks for posting and love the music :)

[@johnricci294]

Aldi's had a great adjustable dumbell set and bench .Got mine for half off .About 90 per dumbbells' and bench . The dumbbells' go from 5 -50 and the bench is very strong and well built .If there is an Aldi's near you check them out ...Great value for beginners like me again ...My ez curl bar disappeared about 30 yrs ago need to re find a used one ... Income is based on a 20 hour part time job plus social security .So I have to buy value and wisely... Currently they are offering a door hanging tricep rope pulldown . Thanks for the motivation gritty. 62 yr old 11b trying his hardest here ...So follow Gritty he knows and keep your discipline up...Do not skip the skip !

[@charlesh777]

Again, so glad you are back. I so appreciate your great videos. You give us motivation and show us an achievement level we may not otherwise see. Thank you. The army is lucky to have you. My "Nobody Cares" shirt is my favorite.

[@austinsundberg5679]

Love the strength plan! It's so hard to both build endurance in running and rucking while also getting stronger. Love the great work, thanks a ton

[@garcia_mjx1370]

Just came across this on Instagram and already hooked. Thank you

[@jitgreen8366]

Navy vet here, nothing but love and respect for all the Special forces, Rangers, Special Warfare and Marsoc guys/Girls out there. Y’all are doing Gods work. I added all this to my routine and with proper diet You will see a DEFINITE improvement in your body composition. Thank You for making this video!

[@robertporter8321]

I’m was actually going through all your workouts I got and was getting ready to go with the 13 week ranger workout just to change up so this video is right there on the money.

[@GrittySoldier]

🤘 get some!

[@vflshred8796]

Been in a funk recently with PT. Haven't felt motivated. But, after seeing this I want to crush my workouts! Thanks!

[@KPen1893]

Appreciate the content. This training is gold!

[@rojjamil7947]

I am from Iraqi Kurdistan, I am a candidate for attending Ranger school in USA in October 2022. I am in my first day of the Rangers physical preparation program😊

[@willway9378]

Keep them coming! It's so hot here, steadily over 100, that it has cut into my pace for running and rucking at a given heart rate and perceived exertion.

[@kevinyoung9557]

Texas perhaps.Down here in Houston it's been 100 plus the past month.Finally this week we've got a cool down

[@grantjones199]

Thanks for the information. A new workout program is always appreciated

[@dahaludaya5570]

Thanks for your help as always

[@shughes4113]

Nice to see the warm ups you do and an example of the programs you offer. Keep it up!

[@michaelmagness1208]

I got around 70 days until I leave for a 12b option 4. at 31 and out of shape it's a challenge to get right so this is helpful

[@DarinTheobald]

Thanks for another great video! I like addition of the skip in the warm up. Inspirational as always!

[@kevinjm17]

The fact that you give back to us the viewers is great, thanks gritty

[@GrittySoldier]

[@nikomora]

You motivate me man to keep my discipline in my workouts, thank you.

[@lyfeizgrate]

Love this channel, it has helped so much!

[@donaldyontz5000]

Look forward to every video, great training!!

[@scoutplatoon8410]

Thank you for taking your time to make the videos

[@df-jv7kl]

I went through 2003. The only preparation knowledge i had was run, pushups, sit-ups and ruck for preparation. It’s good to see all this knowledge on line for all the applicants no matter the school their are trying. It just means that the level of Marine/Soldier/Sailor/Zoomie/cadet will only get better.

[@majorow1778]

Def trying this in the gym

[@nathanaelyocklovich9940]

Always appreciate the inspiration and motivation

[@Degreeofconfidence]

I have been working on consistency first, just getting outside to work out is hard enough some days.

[@BlankStareOO]

Thanks for the advice. I'm looking forward to trying your programs!

[@Artorias001]

I'm honestly new to lifting weights so I've been trying to really focus on form with lower weights and from there hopefully slowly work up to higher weights. I've just always been a cardio bunny so it's been a huge change.

[@GrittySoldier]

💪

[@philh7808]

Had the same issue when joined a weightlifting club after first work through with the trainer had difficulty moving tbe next day... thought doin plenty of cardio and using weight machines at gym meant I'd be good to go... Oops!!!

[@reith2939]

leaving the 19th with option 40, this channel has been a massive help and guidance.

[@DannyDamage138]

did it and this workout works! I passed my fitness exam but sadly I failed the land nav! I plan to go back in about a year so that's plenty of time to be ready!

[@GrittySoldier]

Never quit!!

[@optimusmybff]

I had always enjoy AMIN.O recovery and pre work out, but I definitely want to try the pre workout you are trying.

[@BrOdell89]

That tip on tapering off the supplements 2 weeks out from Ranger School is huge, thanks for that!

[@GrittySoldier]

👍

[@gabrielmercado2039]

Great information!! Thanks!!

[@richj2933]

Another great video. Thank you sir!

[@4ni4r4]

[@tjshull98]

I leave for ROTC advance camp in a few days which is basically ranger school 😉so I'm glad to try this once or twice before leaving

[@kingmowgzi6431]

Glad to see someone else does warm ups

[@GrittySoldier]

Always!

[@pascalp1469]

13:01 I got one of those, it's true that it's very good for biceps curls.

[@carterlambie9767]

Starting IBOLC soon. Glad I have your videos to help set me on the path to success💪🇺🇸

You're a stud! I appreciate your content. Air assault school right after the National soldier of the year competition!!

