Nice Addition to Library
This book is basically an Army Field Manual for Physical Training (PT). It is written from the viewpoint of group PT: squad, platoon level and above. Not what I expected but it is still a really good book. This isn't one of those books that follows the old, "train like this and you'll become a ranger. It is directed towards leaders of The Ranger Battalions, with the intent of maintaining and improving the fitness/health of their soldiers. Rangers are always on the go doing missions, training for missions, preparing to train for missions, and are extremely physically active all day, even after their PT sessions. That's why the book has all kinds of PT workouts for various situations and periodization stages. All that being said, I recommend the book to any fitness nut. Good workouts, good schedules and periodization, bodyweight, strength, power, kettle bells, endurance, hybrids, field PT, morning and evening workouts for when you have the time, and more.Just wanted to let everyone know, the book is formatted differently than your typical fitness book. I love how they stress form, that's huge!

After buying it, I found a pdf I printed off for free and is in color..... After having this for 21/2 years, I have to say that the book is excellent for a well rounded strength and conditioning regimen. The material is excellent, but as I previously stated, you can find it online for free. Printing it is not free, however is cheaper.

Great for building a more athletic body, but not that great for APFT prep.
Our shop has been following the preplanned workout calendar in the back of the book and everyone enjoys it and has gained overall strength and endurance. However, our pushup scores for the APFT have gone down.

Not really a guide- its the DA material printed and bound
This is the EXACT same information that you can find on the internet with a search engine.The only difference is, it is printed (in black and white) and bound.Unless you need a printed and bound copy- save yourself the money and search the title and you can download it for free.

Great book for those who want personal view on what ...
Great book for those who want personal view on what it takes to become a Ranger, I bought it for my boys in the Army. They now have a more educated perspective on what they need to do to complete this part of their military career.

A good starting book
A good starting book. Kinda done on the cheap and no author name and the like but the info is pretty good and you'll get a good workout from it. Can't complain.
