Welcome to the Never Quit Mindset Action Plan Course
This Eleven-Part Video Series takes each chapter of the book and explains it in more detail, adding more real-life stories to create a complete training program for building the Never-Quit Mindset. This course is all about taking action and doing. You cannot get tougher by sitting, reading, and watching, but you can learn valuable processes and physical and mental skills to apply to your daily lives and future goals.
The project has captured 25+ years of coaching experience of top-level athletes and special operators, as well as my own journey from athletics to special operations preparation and service. Over 43 years of training, preparation, failing, doubting, succeeding, and coaching others to deal with the same have been recorded to add to your preparation and training. No chapter is longer than 30 minutes in length and is easy to consume, with tons of coaching experience in every minute!
This course is divided into ten chapters plus an introductory video. Between each chapter is a 4-5 minute most frequently asked question that will help drive home each chapter in the video series training course. This is 4.5 hours of training divided into eleven modules. The complete audio link is available (here) if you prefer to listen to the course instead of watching it on video.

Many people ask me the difference between the Premium Program and the Online PT CLUB Coaching. The people on either program receive personalized training from me - Stew Smith - to best fit your abilities, goals, time per day, days per week, facilities, and equipment. We communicate regularly about your progress and your feedback helps me create the next week plan for you. There is no template workout and see you later. These programs are created 1 week at a time with YOU and ME in communication to figure out how best to create the next week.
Tactical Fitness Course - Getting TO the training does not guarantee you get THROUGH the training. Learn about the two phases of tactical fitness you need to develop thoroughly before getting to BUDS. Check out the Online Course - Getting TO and THROUGH Special Ops Selection.
