Some people think we are helping candidates TOO much. Thoughts?
I think it would be interesting to see the statistics behind the success of people who absorb this type of content vs those who do not.
You'd only be helping too much if you went to selection for them.
Definitely not worse than them lowering their standards so that women can get it, if that's true 🤷♂️
Those people aren't giving enough credit to the selection cadre. Nobody's achieving tougher mental fortitude, or an improved ability to function while stressed and exhausted, by watching UA-cam.
no because when the time comes, only they will be the ones walking through the fire
Says a short sprint followed by the words "12 miles." Yall are a special breed of humans.
When I was working through 18A fitness last year, that helped a ton with dropping my mile time. Rotating distances, speeds and running in specific heart rate zones are all great.
nice!
as a guy who lives in a village in the middle of nowhere, can you tell me how i should train to run? i only have roads full of holes, so i can't go to a place like a track to see my distance for example to do sprints
Don't even think about the distance, just run at a steady pace. Push it further and further each time, sorting for a bit then jog, walk a few seconda then jog again. If you can't jog it run, walk it while recruiting a song verbally and out loud. Point is, never think about the number of time until you're done, just continue pushing it to aid falling into this trap of thinking, "Just ______ more until I'm done."@@patriotatuga5757
love the way you spit out the “PWWWWHATS UP EVERYONE” in the intro. HUGE energy, thanks for and keep up these awesome videos!
thanks! little Peter Mckinnon inspiration there
@@FNGACADEMY caught that right away
I love the videos. You have got me, an old Dad, rucking again.
I totally agree with most of your comments about rucking.
I especially agree with comments about running shoes.
Even at my fittest, I was 175 pounds. Shoes were critical.
Get to serious running stores.
Now, if the option is available and one has funds, I kept 2 sets of shoes.
One for distance and one set of ultralight for PT tests.
I’ve been using the FNG V2 Ruck Trainer on leg days to do burnout sets of lunges. At +90lbs that thing is COMFORTABLE AF. Great work, FNG Team.
Everyday when I was doing selection and p company the ds used to tell us every day that the more you sweat in training the less you'll bleed in war and they were correct. It didn't stop people getting zapped because war but good aggressive training in small unit tactics and the brilliant first aid training will save blood and lives. As for training I did 4 month up on the Moors at Northumberland had me physically prepared. Those para veterans on the ds still nearly drove me to quitting but I'd been told this moment would come, you hit the wall, your mind starts playing tricks so from that point I took it an hour at a time. That wall never came back. All I'm saying is when you think you're done just try another 200-400 metres and you never know, you might get that second wind. Respect from the UK although I'm still upset that some green berets who in Baghdad were living in a virtual palace with amazing grub and they wouldn't give us young paras any of it. Although they did have an amazing barbecue before they left. Think it was the tenth group and it was 05 I think when we still were getting fucked on route Irish but for Iraq it was pretty quiet otherwise. Might have the year wrong. Keep doing good and fighting the good fight buck, massive salutations brother

Going out in Oct. Stoked
Great stuff as always. Going to get a ruck and some boots very soon to prepare for basic/selection
nice! get after it!
love you buck im not an american but you inspired me in my next life to be a green beret 😍🇲🇽
I bought your book yesterday. it was waiting for me when I got off work about to sit down and start reading it
Lmao I forgot I had my playback speed at x.5 and for a second I thought Buck was either super high or had a concussion
LMFAO!
9:05 Facts Hokas best shoes I've ever had for durability, support, and comfort but you are exactly right they are goofy looking with weird colors and they look bulky
my wife hates them, but damn they are good
My wife loves her Hoka, and keeps trying to make me buy a pair, but they are ugly….i use Merrells
Absoultely love your work man!
Love your videos Buck!
Never heard of a foot scanner before, I have large flat feet so finding shoes can be difficult, thanks for the info Buck! 👍🏽
Glad to help!
Thanks Buck!!!!
hello got some awesome info im a current emt been contemplating this decision for awhile and helped me get prepared for it
Love your content man. If you guys haven't already done it could you do a video on the language learning schools SF guys go to?
perfect timing... im trying out for 20th group in september
nice!! get after it!
Just got your book bro on Audible books. Looking forward to it. I'll be listening to it on my long runs
Another killer video my friend!
thanks man!
