You don't have to be smart to run! Lol

Women aren't allowed in seal teams

My thoughts exactly - great line. 😂

@@papabear746 They actually are and a few have tried out for BUD/S but none have succeeded so far.

Yes, they are ​@papabear746

dude was so smooth

It was perfection

that was awesome

Not really. That’s old school mentality. If you train properly you really only need 20-30. If you so have the time, the adaptations from 50 are beneficial but most people have limited time to train so you can get similar adaptations from less mileage a week and build similar durability from strength training and less miles

I’ve heard people saying you only need 12 lmao

Hey,I was 1st grade onianta imperial beach 1967,my dad was stationed north island,34 yrs navy I was the youngest,good days in them neck of the woods back then,just saying ,you take care

Ruck marching is. It’s harder and sucks worse. All army and marine special operations selections focus on rucking. In Afghanistan you’re rucking to a firefight in the mountains…not running in a t shirt

​@@rooster-zg4ooWhat are your credentials?

@@rooster-zg4ooto bad the army has female in the ranger battalion and is the easiest selection in all of the military

@@gregorylatta8159 i was an airborne infantryman in the army…rucking is the most important fitness attribute for combat MOS…

@@Dhdjdjsjdjsjk no..there’s like 1 female officer in ranger battalion…going to ranger school is not being in ranger battalion..its just a school..even if you make it through selection for ranger battalion you can get kicked out afterwards very easily if you suck at your job and are not in top physical condition..

Proof? Or are you just a lying weenie? You know what, reported kid.

Not too late to join, would be a trip under the current leadership though

nice message

Don't feel bad at least the military didn't ruin your life.

I don't think you missed out lol. 95% of these guys (at least out of the ones that don't end up blowing their brains out) come out with PTSD, multiple TBI's, broken bones, shattered knees, terrible joints etc. Crash dummies being led by sociopathic politicians invading other countries under the guise of "protecting freedom".

@@Anonymous18817 I suggest you look elsewhere, Dear.

​@@Anonymous18817you won't make it. Don't even try. When ( guaranteed) you fail you'll be rolled back to big navy and then you'll hate your life. Enlist in the Army instead. Much greater opportunity and cool things to do there.

Nope to use our brain to make a ride or walk. We can definitely walk without the problems. All the way till we leave this earth we train to walk and stay strong enough to walk until we leave.

Things people say who can't run.

@@Anonymous18817 Cant help you because I never went thru that program, but what I would do is read lots of books on the subject, watch videos about Seal training. Try to find someone who has been thru it. Maybe contact a recruiter who knows someone. It has been my experience that 90 percent of any difficult task is mental, not physical inability. The right mental attitude will get you thru most difficult task. I would run a lot , learn to be comfortable in the water and learn combat swimming, lift weights focusing on upper body strength. Most women have lower body strength, but lack upper . So concentrate on lifting weights over your head. Does not have to be heavy weights. Shoot for endurance. Holding weights that tires the muscles. Also get use to taking cold showers and cold baths. The cold and wet conditions is what wipes most of the candidates out, not the physical part. Being wet and cold sucks. Good luck. on what ever you do. Remember your young, the world is waiting for you to make your mark . Again wishing you all the best.

@@alab3657 I could when I was young, but bad knees and a fractured hip from doing construction for 50 years makes just waking difficult.

dive reflex method: breathe slowly for 1 min, hold your breathe for aslong as you can, go back to breathing slowly for 1 min, hold your breathe again, spash water on your nose, breathe regularly again for 1 min and then hold your breathe for as long as you can 1 last time. All and all, no one who became a seal prepped for drown proof, you just get the lung capacity to endure it by running and swimming.

No lol not even close. Go running on trails or beach and push ups and situps is all u do in basic. Basketball court is not where u want to be.

good luck to you, sir! Could you share with us how you prepare for calisthenics, long swims in the ocean etc.? I'm just curious and wondering how people get combat & tactical fit and BAD ASS! Salute!

@@matej9255 thank you, I’m gonna need as much luck as I can get 😂. One of the best workouts I can suggest to you are called Monster Mashes, instead of going for time or reps you shoot for mileage. The way I do mine is you start out with a 400m jog/run (at a light pace,) then you pick three or four exercises that you want to do. I like to pick burpees, push-ups and air squats. You pick a rep count that works for you for each exercise (go somewhat close to failure.) The goal for this workout is constant movement so you want to take as little rest as possible. For a Mile Monster Mash you would bracket it like this: 400m jog/run 15 burpees 25 push-ups 40 squats That is one lap. For a mile you want to do four laps total. Time yourself and try to push yourself on this and you’ll have great results 👍

@@Tom-qv2jg of course, I have been running a lot. I needed to drop my 1.5 mile time so I’ve been doing a lot of sprints lately. My last PST is next week before bootcamp so after I’m done with that PST I’m going to switch to a better running schedule. What do you think of this schedule? Monday: Short Tuesday: Medium Wednesday: Long Thursday: Medium Friday: Short Saturday: Long Short: sprints or 1 mile flat out Medium: 2-3 miles pushing hard Long: 4-6 miles decent pace

@@Tom-qv2jg absolutely, I did 130 of each yesterday and am keeping a daily log of how many reps I’m doing. I’m trying to stick to doing at least 100 of each per day but will slowly increase my reps as I get closer to my ship out date. Are there any specific exercises you would suggest doing to help with injury prevention? I know log pt and boats on heads are very injury “causing” events as well

are you getting some swimming in? @@bauerca3263

Rest up fully, it can take a few weeks, even a few months if they are bad. But your shins will grow back stronger for the next stress test.

interval training builds speed

​@@Anonymous18817don't do it

take to the trails for your runs. every step is different so you don't get the repetaitive use injuries like you get from running on roads where every step is the same. works for me at age 57. I took to the trails 20 years ago after battling knee problems for years running on the roads. this year marks 44 years of running for me.
