For what it is worth...I trained up strictly following WarriorMentor' book. The program and guidance in there worked like a charm. I made it through the 24 day selection with not a blister one. Hot spots...yes, oh yes. But not one blister, even through the long walk. The walking barefoot advice is golden. I used it as an initial hardening tactic. I walked around my old battallions barracks parking lot for about 20 minuted with a ruck 2-3 times a week for 2 weeks. After that I began the program I mentioned earlier and the rest is history. Key note, follow his advice to the letter. WarriorMentor has this down to a science IMHO.
