Performance Intelligence

Think you can handle a life where every day strips you back to your limits?Former SAS soldier Harry Moffitt walks you through what an actual day inside the SASR looks like — and why it’s far closer to prison than prestige.What the selection process? What is the most brutal part of the training? How do they train medical first aid? Is Hollywood completely misrepresenting what elite military life feels like from the inside?This isn’t about glory. It’s about endurance, discipline, and discovering whether you could survive when comfort is removed entirely. You can find Harry at his website: https://harrymoffitt.com.au/Order a copy of Harry's book: https://www.panmacmillan.com.au/9781761563133/Connect with Harry at his LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/harrymoffitt/Follow Harry on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/harrymoffitt353/?hl=en Use Code "PQPODCAST10" to get 10% off your Lumo Coffee order:https://lumocoffee.com/ Interested in sharing your story?
