TRANSFORMATIONS
"Hard to Kill changed the game. Before I started, my lifts were decent - benching 220, squatting 305, and deadlifting 365. But after grinding through the program, I pushed those numbers to 270 on bench, 415 on squat, and 465 on deadlift.
My body transformed too. My arms grew from 16" to 16.5", chest from 41" to 43.25", and thighs from 23.5" to 25" all while bringing my waist down from 32.5" down to 32"."
Pull-ups: 6 --> 14
3 mile: 28min --> 22m39s
++ Added over 150lbs total to his 5-rep max for squat, bench & deadlift.
"Op HTK created a new baseline for the intensity I desire from the gym. It is what I crave every time I am there and also seeps into other aspects of life where I want to go hard and push through the discomfort."
"I came here to compete in this challenge since I felt lost and had no direction after getting out of the military. I was going to the gym to just work out and it wasn’t with a purpose. After receiving a job offer to become a Firefighter/EMT I knew it was time to kick it into high gear and get prepared. I have made tremendous gains in the gym and cardio. Not only seeing a benefit in the gym but also even mental health."
From 235 to 160, then built up to 180lbs solid muscle most recently using the operator bundle. Its amazing what diet improvement, a few HTK workouts and not being a b**ch will do for someone.
I completed the HTK Elite Operator 12 week plan and still go back to that style of training periodically. I’ve drastically changed my body and have gotten myself in the best shape possible so I can be HTK and make it home to my family each night!!!
139lbs - 210lbs
"I just wanted this shit so bad and was willing to do whatever it took!
When you give up on yourself remember the people who didn’t give up on you. Do it for them even if you hate yourself."

"Started off 175 lean bulked up to 198 all muscle. I was feeling lost and unmotivated until I discovered BMF Hard to Kill. The intense workouts and supportive community reignited my passion for fitness. I pushed myself beyond my limits, and the mental and physical toughness I gained fueled my desire for more. I conquered a 100K ultramarathon, a goal I once thought was impossible. BMF Hard to Kill isn't just a workout program; it's a lifestyle transformation."
"I used both to shed off some ranger fluff and get back into top shape after ranger school. I springboard afterwords by getting down to nearly 10% body fat and completing a 50 mile ultra marathon in just 12 weeks after graduation. I ended up competing for the 2024 best ranger competition and will compete once again in 2025. I hope to not only place in the top 3, but to ultimately win the competition. HTK programs undoubtedly are tailored for preparing you for a military style of fitness that I think is often confused with just strength training."

"I've been following HTK since 2018 and my biggest accomplishments are sticking with the intense training programs for over 6 years now, with almost no time off other than injury rehab, which has allowed me to pass one of the hardest SWAT selection processes in the US. Plus these programs and this knowledge I’ve gained to pass on to other officers and younger brothers in the Army and seeing their awesome growth and development in fitness and health."
Sit-ups, 75-115, weighted Russian twists, 30-80, low plank, 70 sec - 130 sec
“The hardcore challenge helped me build solid mass in my core, not only improving my physique but also enhancing my performance—allowing me to handle whatever came my way without missing a beat. I was hitting a wall, but after completing the last six weeks, I’ve developed a mental resilience and strength that far surpasses my previous physical limits.Around week two, despite dreading core exercises, they became a key part of my routine and paid off in football, the army, and life in general.
The training as always is awesome I was able to scale it within my training away with Aus army, but still allowed me to complete it along with running Tactical Monster.”
Beginning Waist size: 33"
After Waist size: 30.25"
"I noticed a clear increase in my strength and endurance over the eight weeks. While my weight is the same at the beginning and end, I put on approximately ten pounds in the first four weeks to add muscle mass before cutting back to my starting weight.
I found that the challenge helped me have something to keep me motivated and working toward a healthier future. I am now almost two months sober and very excited about sharing my results."
"I started using HTK in August 2019 when I was trying to get into the police academy. At the time I was 6'5 weighing 325 lbs. I started with Aspiring Warrior and was able to get into shape and dropped down to 275lbs before the academy in January 2020. I loved the results I got and the intensity of the programs. As of 2024 my biggest achievement has been losing 75lbs. I dropped a shirt size from barely fitting into a XXL to wearing a loose fitting XL. I dropped my pant size too from 44 waist to a 34 waist. HTK has helped me become more active and stay active. I now run races and complete Tough Mudders yearly and I'm coming even closer to getting off blood pressure medications."
"Throw back to when I thought I was in shape. College hit me like a sledge hammer and not having a plan kept me in a rut. So I swallowed my pride and took a look at @hardtokill_fitness. It completely changed how I thought about practical, real world fitness. The Tactical Monster program flip the script on me and kicked my ass the entire time. I went from 210lbs at 25% body fat to 190lbs at 12% body fat. My strength went through the roof and kept going. If yyou're looking to Forge a better you."
"Start weight 267 pounds, now 241 pounds. I am also a HTK convert for life. I have had pro trainers in the past, and this program got me the best results OF MY LIFE. Thanks guys, I appreciate everything you have done for me by making this program available. Going after it with furious passion was up to me, and I think the results speak for themselves!"
"Lost 19lbs. Waist size Before 42, waist size After 34. The program was incredibly well-balanced. I have been actively working out for years and have done a variety of programs, this one was the most comprehensive. I loved that the program incorporated a lot of traditional lifts (squats, bench press, shoulder press etc), as well as some exercises that I had never done before"
"Gained: 20lbs Push-ups increased: 30-75.
After my accident last year I dropped to 113lbs from laying in a bed for months. I found your challenge during my recovery. I knew this would be a great way to keep myself motivated and push my limits. My legs saw the most significant size increase. My endurance has increased 10x and I pushed beyond every limitation I thought I had!"
"178 - 202lbs. 17 years old and ready to kick ass and take names on the football field. 12 weeks of constant grind. Started out the end of the season at 178. Finishing at 202. Just the beginning though."
"5 years ago I was 200lbs (first pic). Saw that number and went on a healthy diet to never be that weight again. Now I'm on week 10 of tactical monster. Sitting at 200 lbs again (last pic). I was sitting at ~190 lbs second pic and that was after the first workout of tactical monster. Just want to say thank you 🤝 Feeling like a monster."
"I love the fact of being war ready because when that day comes and I have to perform my job I want to dominate and win."
"I’m 1 year post partum with twin boys and I needed to prove to myself that I could still push myself just as hard as I was prior to my boys."
"Before starting the program I weighed 125lbs. At the end of the program I gained 5 lbs."
