Watch as the US Navy Phalanx CIWS Gatling Gun Fires

Watch as the US Navy executes a live fire of their Phalanx CIWS (pronounced “sea wiz” and stands for “Close-In Weapon System”) Gatling gun. Designed by General Dynamics, the CIWS works as a defense against anti-ship missles–and fires like the A-10 Gatling gun on steroids.

The CIWS is used on nearly every class combat ship in the US Navy. It’s also used by US Coast Guard, the British Royal Navy, and navies of 16 other allied nations.

QUESTION: I’m 45 years old and starting my own business, plus I am already in good shape, would your 180-day program still be beneficial for me? Thank you so much again for sending me the link.

ANSWER: Yes, it will help with mental toughness as well as general physical strength. Just don’t follow the meal plan designed for a 20 year old looking to put on 20lbs. We also offer full support so if you need to scale a workout or have a specific question, just hit us up on Facebook.
