4 years is a shit ton of time.

Just remember its mostly mental, there are tons of super fit guys who didnt make it because their mind can not handle it. Also since you're going in as an Officer you only have one shot unlike the enlisted guys.


Its not training, its a beat down. Its unhealthy for your body and you will power through if you truly want it.

Plenty of Seals training programs out there by Seals.
side note: Stay away from shooting, they will teach you and if you try to teach yourself you will most likely just teach yourself bad habits.

Anyway, goodluck buddy.

The super shitty thing about it is that if you dont pass the SEAL training you are still contracted to the navy so you cant just back out because you didnt get in like you wanted to

>I want to be a Navy SEAL. I have exactly four years to physically prepare myself by the time I graduate college

Don't tell yourself its unrealistic
Don't let other people bring you down
You need to be mentally strong as well as physical to get through BUDs.

You have no idea what you're in for my dude. You could train for 10 years and still fail BUDS. If you're really interested in the SOF community join the military for a few years and see if that kind of thing is for you. Ever considered MARSOC, army SF, marine recon, army rangers etc? A lot of people are just drawn to the prestige of SEALs and set themselves up for failure. Trust me I'm familiar with the community and am just looking out for a bro, not trying to bring you down.

>>41108428
>Ever considered MARSOC, army SF, marine recon, army rangers
are you seriously implying that the training for these are any less difficult than BUDs?

>>41107047
They think it's unrealistic because it's easier to become a pro athlete than to become a navy seal. If you are honestly the kind of person that has the determination to do it, good on you. If you want to know what that determination looks like, watch every video of marcus luttrel (lutrell?) on youtube. The dude basically had a fractured pelvis during buds and was still running miles a day. He had like 20-something through and through's in afghanistan during operation red wing. And he wasn't even on team 6/DEVGRU. Seriously, those dudes are a very different kind of person that have a level of autism most of us can't even comprehend.

I'm not trying to discourage you, but you better start training than you ever have in your life, like, yesterday.

>>41107047
Well, currently I want to get my deadlift to a 405 by new years. But I fell for the "cut for the summer" meme and my one rep max actually decreased by 60 lbs

If I'm going to stick with cutting until 10℅, then I'm going to finish in about June/July. So realistically I have about half a year to complete it. And since it took me a year to get 315 from 135, I'm not having high hopes to get a deadlifts from 265 to 405.

I changed up my routine, so hopefully I can at least increase some strength

I want to make my parents proud

I want to hit 1/2/3/4.
I can't imagine myself doing it at this point since I'm not even out of DYEL mode yet, and not more than 3 or so people in my gym are at that level.
I did 1pl8 bench for the first time today though, so that's great

>>41107047
>I have exactly four years to physically prepare myself
It's true you need to be fit but unless you are a complete fat ass then it shouldn't take you more than a year at the absolute most to get ready. When i joined the army i did nothing to prepare for it because i was active and played a lot of sort only thing i wish i had of done was build a bit more upper body strength.
Being smart a quick learner and an ability to improvise would be best to work on.

I'm training to become a vigilante once I get a double lung transplant in a few years

Why would you go for a Master's if you want to be a SEAL?

>>41108999
Because everyone nowadays seems to wipe their ass with a Bachelor's. Plus I want to go in as an officer and I know the last thing I'd do once I'm out if finish up a master's degree

>>41107047
Similar to OP
>have wanted to join the military since I could walk
>Have had asthma since birth
>Train from 16-21 with friends who are SF and rangers
>Ive trained cardio throughout the years to help but I still have asthma attacks occasionally
>Talk to recruiters and they say just lie about it
>Have an 18-X (SF recruit) contract waiting for me to sign
>Pussy out because Im terrified of dishonorable discharge if they find out I lied about my asthma

I will probably never join unless the US goes to war and are taking just about anyone. It's frustrating being fit, coherent, and combat trained and not being able to use it bc a shitty disease. Whats the most badass thing I can do as an asthmatic? I need to move on

>>41109027
Just a heads up, it's literally almost impossible to become a SEAL officer if you didn't go to the USNA or are already an enlisted SEAL.

>>41108493
This.
Recon isn't even SOF (they're SOF "capable") and they pretty much have their own version of BUDs

>>41108623
1/2/3/4 is not that hard friendo. You're gonna make it.

>>41107121
>Stay away from shooting, they will teach you and if you try to teach yourself you will most likely just teach yourself bad habits.
Lol what the fuck am I reading. I learned to shoot at like 7, why would this be a bad thing if I've been shooting my entire life?

>>41108999
>>41109027
Also the fact that there is much less room for advancement if you only have a bachelor's. Just like the rest of the military, federal lea, and most police departments, if you have a master's degree you're automatically going to have extra points connected to your name when considering who to promote.

