Building the Elite Training

Building The Elite is not just an ordinary training program, it will change your life. It helps provide structure but the team at BTE goes above in beyond in their holistic and well-rounded approach to training. The movement circuits are excellent and will have your body performing like a well-oiled machine. Blocks are four weeks long and keep you engaged, I can genuinely say some of the workouts are just plain fun! All of this would be worth it enough, but when you add in the mental skills lessons that’s where BTE really takes the cake. The mental skills they teach build otherworldly mental resilience to reach and do things you didn’t believe were possible. If you are a tactical professional of any kind, you won’t regret it.

For $50 I think its a bargain to get a high quality adjustable program with real coaching. Probably the best coaches in the game as well so I imagine the $ will go up over time. With that said! The app definitely needs improvements. -There are certain exercises that are bodyweight exercises, but the app asks you to input a weight for the set to count. There should be demonstrations for these exercises with weight (single leg hip thrust for example?) do i put 0 for weight, or my bodyweight? Theres no instruction. -Timers should be able to be set automatically like the app SmartWod, and should indicate when to switch sides for unilateral exercises. The user is constantly on their phone starting and stopping timers which I find to be annoying, apps like smartwod take the tapping and thinking out of timed work:rest periods. -Add strava to integrated apps -Need to review some of the work capacity workouts. They say 30 minutes but if you do every exercise/rest exactly as prescribed it can take anywhere from 15-30 minutes longer than it says. I think it doesn’t account for unilateral exercises where the time needs to be repeated twice.

The BTE App recently changed over from the Everfit App, all functions remain the same, and the coaching and protocols are spot on. I can always trust the prescribed time in the workouts, which helps with a busy and active schedule, as I always complete the workout within 1-2 minute of the prescribed time, over and over again. The workouts selected have definitely helped me increase overall fitness, 1RMs, and my zone 2 cardio is getting faster too. I feel strong, not over-trained, and the built in recovery and On-Demand options are great for rest days. Highly recommended for anyone seeking selection or sustainment of a high performance mind and body.
