  • Q: What equipment is required to participate in 18A Fitness training programs?
    A: At 18A Fitness, we have designed our training programs to be as accessible and flexible as possible while maximizing results. For the optimal experience, we recommend having access to a complete gym. However, we understand that not everyone has this availability, so we have also identified a minimal equipment list to facilitate effective training at home or in a more limited setting. The essential equipment includes a pull-up bar, dip bar, bench, dumbbells, kettlebells, and a rower. If a rower is not available, burpees can be substituted to achieve similar cardio benefits. This minimal equipment ensures a comprehensive workout that can adapt to various environments while maintaining the high standards of 18A Fitness programs.

Our plans come in several durations to provide flexibility and accommodate varying levels of commitment: - 16 Week Plans: These comprehensive programs include SFAS, SW Prep, Kettlebell for BJJ, Navy SEAL, RANGER, and TACP training. They are designed for individuals seeking intensive preparation for specific physical and mental challenges. - 8 Week Plans: The SOF Prep plan is an 8-week program aimed at Special Operations Forces preparation, offering a shorter, yet still rigorous, option for those on a tighter schedule. - Monthly Subscription Plans: We also offer ongoing monthly subscription plans, including "The General Plan," which provides a well-rounded training regimen, and the "Custom Plan," which is tailored to your unique fitness needs and goals.

18A Fitness Mission

At 18A-Fitness it is our mission to help everyone who wants to accelerate and meet their fitness goals, and become the best version of themselves, tapping into their inner warrior. By harnessing decades of experience, cultivated as a Special Forces Green Beret and Strength & Conditioning Coach for hundreds of Special Operators I will provide my clients with  invaluable tools and arm them for optimum mental and physical performance by establishing achievable, realistic goals that are designed to keep you operating and reaching the next objective.

18A Fitness Vision

Whether preparing for the rigors of a career in Special Operations or confronting personal and professional life challenges with a renewed sense of performance and focus, 18A Fitness is designed to build you up and keep you in the fight. Combining first hand experience of the real-world rigors of Special Ops, coupled with the latest scientifically validated techniques, I will be able to help you achieve your objective and be physically and mentally ready to rapidly meet your next goal.

Oftentimes people train hard and vigorously to achieve a milestone. Running a marathon, climbing a mountain, or swimming a channel, once the goal is met, there is nothing left in the tank and the recovery begins. In Special Ops, you may have to run, climb and swim and still have enough in the tank to conduct the mission and get back home safely.  Then you need to be immediately ready to receive orders for the next mission, which may be in hours, or days not weeks or months away. Life is like the former, one task is completed and the next one is already running behind. You need to be training with intensity and volume but not to the point of burnout or injury. It is my fundamental understanding of that process that will establish lasting success that is reproducible for any of life’s challenges.

18A Fitness Program

18A Fitness isn’t just personal training; we make warriors.

As the go-to organization for Green Berets, Rangers, Special Warfare, and SEAL's in their pursuit of peak physical and mental performance, we’re as good as it gets. 

Armed with the immense, real-world experience of our founder and the incorporation of proper mobility, breathing, heart rate variability, strength, stamina, cardiovascular, and mental training, our services exceed the capabilities of the average gym or personal training service.  We prepare men and women to endure the rigors of Special Operations training, and other high-performance environments, with detailed, focused, all-inclusive plans that can’t be found anywhere else.

18A Fitness Tested

Thanks to our Founder, Kevin, we have secret, behind-the-scenes knowledge of what Selections entail, and what the instructors are looking for in the perfect candidate. 

We believe that the key to completion of our program involves establishing a culture of trust and respect between trainer and trainee, as well as harnessing the value of a holistic approach of training that will monitor and develop your performance from a three dimensional perspective.

This approach not only assists in preventing common injuries, but ensures you perform at an optimal level that will drastically increase your chances of getting Selected.
