+ Understand your weaknesses and target them
The BTE Training App automates many of the processes we use as coaches. It will assess your strengths and weaknesses and create a semi-individualized & goal-specific program based on your goals. Our fitness algorithm provides an in-depth overview of where you need to focus your training efforts. Working with BTE coaches, we'll use that data to adjust your training program to maintain strengths and improve weaknesses.
+ Build mental skills
Every training session includes a specific mental skill focus. Daily lessons help you build mental skills to become more resilient and capable week after week, month after month.
+ Unlimited access to BTE coaches to ask questions & get answers
You can message the world-class BTE coaching team anytime to get your questions quickly answered.
+ Adjust workouts based on your schedule
Change your weekly structure, and pause training when needed. Whatever your schedule, the program can adapt to fit it.
+ Learn about the 'why' behind your training sessions
Learn why specific methods and training sessions are assigned to you and how they will help you achieve your goals.
+ Track progress and get individualized guidance for every training session
PR tracking, suggested weights, running and rucking speeds, and heart rate zones based on your specific capabilities help you get the most out of every training session.
+ Automatic adjustments
Show up and do the work; the app takes care of the rest. You'll be guided to review and adjust your strategies based on your physical and mental performance.
+ On-demand workouts
Finishers, movement circuits, bodyweight workouts, and add-ons are always available.
Warning: We are not for everyone

Our training programs are designed to be effective, not entertaining. You will be asked to do things you find boring, tedious, and that you are not good at. This is precisely why it works, but it also requires a professional mindset - setting aside what you want today, to do what is necessary to get where you want to be months and years from now.
If you're looking for something new and exciting or pursuing a series of short-term goals, our program is not the right fit for you. If you're willing to train like a professional and focus on a single goal for 6-24+ months, emphasizing both your training regimen and your behavior outside of training (such as nutrition, sleep, and stress management), you'll achieve exceptional results.

Reviews
Improved my fitness by a lot
When I first started working with these guys I could not swim more then two laps in the pool or run further then a mile with out stopping, I’m training for Air Force special warfare but with the past year of working with bte I completed an Ironman with a huge thanks to their training.
BTE
best training program that I’ve ever used and for a cheaper price than others!! Cannot beat the education that these guys provide!
BTE is the best program you will find.
BTE created a program for this old man (45) that helped me crush air assault and remain injury free.
In-Depth Training Made Simple
I am about two weeks into training with BTE and pretty new to many of the training methods, but I have found their videos and explanation sections super helpful to maximize each workout. Additionally, I am really enjoying how much the app has to offer outside of purely training information. Also being able to message directly with a coach who responds quickly is rather unique.
You need this!
Customised programming, mental fitness courses, nutrition and a coach on call. Literally the best thing for SF prep, would highly recommend.
Start now
The most complete training package out there. No bullshit, just real methodologies that are proven to work. The value for money with the resources available is insane. I wish I had started sooner.
Adaptable and Personalised
The way the app and programming is done enables you to adjust your training to work around your own schedule and is incredibly easy to scale the intensity up and down. The content is also highly personalised to meet your strengths and weaknesses through in-depth testing and feedback directly to the coaches with direct messaging in-app.
There is also a wealth of knowledge provided ranging from mental and leadership frameworks needed for selection courses to nutrition and cooking skills to support training.
For anyone willing to do the work
This App is hands down one of the best resources one could ask for in this space. Wether your training for special operations, are on the general tactical population or just want to up your performance, this is a all-in-one solution.
The Programming is great, but the mental skills training and the optional courses in the app are what really made the difference for me.
Selection was as much about the physical as about leading, communicating and learning skills. Those are all things I could not have done as well without the resources in the app.
The App is so well-built, that it almost feels like they are personally coaching you.
This is for everyone who is willing to do work and needs someone to show them how.
Commit to this and you’ll be ready
Been on the program for more than a year leading up to my selection. Training-wise, it’s almost the perfect program covering all your bases, building a strong foundation, aerobic base, strength, with a wide variety of training sessions, tasks and reading materials to complete. You can also schedule your sessions however you like, especially if you have a high-tempo schedule. I say almost because I really dislike copenhagen side planks—yes, they are beneficial for load-bearing work. Currently at 34 years, I’m the fittest I’ve ever been and this will only be the beginning. Two months into my 9-mth selection, can say that the process has prepared me very well for the tasks at hand. Through BTE, I’ve also learned for myself that though the outcome/destination is important, it was the journey that meant so much more to me. Thanks again, BTE!
BTE Week 5
So far I have really loved the amount of feedback and specific input I’ve recieved from the coaches via the messaging portion of the app. I currently am in my movement and capacity building phase and although over a year and a half from selection, feel as though the work volume and intensity is perfect for my current build up phase. The feedback and ability to form or rearrange your assigned workouts is essential for anyone with a busy or ever changing schedule.