Ooooo buck working the obliques
Buck! Love the content (and the book) we all know your music taste is great, your old song (tainted by revision) was great. I go to the comments and multiple people claim to have found that amazing song because of you. I was just wondering if a FNG ACADEMY music playlist could ever come to fruition? I am sure it will be a playlist as badass as you!
never thought about it lol cool idea though
I had 90 in my army issue ruck, the one with the plastic back brace type frame and you're right absolutely terrible
Great video as always Sean
thank you!
Thank you!
Another great video brotha!
Appreciate it!
lovin' it
glad to help!
Great insight for the new guys and those looking to join up looking at these specialized jobs as an option. Your feet WILL love you for getting the foot scan and appropriate footwear.
Another vital skill is the ability to be adaptive with general technical aptitude and analytical abilities. My old version/ original GT score on the ASVAB fortified by ability to do option 40 contract for the 11x/ Baby SOF entry program once Infantry OSUT was completed, huge asset to be mechanically inclined from the get-go. A good episode on these factors would be great to cover in depth too, especially with how much of that is implemented in SFAS and Q-Course and additional Schools afterwards.
Let's see a collab with the "Life is a Special Operation" Channel and with Mike Glover Actual/ Fieldcraft Survival!
good video buck!!
Thanks 👍
Sean, if possible. Can you go over on the differences between the Special Forces Groups. Do you get to pick where you want to go after the Q course?
will do!
i had this same question
@Engelbert Humperdinck uh. It’s based on the language you end up learning.
Yep..!
I just graduated from OSUT! Going to Ft Bliss on the 29th. I want to go to Selection after I get my EIB and Ranger School.
I’m late to the party!😭😂 As always the videos are pure gold!!
thanks homie
What’s up buck ? I’m going to selection soon while I’m still in the navy. Could you possibly do a video on what I should expect when I get to selection while in another service . Thank you
Great video champ 🙌
Appreciate it!
Thank you for the info, I want to be a USAF PJ and I appreciate it!
get it!
Fng academy pikes peak event? That could be dope and good training - coach edges hanging abs are amazing 18a is the move
You’re the GOAT
just trying to give back, thanks man
Pikes Peak, Carson!
Hey Sean, thanks for always putting out great content to help those of us aspiring to fill the shoes you once wore. It has been really helpful with developing a good plan for training. Furthermore, I was curious what a standard amount of hand release push ups would be for someone in SF? I am sure it’s in the extended scale but would 80 be a good estimate?
Hey Sean, could you do a video about some of the various opportunities in SF? I recently saw your K-9 video and I had no idea that was an option for SF. I'm just wondering what else is out there! Thanks again for your time and the knowledge you're providing.
Will do!
If you reduce your body fat percentage to the ideal range your endurance and available energy will be optimal since your heart does not need to support the extra tissue but your body isn't in 'starvation mode'.
eating in a surplus of calories is good for training as it helps you push yourself further but you need to be well used to functioning in a steep deficit too.
If this video is directed at highschool/college kids then I suggest a video dedicated to hard baseline facts like these that will optimize the process.
If you have the insurance and time, go to a physical therapist that specializes in strength training and recovery.
Informative
I'm currently going through the official 8 week sfas fitness handbook, it's a progressive buildup of rucking, running, mobility, and stretching.
I've found being on a program takes the guesswork out of training and forces you to do the runs when you'd rather lift weights.
Still trying to decide on option 40 vs 18x.
Cardio is waay more useful than weight lifting in preparation. Just do body weight exercises. Don't lift weights until after you've made it. You don't want to build anymore muscle that you have to carry around.
Hey Buck. Found your channel. Love your content! Saw your video talking about the Ukraine situation. Wondering with your FNG academy, do you actually have academy to train regular people as SF?
Hey brother, thanks for all the great instruction. I cannot find the boots you mention. What specific model do you suggest?
Pike's Peak!? That's like 30mins from me!
Can confirm, I was sent a counterfeit axe after shopping on amazon
I bought the ruck trainer 2.0. When will your canteens and straws being available again.
Hey buck, I’m trying to go 18x as soon as I’m old enough, I have the asvab scores to get in and my overall fitness level is getting to the point where I think I could make it through selection but I was wondering what rucksack and boots you would recommend buying as a civilian so I can get used to the feel of what would be issued to me in basic?