This is pretty good timing since I'd been looking at the Military Prep program just a few nights ago.

[@roundhousekick29]

Funny seeing you here! I remember watching your Far Cry 2 playthrough years ago! Hope you're well!

[@michaelmiller45ks]

🇺🇸 awesome warmup and workout

[@fordfan485]

Great video as always.

[@geraintjones6401]

More relevant to ruck marching than strength training but I upped my game about a month ago by taking your supp advice from a previous video. Changes include: "alpha man" multivits every day (half dose because they seem pretty heavy on the NRVs). Protein shake every morning and night. Protein shake & BCAAs (2:1:1) immediately after every ruck (3-4 times per week, varying weight) and maltodextrin if I haven't preloaded carbs and need to load up quickly prior to exercise (this is rare, spinach penne pasta is my new favourite). Been hitting the same hill circuits for a while now but noticed definite changes since adopting the new supp routine. Legs are stronger and feel different in size (chafing pattern?). Got some creatine too but holding off on that for now. Cheers Gritty.

[@GrittySoldier]

👍 👊

[@Only6cps]

Which video?

[@stevenb6063]

Beginning the police academy very soon, your program has been amazing.

[@Userr0557]

Just finished this workout today, super simple to do but definitely a good challenge.

[@robbybankston4238]

Thanks CPT. You have some outstanding content. Keep up the good work sir.

[@whiskeyprepper371]

Always motivate my old body to work a little harder. Mailman delivered 9 line and 1st call right after I worked out an hour or so ago. I may be reading to much into this but I had a glass of the 9 line and I feel more energetic and alert. Hope this will be a normal reaction. Tommorrow is a ruck hike day. Looking forward to seeing how they work out.

[@GrittySoldier]

No man that’s what it will do to you 😂 Make sure you drink plenty of water!!!!

[@Clapjames828]

This is a good video, lots of information.

[@boygotskillz97]

Solid work brother.

[@Checkmate777]

How strong do you need to be to be a ranger? Will normal exercises weighted like push ups, pull ups, and sit ups and practicing rucking get me there? Or do I actually need to strength train with heavy weights? Or will I be strong enough just by training normal exercises with weight.

[@dleon1803]

Great video, as always 👍

[@GorillaCrewWarGaming]

Thank you for doing this, Grit! I am retired- 8 years USMC (82-90), Army Reserve 'til 2005. Now a cop in AK. I'm coming up to 59 years old and have trained hard all my military life. I have shoulder and other injuries to contend with, and I have fallen out of shape, + somewhat overweight. NOT liking this "me" at all. I still have a shit-ton of my old equipment and have just started rucking again, watching you and Grunt Proof for advice. I have the heart, I have the desire, I just need to get the OOMPH back in this old carcass.... Do you have any advice for me?

[@GrittySoldier]

Get a plan that you think will challenge you but also will be manageable. DO it. No excuses.

[@GorillaCrewWarGaming]

[@sohcturbo]

I'm really curious about that pre workout. Gonna have to look into it. I tried a few different ones recently. Total war, we go home, pump serum, all seem to have little to no effect.

[@fatherbulk]

Love to see the promotion of DownRange supps, I actually drill with one of the guys on their team!

[@GrittySoldier]

Oh wow that’s legit!

[@leddyvilla]

Is there any reason as to having both clean pulls and military presses versus clean&presses?

[@GrittySoldier]

To put more emphasis on the press itself, rather than as a complex movement. This will build more shoulder strength.

[@midnighttutor]

USAF Captain '86-'93 and lifelong rugby player. I have enjoyed watching your videos they are very well done. Look I don't mean to be a dick, but you have to have proper terminology. Unless you are planning to sing along to some Wayne Newton tune, the warmup where you shift feet back and front is called Carioca.

[@ringtail995]

I really like your videos. I'm a VN era Pathfinder. My knees are gone acording to VA, I don't have anything between my bones. I am determined to come back. I believe that my first step is to reinforce my knees. What exercises would you suggest to build up my knees. Thanks; Chaplain Ringtail Ricky Todd NPA.

[@andrewcoover3636]

How are the flavors with the pre workout? Like the fact that they are veteran owned!

[@louisbetro8319]

Sounds great!

[@anthonygolicz2154]

This is great! I’m currently getting ready for civil affairs selection, and I know that this is a ranger school workout, but do you think that it would still be a good workout plan to get ready for selection?

[@GrittySoldier]

Absolutely. We also have a SFAS program, which translates well into CAAS and/or POAS as well.

[@anthonygolicz2154]

Awesome, thank you! Will be checking that one out for sure

[@anthonygolicz2154]

[@reubenkrueger3373]

Awesome workout! What happened to the old warm up? 😂

[@GrittySoldier]

Different program! 😉

[@averagegamer2471]

Very informative video. What's the difference between shoulder press vs incline bench? Is it just the angle of the bench?

[@GrittySoldier]

Mainly the angle yes, the incline bench works more the upper part of the pectorals (along with shoulders and triceps)

[@adamjones8156]

You need do add the explosive exercise of backflipping by running up a tree and walking on your hands for 15m. Just for fun. Seen it first hand. Dude went to the top enlisted. I believe 21 years. Ranger the entire time. What a man!!!!

[@Envision_Mind]

Would this be good for training for RASP as well?

[@GrittySoldier]

YES! Absolutely!
