Week 231 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.

SEALFit shared some good hints I want to learn and remember:

20: 30 minutes. 1/2-mile walk. Short walks. PT. UB. Stretch.

21: 50 minutes. 2-1/2 mile walk. PT. UB. Stretch.

22: Rest.

23: 60 minutes. 2 1-mile walks. PT. UB. PT and UB with 1-lb weights. Stretch. Heat.

24: 30 minutes. 2 1/2-mile walks. Short walks. PT. UB. Stretch.

25: 30 minutes. 1-1/4 mile walk. PT. UB. Stretch.

26: 30 minutes. 1-mile walk. PT. UB. Stretch. Planned to shorten my walks today because I did something to a couple toes. Don't know what exactly, but they're tender; I don't want to make it worse. Ended up taking an easy 1-mile walk.

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