Episode Description

Does everyone appreciate the term "Tactical Athlete" like I do? Maybe not. Maybe most think of being too "tacti-cool" with the idea of placing tactical in front of a term to sell more gear? But I think of it as a useful genre.  

I got this idea from Modern Athlete Strength Systems (https://www.instagram.com/modernathletestrength) on a recent newsletter. I was on their podcast a few months ago and much that we both do agrees we should train like athletes - that we should consider ourselves athletes. 

What do you think?  There is a difference in the way athletes and tactical athletes train through- See new article on the topic of being functionally durable:  https://www.stewsmithfitness.com/blogs/news/functional-durability-the-tactical-fitness-approach-for-military-readiness
