A new author on my blog, is Nathan Cragg. I want to expand the mil/LE section of my site/blog, and Nathan is my first guest author in that section. He's written an article "How to make Crossfit look easy. (http://www.brinkzone.com/swatleomilitary/how-to-make-crossfit-look-easy/#more-1821)" The focus of the article is in TacFit, a program designed and directed toward tactical athletes specifically. Give the article a read, and let me and Nathan know what you think:

"I made the drive to Bellingham. It’s suppose to be an hour and a half drive, but those of you that have seen I-5 around Seattle know to double your time minimum. It took me four hours. I had just spent 19 hours the day prior sitting in HMMWV’s, so needless to say I was quite tight and worn out. I got some dinner and passed out immediately after in my hotel room.

Next morning I headed to the RMAX gym located in the Bellingham Athletic Club. I aked where the Tacfit certification was being hosted. I then cruised to the back room of the gym where there were rings hanging, plyo boxes, paralettes, kettlebells and of course the clubbell. Most the students were already there and chit chatting introducing each other. Turns out some of these cats had just gone through 3 days of CST certification, they were going 5 days straight!

Most the attendee’s were looking pretty ripped and in pretty good shape. There were some firefighters, military(to include a soldier from Singapore), a physical therapist and the rest were trainers of some form or another. For those of you not familiar with Tacfit, it’s a metcon program designed by coach Scott Sonnon specifically designed for first responders. "
