(exciting music)

00:11.160 --> 00:12.570
- The Lightning Tactical Athlete program

00:12.570 --> 00:16.490
was basically a trial
run for Lightning Academy

00:16.490 --> 00:18.250
to see how we can improve our

00:18.250 --> 00:21.220
train-the-trainer type modes
of education for our NCO's

00:21.220 --> 00:23.800
and so it's more of a team leader course.

00:23.800 --> 00:25.630
Enabling them to take back some of

00:25.630 --> 00:26.960
the strength conditioning principles

00:26.960 --> 00:28.890
that they'll use on a daily basis

00:28.890 --> 00:30.440
when they get back to their unit.

00:30.440 --> 00:31.880
And obviously we did a little bit of

00:31.880 --> 00:34.980
a pre and post testing to see how we can

00:34.980 --> 00:36.710
do the improvements as far

00:36.710 --> 00:38.730
as measuring strength,

00:38.730 --> 00:40.630
their endurance, their power output,

00:40.630 --> 00:42.153
with regard to the ACFT.

00:43.570 --> 00:45.870
- From the time we first
started til now I see

00:46.861 --> 00:48.700
an extreme amount of results,

00:48.700 --> 00:49.730
from me feeling better,

00:49.730 --> 00:51.100
from me being more fit,

00:51.100 --> 00:52.120
me being more lean,

00:52.120 --> 00:54.000
me going back to my unit,

00:54.000 --> 00:55.300
just doing sergeant-type training,

00:55.300 --> 00:56.133
being able to teach them

00:56.133 --> 00:57.914
the stuff I've learned already here.

00:57.914 --> 01:00.664
