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 20th: Rain, no walk. SEALp. PT.
The 21st: 1-mile walk. PT.
The 22nd: Rest.
The 23rd: 2-mile walk. Reduced PT. Woke to a headache. The walk was all right, but attempting my physical therapy increased the pain, so I shortened it and didn't attempt anything else.
The 24th: PT.
The 25th: 2-mile walk. SEALp. Headache kicked in again. Bah.
The 26th: PT.
The first picture was taken in February 2012. The second picture was taken in June 2012. Inspiration, at least to me:
