Frequently Asked Questions

Here are answers to some of the questions Jake receives most often. If you don’t see what you’re looking for, don’t hesitate to reach out.

General

Tactical strength and conditioning is performance-focused training designed for military personnel, law enforcement, firefighters, EMS professionals, and other tactical athletes. Rather than training for aesthetics, the focus is on building the strength, endurance, resilience, and work capacity needed for real-world demands.

Our coaching is designed for active-duty military, academy recruits, police officers, firefighters, EMS professionals, tactical athletes, and endurance athletes. If your performance matters beyond the gym, you’re in the right place.

Online coaching provides personalized programming, accountability, and ongoing support remotely, making it ideal for athletes with demanding schedules or those outside our local area. One-on-one coaching offers in-person guidance and hands-on instruction when available.

CONATUS is built on real-world experience, evidence-based coaching, and a commitment to helping military personnel, first responders, and tactical athletes perform at their highest level. Every training plan is designed around your profession, goals, and long-term success, not generic fitness trends.
