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.

PT ~ Physical therapy

UB ~ Upper body exercises

10 reps 
Cutting back to basics. I'm also working on eating better and sleeping better. I've a bad habit of doing too much all at once, becoming frustrated and/or overwhelmed, and stumbling. In this, I want solid success before stepping up a level. My poor body has been abused too much over the years to continue the pattern. I'm pretty torn down. I need to build.

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