Good Friday

Jesus knew what was coming. He endeavored to prepare His disciples. However, what was about to happen had never occurred in history before, ever. The followers of Jesus didn't know what was coming. For them, this day was the end, but Sunday is coming.

REAL Week 452

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.  Since my accident I haven't done these, but I'm working to add them back into my routine. Currently, I can't sit on the floor and hope to get up again, so crunches and flutter kicks are on hold, and my pushups are against the wall.

Using 1-lb weights:
PT ~ Physical therapy
UBP ~ Upper body exercises and pushups

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

23: 2-mile walk. PT. UBP. x3. Stretch.

24: 2-1/2 mile walk. PT. UBP. x1. Stretch.

25: Rest.

26: 2-mile walk. PT. UBP. x8. Stretch.

27: 1-mile walk. 
Stretch.

28: 2-mile walk. PT. UBP. x8. Stretch.

29: 1-mile walk. Stretch.

Reflection...

It's Easter week, an opportunity to reassess and recommit my life to Jesus. He gave his life for me, and though He asks for everything in return it isn't so very much.