>>41109370
The idea is that you might have bad habits that are hard to break if you've been doing them for years.

>>41109027
>>41109401

Ah interesting. I have an M.S. myself and considered going the SOF route, but with my hearing and vision it'd be an instant DQ. C'est la vie, good luck brah

Dude you have to decide what you want. You can either join as enlisted and go for SEAL or you join officer training. You will not become a SOF officer without having served as an enlisted in SOF before.
Source: me, airborne infantry officer candidate (germany)

I've always had the dream to go into SEALs, I loved swimming in high school and our coach was a green beret said that my personality and mindset would fit in with that crowd.

I was going to go for it straight out of high school but my family convinced me to go to college - I'm graduating in 3 weeks and plan on working for a year and training.

I made the mistake of telling people my goals all I got was ridicule only a very few people close to me were/are supportive of my goal to join.

Going to train my ass off for the next 1.5 years (get back into swimming and running). Maybe I'll see ya there OP

>>41109370
Because chances are you're not shooting the way they want you to.

I had the dream of being an Army ranger but I know I will never pass MEPS with my amblyopia. So now I just want to be a regular 11B Infantryman. I want to be as good of a warrior as I can be.

>>41108309
Why don't you just join the fucking Navy already instead of dicking around in school wasting your prime? You realize you can work on the pussy schoolwork stuff while you're serving. I will never fucking understand school cucks.

It's not unobtainable. You will need to dedicate yourself completely to it. It will need to come above everything else in your life.

I wanted to be a fighter pilot since I was 5. I told everyone I knew, and they thought it was just me daydreaming, even my family. I chased my dream every day, and I ended up typing this post wearing a flight suit.

Go for it, OP. To be among the best you need to be the best. There are no days off.

For the past year I've been taking acting classes, literally everybody from my friends to my coworkers to my family takes every chance they can to rib me about how much time and money I'm "giving away" by going to classes, getting headshots, traveling to auditions, buying books, etc etc etc. For example, I was eating with some friends last Thursday and we were talking about our high school days; I did an impression of a certain teacher we all had, and immediately somebody piped up with "Wow, those acting classes sure are paying off, anon!" Cue laughter.

I can understand their skepticism and I'm even willing to believe that they're trying to discourage me so I don't have to face disappointment and rejection in the future, and while I don't need or expect their support I would appreciate it if they understood that I've made a firm decision regarding what I'd like to do with my life. At the very least I'd hope they think up of some better jokes or jabs at my expense because I'm starting to get bored of hearing the same ones over and over.

>wearing a flight suit to browse 4chan

I want to be a Marine. I know that part isn't unrealistic, but I'm hoping that I can prove myself enough to be taken in as a Raider. I want to be the absolute best of the best and show everyone, including my past self, that they were wrong for ever doubting me. I want to see my parents' proud faces when their boy comes home a Raider after serving his country.

>>41111660
Just a tip: make sure you want to be a Raider because you actually want to be a Raider. Because I guarantee you will not make it if your primary reason for doing it is just to prove your worth.

This is a meme routine developed by a fat comic book writer because he didn't know anything about lifting or fighting and just wrote down what he thought looked cool. The only thing this routine will do is destroy you. There are no benefits to be had here.

I'm quite amphibious, all the underwater pool week 4 (whichever week it is) shit looked fun to me. But one guy struggled hard with simply laying a foot underwater and witholding water from draining down this throat. He couldn't pass simply because of this. I've tried it and my physiology doesn't auto-block water from rushing up my noes while laying head back...you might want to try this.

>>41110019
Have an agent be willing to take you on. Have a resume including local commercials, stage work, even get a job working on set to pay bills. That's how I'd do it, but the agent thing is pretty key then start forming relationships.

'Couch potato to navy seal in one year

Its a stupid goal, and one I wont achieve

>>41107047
I'm in college and a SEAL hopeful as well. Just keep your head down, work hard, and don't quit.
If you haven't already, be sure to check the forums on sealswcc website and the reddit /r/ navyseals or something. There's a ton of valuable information on there.
Just a heads up, /fit/ training is not always in line with preparing for BUD/S. You have 4 years, so you have plenty of time to work for aesthetics, pick up chicks, and have fun in college (like I'm doing). But by your junior year, you'll want to start focusing on the PTG, preparing for the PST.

I used to want to get into the SAS. Spent 5 years in the infantry and slowly my priorities changed. I got a GF and enjoyed life. Made plans to travel with her. Suddenly it didn't seem so attractive to be away for 9 months of the year and not able to tell people where. Few mates from my company got in that I used to train with and keep up with. If my relationship falls apart I'll probably go back and give it a shot, I'm still young enough.

