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.
SEALFit shared some good hints I want to learn and remember:
9: 30 minutes. 1/4-mile and short walks. PT. UB. Stretch. Made butter. :-) Heat. Tennis ball.
10: 30-minutes. 2-mile walk. PT. UB. Stretch. Heat. Tennis ball.
11: Rest.
12: 30 minutes 1/2-mile walk. PT. UB. Stretch. Heat.
13: 30 minutes. Short walks. PT. UB. Stretch. Heat.
14: 30 minutes. 1/4-mile walk. PT. UB. Stretch.
15: 30 minutes. Short walks. PT. UB. Stretch. Heat. Tennis ball.

I know this isn't related to this post, but I didn't see an e-mail address. I've been reading your LOTR series Through Frodo's Eyes but this link is broken:
