    Thanks very much for your response regarding strength standards.

    I had another question regarding special operators and martial arts training.

    I personally love MMA/wrestling. I think the high intensity cardio is great as well as training my mental toughness. Do you see any benefits of throwing a session or two of this in a week for SFAS preparation, or is the injury risk too great?

    Scott,

    Thank you for your detailed response. I’ve since purchased and started to utilize the training plan.

    One question that I have is if you have a certain baseline 1 RM that tactical athletes should have in the core lifts?

    Examples would be a max back squat of 2xBW, bench 1.5xBW, etc.

    Thanks again.
