Today we’re honored to dedicate RED Friday to all of the life savers in the combat zone, especially the Special Forces Medic – The 18D

OVERVIEW

Special forces medical sergeants are considered to be the finest first-response/trauma medical technicians in the world.

Though they’re primarily trained with an emphasis on trauma medicine, they also have a working knowledge of dentistry, veterinary care, public sanitation, water quality and optometry.

TRAINING

Due to the wide variety of missions, special forces medical sergeants are trained swimmers, paratroopers and survival experts, as well as trained in many forms of combat. Training for the special forces medical sergeants consists of 60 weeks of formal classroom training and practice exercises.

Some of the skills you’ll learn are:

• Physical conditioning, parachuting, swimming and scuba diving

• Using land warfare weapons and communications devices

• Handling and using explosives

• Bomb and mine disposal

HELPFUL SKILLS

• Readiness to accept a challenge and face danger

• Ability to stay in top physical condition

• Interest in medicine and science

We’re here wondering what benefits may come about from performing hill repeats. One things is for sure it is the power output needed to keep going up and down this darned elevation. Speed of foot falls, leg strength, cadence of turnover, pulling power, lung capacity, breathing cadence…to name a few.

Yes, I know she don’t have big hills here with any type of elevation to speak of. Some may even say that our off ramps from the expressway exits are our urban hills! I wouldn’t argue with that one bit! We have to travel far for real elevation, but we make due with our Hill here at Westchester Woods.

So, today we’re inviting you to join us for a few hill climbs with load.

Today we’re at the Hill at Westchester Woods. I really enjoy the outdoors, and having to do anything outdoors trumps being indoors any day. So, today we have a lil’ something for you to get done with your selected kb weight.

Focus on breath control trying to breath mostly through your nose for as long as you can. Once you begin to mouth breath step back to control your breathing, and regain the nasal breathing once more to finish the workout as you began. Breathing through your nose.