When people say it's psychological they don't just mean pushing past your limits on selection course. It's sacrificing most of your life to the unit.

People will give you shit and say it's unrealistic because they've seen hundreds of slowflake recruits who think they couldn't possibly be "just" an infantryman, and turn out to be average to poor soldiers. So my advice would be to keep your aspirations mostly to yourself. Power through your training, never EVER let yourself stop when you feel you need to. The most valuable thing you can train is your ability to keep going when your body says you can't, and you can strengthen this willpower like you would a muscle.

>>41112730
This is almost always true. Sure there are a couple exceptions but for the most part the best shooters on any given military range learned how to shoot in the military. I literally never touched a gun before joining and I consistently shoot range high every time I do annual rifle qualification.

Then again there are a lot of people in the military who are just plain terrible at shooting, regardless of experience. I seriously can't believe how bad most of the military is at basic marksmanship.

But I digress. Marksmanship is low on the list of importance in SOF outside of the sniper community obviously. I wouldn't worry about it. They will teach you if you don't already know. If you can't learn to shoot, you wont stand a chance learning the actual stuff that seperates special operators from regular infantrymen.

>>41112682

Whenever I see people on this board talking about going SOF or whatever, I remember talking with a Raider who said at one point they shot teargas grenades all over a mountainside and everyone had to run through multiple miles of teargas with a 100lb ruck on their back and no gas mask. He said his existence just entered another dimension of pain and suffering and had no idea how the fuck he ever made it.

You could be the most fit dude in the world, if you don't have the mindset for SOF, you will never be SOF. From the SEALs I've been able to work with on a SSGN, nobody sitting in a thread like this going, "Hur I'm useless and wanna be somebody I'm gonna be a SEAL I guess," is ever going to make it. All of those guys were dead set fucking relentless on getting where they wanted to be. Not every SEAL grew up wanting to be one, but every SEAL grew up without ever learning what it feels like to quit. One of the fuckers I spoke with said he can't swim for shit but managed to gorilla his way through the swim tests until it came to the one where you have to get across the pool underwater without coming up. He failed it multiple times, and when they told him it was his last try, he dumped all of his air the second he hit the water and crawled across the pool on the bottom, losing consciousness right after touching the wall and had to be pulled out. Technically passed.

>>41107047
I wouldn't mind going to ranger school and getting tabbed.

>>41107047
I believe in you OP

>>41113382
Ok walter. Whatever you say mate.

>>41113382
This guy makes a good point too. If you want to be a special operator you need to be prepared to literally dedicate the rest of your life to the military. Youre basically a professional athlete, but with no off season. If you're not deployed, you're training. You might get a couple weeks a year to go home and visit your family, but your ass belongs to SOCOM.

I don't envy those guys. Huge amounts of respect, but it's not an appealing lifestyle

>>41113401
Don't underestimate what regular infantry know either though. I guess it's different in the US where the MOS is quite specialized. But in places like AUS, NZ, UK a corporal might have been in several of Recon, Snipers, Sigs, or DFSW, and done a platoon commander's course if he's looking at sergeant soon, after 10 years or more. SAS just takes it to the next level, perfecting absolutely everything and doing it over longer distances with worse odds.

>>41110019
Start small. Read up on Uta Hagen's work, and develop some insight into the craft, and look for workshops in your area. Once you're comfortable with the practice, start at small local and/or university theatres (depending on what's in your proximity). Look on community boards for things like student and independent films as well.

You may not want to do musicals, but it's a good idea to figure out your range and at least practice singing somewhat regularly, but not necessarily practice with shit on the radio. Dancing is also a plus, but again not needed outright.

I wouldn't get an agent until you've gotten some credits to your name first, simply because a) your history will let them know what you're capable of before they send you somewhere, and b) their personal financial stake with a total freshman is low so they aren't as likely to give you enough attention.

I would also do some of what >>41113273 said, specifically the stage hand and set jobs, because it gets your foot in the door with actors and other professionals that can point the way and help you out. It also teaches you the process behind everything, since walking into a tech as an actor that is totally new to everything may throw you off and slow everything down, hurting your image.

Yep. Pretty much standard procedure at any military school worth a shit. It's fucking sadistic, but it's also a rite of passage. At SSBC they gas you right in the middle of a 12 mile ruck which is the final exercise before you become a sniper. Dudes were crying and puking (myself included) but once you've made it that far not a single person is thinking about giving up.

There are plenty of dudes who look like out of shape turds that make it into SOF and other elite units, only difference is they have some reservoir of strength they can access that your average person can't.

Now, that might not look unrealistic for you but the problem is I need to get permanent residency in the US first.

