Week 126 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.

The 15th: 1-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB. I cut my workout in half. I thought it the prudent thing to do since I slept less than 3 hours.

The 16th: 3-mile walk. PT.

The 17th: Rest. 

The 18th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB.

The 19th: Nope, didn't do PT. It's tougher for me keep working out during the shorter days.

The 20th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. PT. UB.

The 21st: PT.
