What Navy SEALs are required to do to make it into BUD/S:http://navyseal.s5.com/requirements.html
RIght up front: Never in a million years could I do what is required. However, I needed to start somewhere. Considering how fit the SEALs are, I figured it was a good place to start. So my SEAL puppy reps (SEALp) consist of girls' pushups, crunches, and flutter kicks, a SEAL training basic. I started with doing one of each. I've worked up to 33 and working at slowing it down.
PT ~ Physical therapy.
UBE ~ Upper body exercises
The 4th: One-mile walk. Wow. I didn't expect walking to be so difficult. I kept it slow, reminding myself to keep my back straight and my hips in alignment and my head up, like it's being pulled by a string (yoga trick). I didn't expect my hips to be so sore. PT and SEALp.
The 5th: One-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UBE.
The 6th: Rest. Rest. Rest.
The 7th: PT. SEALp. 1-1/2 mile walk. SEALp. PT. UBE.
The 8th: PT.
The 9th: PT. SEALp. 1-1/2 mile walk. SEALp. PT. UBE.
The 10th: PT. Cough is almost gone. The peasants rejoice. Yay.
