ok, so i was looking to re-enlist into seals.

[undefined]

ok, so i was thinking of re-enlisting into the navy seals, and quite frankly, marine corps infantry isnt as hard, but we have done shit just as hard as them.

i was looking at a workout routine, and not sure what i want to do.

we have a workout called crossfit that our officers have been doing, and they are getting rather motivated with it and i thought i would start trying it out.

the program is built around 9 weeks, but the first 3 weeks looked rather easy for me, so i decided to start out on week 4.

Week 4:

* Running: 3 miles, 8:30 pace, Mon/Wed/Fri
* Pushups: 5 sets of 25 Pushups Mon/Wed/Fri
* Situps: 5 sets of 25 Situps Mon/Wed/Fri

that doenst look to hard be honest, but im not sure if i want to just try regular body-building techniques such as going to the gym and what not. this program seems that its decent all-around. but certain other muscle groups would need to be worked also.
what do you think?

OT but amusing h34r:

Seals ofc, got pwnt even by a bunch of girls. Delta force (i think, not sure) was competing at 2007 and scored better. But no offence ofc, imho seals rox. But it just shows that most of the seals aint so tough anyways, so u shouldnt have that much of a trouble.

On topic, more swimming imo. It doenst boost only ur swimming skill past lvl 80, but gives more str and shit aswell.

i'm sure you could increase the reps in the beginning weeks which will increase as time goes by ofc

4pullups? Could start on atleast 6-7

And instead of doing loads of non weighted situps, i'd say do 3 sets of increased weight situps, working for me

And this site has been posted alot, http://forum.bodybuilding.com/
Choose the workout section and say what you want etc and theres years of experience in there, not KO players with the odd people who acutally go to the gym

Is not too hard, but good enough to develope resistance and strenght, but not muscle. I like it.

who care wat u re-enlist into the bonus's u get for going back to watever is insane my bud was a marine and was going to join the army

he was looking at i think 30-40 k a year and a bonus of like 50 k because of being a marine in the past

tax free 70-80 k is like 130 k a year which nething 6 digits is good for serving your country !

Found this h34r:

[bomb5hell]

That is a good workout, but what most military people forget is the legs (yes running and swimming... that is not that much for the legs). Add a set or two of workouts just purely for legs (Not running). And for the harder weeks just add 2 more sets.

That's not that much. Iron Man requires to do 7.5 Km of swim in arround two hours to be anywhere among top.

It looks like a decent workout but it seems too easy for the seals. I'm just a regular af guy and i'm sure i could start on the last week 9 without any problems. If you're looking seriously into the bodybuilding type thing just situps pullups and push ups won't do it. You'll get stronger but i am willing to bet you would have better improvements if you incorperated weight training into that workout. Such as doing the pushups situps pull ups in the morning and going to the gym to lift weights in the afternoon. If you don't really have time for the gym but you want a great workout like that i'd look into that p90x program. It may sound like just another infomercial but trust me it's hardcore. It gave me one of the hardest workouts i've ever done, The only catch is you have to push yourself.
