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. 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
FL ~ Sitting foot lifts to strengthen knees

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

Mon: 30 min walk outside, recumbent bike (50 cycles), elliptical (20 cycles), stairs Walk around the house PT 0-lb x5 1-lb x1 FL x5 

Tue: 5 laps around the house 3 minutes/50 laps is 30 minutes/25 laps is 15 min total 45 minutes PT 0-lb x5 FL x5

Wed: 1 hour and 10 min exercise: 40+ min walk (around the house inside and out) stairs bike (55 cycles) elliptical (25 cycles) sweep/vacuum 30 min grocery shopping with my sister (took the walker) PT 0-lb x5 1-lb x1 FL x5 Walked to the neighbor's; the mailman put their mail in my box.

Thu: Walk around the house 10 min chunks (forgot to keep track) PT 0-lb x5 FL x5

Fri:

Sat: 35 min walk outside 20 min around the house bike 60 cycles elliptical 30 cycles PT 0-lb x5 1-lb x1 FL x5

Not loosing more weight, more's the pity, but improving my stamina.
