“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”
― Theodore Roosevelt

What’s your pull-up max? Are you stuck on a plateau? SOCOM Athlete can help — READ BELOW:

What’s 1 tip to for getting your max up to 20+ pull-ups? In this video a SOCOM Athlete student is evaluated by a Green Beret, in which the student was credited with 20 pull-ups. A 20+ strict pull-up max ranks in the top 10% among SOCOM Athlete students across the United States.

A common issue we see with our candidates is that they improve their numbers for a period of time, then get stuck on the “pull-up plateau.” You’re putting in the effort, but your numbers just aren’t improving.

What’s the most common cause for the “pull-up plateau?” Doing pull-ups every single day; simply failing to allow your muscles to recover.

Demanding pulling sessions produce neuromuscular fatigue and can cause exercise-induced muscle damage, particularly with unfamiliar workloads or substantial eccentric loading (the lowering portion of each repetition). Repeating that workload before your muscles have had the chance to recover can carry residual fatigue into the next session. This prevents muscle growth and strength development.

Approximately 48–72 hours of recovery for target muscle groups is recommended, but varies with training volume, fitness level, sleep quality, and nutrition.

Muscle soreness alone doesn’t necessarily tell you the full story of whether you’re recovered.

Working hard is only half the battle. We must also work smart, prevent injury, and get to know what works for our own bodies.

Air Force Special Warfare Operators instruct and evaluate SOCOM Athlete students on the IFT (Initial Fitness Test) during the 14-hour Hell Day San Antonio, TX event on Chapman Annex, Lackland Air Force Base.

Each Hell Day event kicks off with the initial fitness test, where candidates are evaluated on a 1.5 mile run, max pull-ups, sit-ups, and pushups; 500 meter swim evaluation, and 2 x 25 meter underwater swim.

Following the fitness test, the Hell Day event transitions into challenging pre-dive training. Exercises include team flutter-kicks, treading water, bobbing/drown-proofing, buddy breathing, and underwater swim.

Hell Day students are then evaluated on a 3 mile ruck march in soft and with rucksacks weighing approximately 50 lbs (dry). This is where the strong candidates begin to distinguish themselves from the weaker candidates. After accomplishing a fitness test and hours of flutter-kicks, swimming, and treading water, the Ruck March evaluation becomes a crucible.

Following the Ruck March evaluation, Hell Day students forgo “surf torture” and cold water immersion. The cold water will break the will power and moral of even the toughest of candidates. Never Quit! The pain is only temporary.

Lastly, the Hell Day event features challenging team events such as log PT and litter carries. Students must communicate and work together as a team under extreme fatigue. Embrace the suck, and get comfortable being uncomfortable.

Hell Day instructors are active duty special operators who provide invaluable mentorship and training tips to establish warrior-mindset and proper techniques/fundamentals.

Are you training for a career in special operations? Hell Day is America’s number 1 special operations prep program, and is open to U.S. citizens ages 16+ who are pursuing a military career in special operations.
