In this After Dark episode of the Iron Sights Podcast, I sit down with Shelton Stevens, a seasoned strength coach and human performance specialist for U.S. Army Special Operations at Fort Bragg. With over 16 years in the game, Shelton is helping elite American warfighters stay sharp, strong, and durable.

We dive deep into microdosing workouts—short, effective training sessions designed for high performers who need results without burnout. Shelton breaks it all down in a way that’s simple and usable, whether you’re in the military, law enforcement, or just training hard in the real world.

We also get into 13 Bar Performance, his coaching platform helping people train smarter with both custom and pre-built programs.

Packed with takeaways for anyone looking to perform better and stay mission-ready. Tune in and enjoy the conversation.
