Episodes

Episode 61 - The Adversarial Growth Principle

In this episode, I discuss what the adversarial growth principle is, and how you can apply it to your selection preparation IOT improve your chances of passing.

Episode 60 - The Older Selection Candidate

In this episode, I discuss the older candidate wanting to attempt selection. I talk about the pro's and con's of this and what (in my opinion) should already be ingrained in your life that will ensure a positive and successful selection attempt. I also touch on strength training for selection.

Episode 59 - The Perfect Time To Attempt Selection

In this episode, I discuss when the best time to attempt selection is and what factors you must take into account to ensure you're making the right call.

Episode 58 - Timelines & Priorities

When preparing for selection, how much time should you put into each skill set? Which skill sets should you prioritise and in what order? These can be tricky questions to answer depending on your circumstances. Listen to find out!

Episode 57 - Five Selection Prep Points

In this episode, I discuss five selection preparation points that came out of the 2022 Commando selection debrief video I made recently (for those in my Indefatigable program). I cover fitness, body, kit, cognitive skills and mindset.

Episode 56 - Failing Selection Once

In this episode, I discuss failing selection on your first attempt and going back for more punishment! You'll be required to possess a high (emotional) pain tolerance to put yourself out there a second or even third time and risk another failure. Is it worth it? Do you even want to? Why?

Episode 55 - Lessons Learnt, 2021 SASR Selection Course

In this episode, I discuss the lessons learned from the 2021 SASR selection course. This was from a report written by the Human Performance Optimisation (HPO) Cell of the SASR. Some valuable insights!

Episode 54 - Solo v Group Training For Selection

In this episode, I discuss the pros and cons of conducting solo training versus group training for selection and what you should do to ensure you're ready for all scenarios on selection. You'll need to get this balance right.

Episode 53 - Crucial Selection Debrief Points

In this episode, I discuss some valuable lessons learned from previous selection courses. I initially recorded this training back in 2020, but the points are still relevant today and moving forward. Take them on board to prepare for your selection course.

Episode 52 - How To Prepare For SF Selection

In this episode, I discuss some key points and areas (mentally) I believe you need to focus on in order to prepare for selection. I recorded this training video a few years ago, but it's still very relevant today. Get on top of these points, and you'll be going into selection as prepared as possible.

Episode 51 - How To Deal With Selection Haters

In this episode, I discuss how to deal with the selection haters you may encounter throughout your selection journey. This includes pre-selection and on selection. They may be direct or indirect haters attempting to cloud your world with negativity... don't let them!

Episode 50 - Do This To Improve Your 3.2k Run Time

In this episode, I discuss some very simple, but effective strategies that you'll want to implement to improve your 3.2k run time. Get on top of this a long way out from selection.

Episode 49 - Gaining Confidence From Others Quitting

In this episode, I discuss the positives you want to take from others quitting on selection. Use this as motivation... you're still there, pushing, executing, giving it your all. Adopt this positive mindset throughout selection and beyond. You'll need to.

This episode is a little different - in it, I discuss my attempt at completing the Ultra Trail Australia 100km race held at the Blue Mountains. It was much tough than I'd anticipated and some great lessons were learned!
