Week 198 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. 

PT ~ Physical therapy using 2-lb and 1-lb weights, alternating days.
UB ~ Upper body exercises
I'm starting low, at 10, to restart my workouts, with no weights yet.

3: Short walks. PT. UB.

4: 1-mile walk. PT. UB.

5: Rest.

6: 1/2-mile walk. PT. UB.

7: Short walks. PT. UB. Starting today, I'm adding stretching. It will take a little while for me to make it a habit.

8: 1/4-mile walk. PT. UB. I'm adding heating of my arm, twice a day for 15 minutes. I'm also adding tea in place of my chocolate bingeing.

9: Short walks. PT. UB.

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