Week 121 of REAL...

REAL - Reduce stress Exercise Adequate sleep Lower caloric intake

What Navy SEALs are required to do to make it into BUD/S:
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. 
Hip lifts
PT ~ Physical therapy using 2-lb and 1-lb weights, alternating days.
UB ~ Upper body exercises
I've worked up to 50 and then 10 more.
BD ~ Belly dancing (my version of it, anyway)

The 11th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB. BD.

The 12th: 4-mile walk. PT. BD.

The 13th: Rest. 

The 14th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB. BD.

The 15th: PT. BD.

The 16th: 1-mile walk. PT. UB. BD. Reduced workout due to editing deadline, but I'm pleased I didn't dump the whole routine.

The 17th: PT. BD.

The first picture was taken in February 2012. The second picture was taken in June 2012. Inspiration, at least to me:
