overview

introduction

When I first started writing fitness books in the 1990s, there were no other manuals based upon the Navy SEAL workout out on the market. Ten years after the first printing, these books are a dime a dozen. Just like any other profession there is progress, growth, and change. I have also learned quite a bit since my first book and decided to bring something unique and different to the market.

For this reason, you will receive nothing but the most informative and effective fitness guidance the market has to offer. Backed by my experience in the fitness industry and military, Special Ops Fitness Training will take you to the next level.

In this book, Ive taken the best exercises from various Special Forces units to create a program that will generate peak performance. Ive also added multiple routines so that your body will never plateau, taking your fitness levels off the charts. The alternative weightlifting program combines calisthenics with free weights to build speed, power, endurance, and size. This book leaves no stone unturned as far as training the upper body, lower body, and absyoull also see how the Special Forces include running, swimming, cardio, and weights in their fitness regimens. Whether youre male or female, a beginner or a pro, the exercises and routines in this book will help you achieve results beyond your expectations.

Author Mark De Lisle (right) makes some adjustments.

striving for peak performance

Youve probably purchased this book because youre not satisfied with being averageyoure looking for something that will take you to the next level of fitness. Special Ops Fitness Training will definitely help you get there, but not in the way you might think. The majority of clients I work with are more concerned with how many reps they do rather than performing the exercises correctly. The physical aspect is just a small portion of the peak-performance picture.

In addition, during the training sessions, someone will invariably say, I cant do any more! I refuse to let them quit and tell them that they better perform or were going to be there all day. Take a guess whether theyre able to squeeze out those last couple of reps. Sure enough, they do, and they just smile when I remind them that they had nothing left a few reps ago.

Mental domination is essentialyou must rise above your body and any weakness in order to function at your peak. Our first reaction while exercising is to listen to our body, and our bodys first reaction is to quit under stress. DONT LISTEN TO IT! From this point forward, you will train like a Special Ops operator and dominate your body so your body cant dominate you. Nobody wants to be a slave to anyone so why let yourself be a slave to your body? Its a weakness, and Special Ops Fitness Training eliminates weakness like a bad habit.

Every Special Ops operator has a unique mindset. Failure is not an option so they must find a way to succeed no matter what the cost. You, too, can acquire this mentality by eliminating all doubt from your mind. Not everyone can reach the levels of mental and physical dominance of a Special Ops operator (if anyone could, there wouldnt be anything special about Special Ops), but you can get mighty close. You have to want something so bad that you can taste it, otherwise your motivation will be short-lived. When you begin to feel failure, weakness, or discomfort, take the operator stance and attack it until it becomes a strength. When it comes to your mental strength, take no prisoners and do not look back.

history of special operations

Modern-day Special Forces can be traced back to Italian assault units, called Arditi, and the German storm trooper of World War II. Both units were specially trained and received extensive training beyond that of the normal infantry; they also had distinct uniforms that separated them from the normal soldiers.

During World War II, British prime minister Winston Churchill formed an elite group of troops known as Special Air Service (SAS), along with the Long Range Desert Group, the Special Boat Service, and the Small Scale Raiding. All were used in unconventional formats, with duties such as reconnaissance, guerrilla tactics, hostage rescue, and assaults.

Many have asked about the difference between U.S. Special Forces and special forces. In most cases, U.S. Special Forces refers to Army Green Berets, while the latter refers to all forces within this community. Army or U.S. Special Forces were around as early as World War II, under the direction of Strategic Services; this special group of men performed missions behind enemy lines and gathered intelligence in various locations throughout the world. But the actual origins of modern Special Forces go back a little further.

Major Robert Rogers commanded a unique group of men utilizing unconventional tactics during the French and Indian War. These men enjoyed working in environments that others avoided. Rogers often told his men to move fast and hit hard. Thanks to these courageous men, later known as Rogers Rangers, the foundation for modern special warfare was laid.

Another pioneer that used the element of surprise to harass and demoralize the enemy was Francis Marion in the late 18th century. Even though his troop numbers were small, they were very successful on their missions. These units evolved and became the Devils Brigade, Darbys Rangers, Merrills Marauders, and Alamo Scouts.

William Donovan, a seasoned veteran of World War I, was able to convince President Franklin D. Roosevelt that a new type of soldier was needed, one who could run secret missions behind enemy lines while collecting intelligence. In 1941 Roosevelt granted Donovan the opportunity to form Coordinator of Intelligence (COI); this organization was soon changed to Office of Strategic Services Society (OSS). In 1952 Special Forces was officially launched.
