Pullup Progressions
The pullup will help you improve your overall upper body strength to carry weight well (as it sits on the upper back) as well as help you with any pulling motion that you may need such as crawling, pulling fellow soldiers, holding your weapon for long periods of time and other tactical needs.
Pushup Progressions
The pushup engages your entire core and helps build the stability needed to stay braced as you lift heavy objects. Also super useful in any pushing movement such as pushing someone away, shooting, krav maga and more.
Squat Progressions
The bridge and the squat are the ultimate body weight, lower body building exercises. Both train the lower body in the ideal manner, mimicking the function of training.
Every walk/run/jog/rucking you do in the army will be initiated by your legs. Specifically weighted walks (rucking) bears a large load on the legs. Training your lower body in the full range of motion will provide huge benefits.