Are you able to use your own ruck through selection and the Q course? If so that helps a lot. I was thinking you couldn’t use your own ruck
Hey Buck, what are the different factors in play that would cause someone to be a 21 day non-select?
going to meps this week to phys. if i pass i’m signing with an 18X
get it!
Hello Sean. Should I run and Ruck where there are hills and mountains or go somewhere tropical and go for sand runs and Rucks there? What do you think is best for SF?
Could you do a comparison between national guard SF and active? You’re more in depth. Every other video I’ve seen is pretty much made by national guard people so it’s “the cream of the crop” so to say..
Peter McKinnon intro again!
Great video! Two questions:
1) What were the pros and cons of tall SF guys that you worked with (I’m 6’5, 200 lbs lean)?
2) I’ve been debating on the usefulness of “babying” my body in training (I.e. great fitted shoes/boots, supplements, etc.) just due to me not having access to any of that once I’m in selection and the Q. I don’t want me feet/body to go through a drastic adaptation process to assigned gear being less than ideal compared to the stuff I train(ed) with. Thoughts?
Definitely dont take workout supplements, but you can wear the boots you bring so long as they in regulation AR 670-1
You’ll have your own boots and socks at sfas
@@ML-nj8fq I would disagree on not taking supplements, although you won’t be able to use them once your in, the growth achieved with them in my opinion outweighs the loss. (Disregarding things like pre workout which can be addictive) but creatine and protein power/mass gainers are nice. Each to their own though, I’m trying to gain muscle so my journey might look a little different.
@@SMM_NAA Sorry I meant all those preworkouts and pump boosters and all sorts of other pointless stuff. Protein and creatine are good but not necessary. You should be training in various states of uncomfortable (ie fasted, without using caffeine, in the weather, not having a perfect preworkout nutrition etc.)
Does it take a long time to get the red headband? 😊
Hey Sean, quick question. I want to enlist right out of high school. Of course I won’t be of age, I’ll be 18. Can I go to Ranger Regiment for 2 or 3 years, then once I’m of age, can I transition to SF? Thanks.
I wanna know your opinion on 70-80 lbs hike with insane steep incline for a short distance. Its harder in some ways and easier than some ways comparded to FRM’s while i was in the marines
If you ever end up in Hawaii im talking about the pillbox trails. Im gonna attempt the FULL crouching lion trail next week as my last hike while on island. Then off to east coast to acclimate myself and start pushing harder again once i get off of this 500 calorie diet i am on
Hey Buck can you talk about Oda 3212
Do you have any advice on language learning what are your methods to learn a Arabic. ( I have been trying to learn Arabic for 2 years now)
Quick question on the 18A fitness program… when I click “buy” it shows all the information I need to input. However, it says under the price “Starting next Monday”. Does that mean I have to wait until Monday to begin the plan or can I view and begin the plan as soon as I purchase it?
Hey my name is John C Cesare I should be going to basic here soon. I have always wanted to be SF and now that I am going I have several questions. And I don't want to sound presumptuous or any of the sort. But I'm OCS qualified and after basic that is where I'll be going to next. After OCS I am going to choose infantry as my mos until I become a First Lieutenant. After I become a First Lieutenant how is the process different from going in as enlisted and can they prevent you from going SF because you are an officer?? Do you know, or know of someone that can explain it better for me and help me out.
I heard a lot of guys fail land nav, I’m following 18 A fitness and following a few other programs for fitness, but how should we prepare for land nav?
What is the name of your intro music?
@FNG ACADEMY
Sean I noticed you don’t have the aluminum frame on your tactical tailor ruck. Is there a reason why? Maybe that’ll help keep it more straight against your back.
it's aluminum
@@FNGACADEMY are you saying that it’s fragile ?
Where's the OG outro music?? I haven't watched your videos in a while, I'm going SF in 2 weeks. I was already singing the song and then you changed it... Not cool man 😪
Hope everything is good with you, thanks for all the tips!!
Could we get sum more videos with Kurt
for sure!
Hey buck so can i join the marine corps then go try out SF in later in the future like after 4 years because i still am not in shape for it or do i have to go in the army how does it work
yes you could, but if you wanted to stay with marines and do special operations look into marine raiders
I’m getting ready to sign the papers for 18x, I have question though. I’m married and was curious at what point in the pipeline my wife will be able to move into base housing? I can’t seem to find any answers, thanks
after selection once you start the Q
What do you think about being “to old” to join The Army and go Ranger or SF..? I’m 45, but I’m a Navy Veteran. I served 8 years.
