Being Heavy might be bit problem for grip strength, SF has a lot of rope climbing and pull ups

Okay from my experience in air force and what master sergeant real told me love you better start learning first in last out. I say you need 6:30-7 mile run time. For higher chances. Pull ups regular or dead hang. The dead hang wil.give you more strength and higher chances. you need to be able. To do hundreds of them. Sit up and push up basically all day every day. Strength your core I say 6 inch leg lifts and planks can add weight on planks. Don't think basic is a waste of time is there to give you discipline and bonds. If you are doing special operations you might as well volunteer for a chow runner and get used to the stressful environment from the snake pit but also remember at basic you're getting evaluated every day by every mti. Some mti if they see potential in you may have it more stressful than other wingmen but they want to see if you have the capability to handle being under pressure for awhile. I'm not trying to discourage anyone from trying it I'm trying to give you a heads up. For the ones who did and tried even if you didn't make it through I salute you. You have more guts than most people.

This is my strength workout routine currently: Push day: Push ups (to failure), standing military press, weighted dips, kettlebell overhead carries, lateral raises. Pull day: Weighted pull ups, weighted chin ups, barbell rows, farmer carries, kettlebell forearm twists. Legs/abs day: Front squat, deadlift, bulgarian split squat, hanging leg raises, hanging oblique raises. Rest day 1: foam roller, hanging Full body day: rope climbs, sled pushes, sled pulls, kettlebell swings Rest Day 2: Foam roller, hanging *Repeat from beginning

Should I be aiming closer to 200 pounds if I am in that 6 foot 1 to 6 foot 2 range? And then dial in somewhere from 12-15% based on how my body feels?

Has BUD/S changed? It used to be that smaller guys were more likely to succeed. The old data says that the average SEAL was 5’10” and 170-175 pounds.

My problem Is not strenght,i can pretty easily deadlift 410 for 3/4 reps,squat 330 for more than 5 reps and bench press 225 for 5 reps at 185 lbs bw around at 18%bf My huge problem Is Endurance,i literally sucks at running,its like After 4 minutes of run my body desperactly asks me to stop.For me is really hard to run 2km at 4 Min/km

I was told zone 2 would help but train your body to run longer distance at slower pace. Once you got a rhythm then start on 2 mile runs with trying to run your 1st mile fast as fuck. Im trying different shit to get back to my 1330 time. Try sprints and incorporate sit up and push ups at the end of each sprint.

​@benharrold8467 100% correct keep your heart rate in zone 2 cardio for 60 min to build endurance and get your body used to oxygenating your blood. Focus on breathing through your nose (better O2 blood saturation) and your form think of your foot strikes like riding a skateboard and less like a sprint, back straight shoulders out. Also sauna 4x a week 20 min a time can increase endurance up to 30% because it strengthens your cardiovascular system and promotes healing and growth. I've taken 8 min off my 60 min run staying at a zone 2 pace in 6mo using these techniques.

Bro I would recommend to slow down your running pace. Start small, lower your bar. I know it sounds weird to say lower the bar, but achieve small wins. You can increase your endurance but I feel with your muscle mass you are running like a keynan cross country start haha. Start on Monday (just as an example). Jog for 5 minutes, slow pace. Tuesday, jog for 6 minutes Wednesday jog for 7 minutes Thursday jog for 8 minutes Friday jog for 9 minutes Take 2 days to rest The following week, start Monday with 6 minutes Tuesday 7 minutes Wednesday 8 minutes Thursday 9 minutes Friday 10 minutes This way your real suck is only 1 more minute, I know when we are beat to shit from training 1 minute can feel like an hour, but just think 1 second more is 1 second less Again this is to build endurance rather than speed, but I feel once your endurance is up it's easier to focus on just pushing a bit faster. Hope this helps brother and God loves you and creates you in his image. Stay strong

I know that research shows that the bigger candidates have more success but what if someone was 5’8 150 yet they reached or even exceeded the strength standards?

Definitely would like some clarification on those benchmark lifts mentioned at 4:50 (OHP, SQUAT & DEADLIFT) are they for a 1RM? or for multiple reps and/or sets?

Great

Question, how many reps are we talking on overhead press, squat and deadlift mentioned at the 2:17 mark of the video? Just 1 rep or for working sets?

Hi, after learning and observing i have made my perfect plan (week splits are at the bottom of this), but i am wondering if i once a month should have a dedicated running week, and a dedicated strength week+2 of the weeks i currently have? It is rather hard to do isolation/specific work 3 times a week or have a dedicated sprint day. Here is my current week: Monday morning: tempo trail run with dogs, evening: full body strength day (Z deadlift, BLG SP squat, OH Press, rows, dips, lat pull, tibs). Tuesday is rest. Wednesday is school gym on morning and full body in evening (ATG squat, elevated RDLS, incline dumbbell press, lat pulldown, farmers carry, abs, calf raises). Thursday is tempo run on track (1200m Hard>600m jog, 4x, then 800m breathhold runs, then 8 short hillsprints), Friday is long run (10-30k), saturday is a chalistenichs circuit followed by swimming (about 1k in a lake), sunday is rucking on a trail 25kg, 8-24k). I am 17. The proposed specific weeks will be this: (better structured ofc and one rest day), run week: full body strength, long run, zone 2 ruck, ruckrun 10-15kg, sprint session, intervall session, tempo run. Strength week: 1 run with dogs 6-10k, plyometrics day, upper, lower, isolation lifts then 40min heavy sled push, olympic lifts. Should i just keep the hybrid week during the full month, or should i add two dedicated strength and running weeks in my months of training? I would really appreciate an answer, i will also post this comment on the new vid, because i probably am abit late..

Providing data on candidates is useful, but I would find data on soldiers actively serving in SF more useful and provide data on what I should shoot for. Also, I would imagine that the different jobs in the squads that candidates are applying would need different levels of strength. In other words, the "heavy gunner" position would likely need to be stronger than the guy who carries a lighter load and focuses on the surveillance, running, or swimming focused tasks.

This is a nice idea but misses an important point: the fitness needed for selection is *different* from that required for operational performance. First train for selection and then after you're selected train for the job

Hey, thank you for the videos but I was wondering if you coul give me some tips on how to get my running times up in quite a short period of time. I have mandatory military service coming up in about 2 months and while Ik it's not exactly special ops, I would still like to get into a good unit and the main thing holding me back are my run times. My running is absolutely terrible. I have a 16min 2Mile (fucking horrendous for my weight and age ik), while having a 405 deadlift 240lbs bench and a 350squat. I started doing the Couch to 5k program a week ago as a hail mary, but are there any other recommendations you could give me? I'm 5'11 170lbs, 19, if that matters. P.s any tips from channel viewers would also be greatly appreciated!
