Most people trying to improve their 2-mile run are making the same mistake:
Running HARD every single day.
That’s exactly why so many runners stay stuck, plateau, burn out, or end up injured.
In this video, I break down the exact 3-run system I use with military athletes and hybrid runners to help them:�• Drop minutes off their 2-mile�• Improve endurance without destroying recovery�• Build speed AND strength together�• Run faster without constantly feeling smoked

We cover:�• Speed Intervals (30/60s, 60/120s, Fartleks)�• Threshold Runs�• Zone 2 Endurance Training�• How to combine lifting + running correctly�• The biggest mistakes ruining your progress

One of my clients dropped nearly 3 minutes off his 2-mile while ALSO improving strength and durability through structured training.

If you’re military, tactical, hybrid, or just trying to become a better runner… this video will help you train smarter.

Most soldiers don’t have a motivation problem. They have a structure problem. This client came to me after scoring a 265 NO-GO on his Army Fitness Test. He’d been stuck for years dealing with shin splints, flat feet, failed progress, and the mindset that every workout needed to destroy him.

Instead of running him into the ground, we adjusted the plan:
• Reduced his running volume
• Added bike sessions for conditioning
• Focused on recovery + progressive overload
• Built actual structure around his training

And the crazy part?
He wasn’t even perfect.
He was probably 70–80% consistent most weeks.
But consistency with structure beats random hard work every time.

In less than 4 months:
• 2-mile run: 22:07 → 19:35
• Deadlift: 150 → 190
• Overall score: 265 → 342 GO

That’s almost an 80-point increase on the AFT while training around injuries.
Most people think they need to train harder. In reality, they need a smarter plan.

If you’re military and want help improving your Army Fitness Test score, AFT run time, Sprint Drag Carry, deadlift, or overall conditioning, comment COACH lets chat and build a plan to get you results.

Training for the Berlin Marathon through the Team RWB charity bib program means more to me than just another race.

After close to 14 years in the Army National Guard, transitioning out of the military hit me harder mentally than I expected. Behind the scenes I was dealing with anxiety, depression, chronic pain, injuries, and honestly feeling lost for a while.

I know a lot of veterans quietly experience that same transition. Between therapy, endurance training, and community, I slowly started rebuilding myself again. Running, long workouts, and training for endurance events gave me structure, purpose, and confidence again when I needed it most.

That’s why organizations like Team RWB matter. A lot of veterans leave service searching for community and purpose again, and fitness can be a powerful way to reconnect.

So this season of life is about continuing to move forward with one workout, one mile and one day at a time.

They gave everything for this country.
Don’t waste the freedom they died protecting.
Personal excellence is an obligation, not an option.
Memorial Day is more than a long weekend.
It’s a reminder that generations of men and women never made it home so we could have the opportunity to live freely.
So honor them well.
Take care of your body.
Stay disciplined.
Chase your potential.
Be present with your family.
Live a life worthy of the sacrifice that bought your freedom.
Because freedom was never free.

After almost 14 years in the military, I realized discipline doesn’t stop when the uniform comes off.
The Major Fitness B52 PRO has become a huge part of how I stay grounded physically and mentally after service.

Between chronic injuries, mental health struggles, and transitioning into civilian life, training stopped being about ego.

Now it’s about longevity, staying capable, having energy for my family, and continuing to grow. These days I’m training for Ironmans and marathons while using the B52 Pro to build strength, stay durable, and keep my body moving long term.

That’s why I still train.

The Major Fitness B52 Pro helped me rebuild structure after the military when injuries, depression, and anxiety had me feeling lost. Fitness has always been a cornerstone of my life, and having a place to train at home helped me clear my head, stay disciplined, and keep moving forward. Sometimes training isn’t just physical… it’s mental too.