Too old
Buck do you know If 18x's get reclassed if they fail, or do they get put into 11x?
11B most likely, they say needs of the Army but you already did the training for 11B so wouldn't make sense for something else
Also do you have any tips for being able to do more and more pushups apart from doing more of them in correct form?
not really, reps are everything, i use to do pushups every single day, my body would start to adapt and they got easy
Ok, should I take a 1 day break or can I do pushups every day and it won't hurt my body assuming I will be using proper form.
@@s.e.d4561 you know about those jacked inmates bro? I heard from some interview that an ex-con did pushups every day but not to failure or until he broke something. But he just did em everyday.
@@raskal5988 Interesting...
@@s.e.d4561take with a grain of salt
FNG Academy what state you based out of? We're just below Piles Peak in Colorado! If your close hit me up!
Headed that way in May
@@FNGACADEMY Early or late May ? Last week of May I'll be heading to Missouri for a One Shepherd leadership course, but if your here earlier I'll come meet you somewhere? I need to do a gear shake down anyways.
... that or you can even come camp out in my yard for a night if you need a place to stray on your way through?
Either way, I like what you do and I guess keep up the good work; and seriously hit me up when you come out. I'd do some kind of collaboration video with you. I think my people would definitely like watching your content, and I think it would be cool to introduce them to you.
So if I decide to go sf do I pick mos cause I’m a shooter I want to be in it I’m that hard charging kid new guy but is every mos in the 18 series a shooter or is it like only 18 bravo does the shooting and can I pick my mos or is it like you get what we choose cauee if I can’t pick my mos
everyone is a shooter, B will just be in charge of teaching weapon systems, knowing maximum effective ranges, back blast areas, etc. but everyone will train CQB and do lots of range time (bravo will be in charge of range setup)
@All In why not?
Skip to 2:30
No more skipping leg day boys 😅
can't do that lol
thoughts on soflete?
I haven't tried it
Is there anything you can inform me of to prep for 18D sir?
work on study habits, how to retain information will be key... SOCM is a lot of information in a short time (from what i'm told) so figure out how you prefer to study and tricks to retain information
@@FNGACADEMY Understood. Thank you Sir.
He literally said “short sprints like the 12 mile run “ Jesus
Wiw
Would eib badge help me get to selection or it’s like if you volunteer and meet the criteria you can go
EIB will not make a difference
@@FNGACADEMY well I’m gonna go it’s just eight days of training you can never have to much training I’m trying to get as squared away as possible I learned if the army will pay for it I’m going I learned from a old vet if the army a pay to train go for it
Sup Sean. Know any sf guys with flat feet? A buddy of mine that was a marine said I wouldn’t be able to even try sf with flat feet.
that's ridiculous... who is going to look at your feet? people just love to say stupid shit
@@FNGACADEMY thanks dude. They’re supposedly an “injury risk” but no issues with mine in 24 years. Keep doing what you do.
It's a lie. I have flat feet and I had no problem. You'll be just fine brother.
Is it better to go in the military after or before college
Little late but I’ve *heard* that the process is longer to get into special forces after college than just going right into it after high school. Something to do with becoming an officer and having to be a certain rank after college
You go when you feel ready everything else is irrelevant. What do you want out of life?
How would you add weight to your rucksack?
i use olympic weights
Cheeseburgers.
@@FNGACADEMY Thank you.

What’s about that intro XD
“I used em for short sprints like the 12 mile run”
Yo what
lmao shorter rucks 12 miles or less
people see me out rucking with my massive, heavy ass backpack in the rain and they say "seek professional help", maybe they're on to something 🤔 🤣🤣🤣
we are making a ruck trainer, it will help from looking like a psycho lol
@@FNGACADEMY lmao I'll check it out but I'm gonna maintain my well earned public image 🤣
"amazon putting out fake stuff"
yes!! They definitely are I ordered some boxing resistance bands. These mfs have me some bs cheap bands that would have broken when I pulled them from the package.
I hate how everyone must sell sell everything when what your teaching if free knowledge plus he is only telling you part of it
Buck, watch this video (about Ukraine) when you have a few minutes. I've been watching all his videos since the war started but what he speaks on this one really got to me. I think the US (as part of NATO) is going to have to get in there. It's just a matter of time.
