PROTOCOL OVERVIEW

This 7-week training protocol is purpose built to prepare the individual for the successful completion of the FBI's Physical Fitness Test (PFT), and to meet the physical demands of the Bureau’s Basic Field Training Course. This protocol should be completed approximately 1 week prior to the start of your training course. Training consists of 6 working weeks, and ends with a 7th final assessment/deload week.

BASIC ASSUMPTIONS

Going into this training protocol it can be assumed that you are an individual of sound health, and that you already have a decent fitness foundation and have the ability to exercise at moderate-to-high intensities for 45-60 minutes.
