In this session from the NSCA’s 2017 TSAC Annual Training, Mick Stierli discusses the new 12-week structured exercise program for law enforcement that was recently implemented in New South Wales, Australia. Stierli explains how to integrate a similar program into an organization and how to gain buy-in from tactical athletes.

In this hands-on lecture from the NSCA's 2014 TSAC Conference, Lee Burton talks about the need to remedy mobility dysfunction in tactical athletes, and discusses the Functional Movement System and programming functional exercise progressions.

Jason Masek talks about how to implement and properly execute push, pull, and propulsion movement patterns and variations into athlete programming.
