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. My pushups are against the wall.

Using 1, 2, and/or 4-lb weights:

PT ~ Physical therapy

UBP ~ Upper body exercises, pushups, and chair sits against the wall