I have CF with basically below 50% lung capacity. In a few years (within the next 10 or so) the damage will have gotten so bad that it'll warrant a double transplant if I am to keep living outside of a hospital setting. I'm getting fit so that once the transplant occurs, I'll be in a good position to hopefully recover quicker, rebuild any lost strength (recovery usually takes several months) and become a vigilante protecting others.

I have all the plans for everything drawn up, my studies are beneficial for this plan, and I'm just focused on getting fit for now, with the next step being to make money for the initial gear in a couple years

literally every 'spechshul operator' i know is on steroids

I went with my Army friend on to the base to use their gym, there was heaps of massive guys there who were clearly juicing. Literally what do these guys do if they get deployed? Steroids create a dependence. You cannot quit the shit cold turkey, especially not in a war zone.
Being an elite soldie, you should have the ability to survive for weeks/months on end in a battlefield, as a PWO etc. You do NOT want to be stuck with low T in that situation, it literally could mean death.
Using steroids in the military seems absolutely stupid.

thats funny because /pol/ is full of fags that call anyone who served a welfare queen

spare me with your "no one knows suffering as I have" self righteous bullshit
I know your type, the kind of person who can't commit to getting a degree at college and has no tradable craft so you join reluctantly join the military because you saw it as "your only option", or rather the "easy" way out. The recruiter sweet talked you and you joined not realizing the life style and commitment it required only to wish you were back home rotting away in front you computer, counting the days until you finally get your DD214. You probably also chose some shit job like infantry or joined the marines. So you deeply regret it because you saw the whole ordeal as a huge waste of time and a huge emotional drain on yourself, thinking if you could go back you'd have gone to college but in reality you wouldn't have. The military is filled with hopeless fools that join for the wrong reason and chances are you are one of them.

>>41107047
I don't tell anyone thus because of how absurd it sounds coming from me. I want to fight proffessionally.

Growing up I was always obese and therefore was never good at sports. I'm clumsy and uncoordinated, even when I walk I'm tripping over myself.

But during a rough time in my life I got picked on a lot and lost some weight and got in a bunch of fights. And the weird thing was, when i got into fights things felt right and made sense, It was incredibly naural for me. So I did varsity wrestling for a while and now I'm doing boxing.

In wrestling I was okay, but I was always able to get people's backs and flatten them out even if they were taller and heavier and stronger, I'm just good at that one thing.

In boxing though, I've been to 2 gyms and both coaches immediately commented on my punching power when I worked the bags.

The second week at my current gym the coach saw my bag work and wanted me to do a hard spar with him because he noticed I was a southpaw with heavy hands. He told me to go hard on him and I managed to slip a punch and land a left hook that knocked him off his feet and he told me he wanted me to join the competetive team.

Conveniently my brother is good at jui jitsu and has taught me some submissions and basic techniques.

But point is, every fighting sport I've ever done has felt so natural to me. It's a pipe dream I guess, but outside of a ring I'm a clumsy fuck up and this is the one skill I have. I wanna make something out of it.

Go for it man. Just know that if you really want to make it professionally it's got to become all consuming. It can't be something that you're just naturally good at, you have to work harder at it than you've ever worked at anything before. You need to be practicing, conditioning, lifting, and whatever else boxers need to do like your life depends on it. Give it your absolute all and you can make it. Anything less and you won't. Good luck dude.

Go from a 18 min two mile to 14 min two mile before even leaving for meps.

Get to meps find out im r/g colorblind which is a no go for army combat mos let alone ranger. Push through and say fuck it ill just go to a marine recruiter after getting cleared since they dont care about it.

Docs find self harm scars from when I was a dyel. Deny it, they bring in the head doc, keep denying it, they threaten to bring in MPs, I panic and cave, they leave and I beg the lady to let it slide tell her how I lost 90 lbs since cutting and burning myself and got my life together. She doesnt care she says some shit like what would you do in my situation and stamps my profile with DQ.

Get reccomended for a waiver. Recruiter says I didnt get it. Not sure if he was bsing or not, but the wound is too fresh for me to deal with it still. Had a 93 on the asvab so you would think he would want to work with me. Then again he was lazy and fucked up my paperwork over and over. Even the staff at meps reception were talking shit about the people from my recruiting station

So what are the vision requirements for SOF (non-SEAL)? I've got meh eyesight and minor astigmatism, but I've read that you can go through SFAS and even CCT/PJ training with glasses and get PRK or LASEK when you pass. Everything else is fine with my body (afaik).

decided i wanted to join the marines back in junior year, and finally managed to talk to a recruiter senior year bcus they were always there during lunch hours. couldn't even do a push up or run a mile. i started going to the PT sessions a couple months later, but i fucking sucked compared to everyone else, and couldn't even hang from the pull up bar. i stopped going for a while because i was too ashamed, and then stuff happened and ended up gaining like 10 lbs. i've gotten into contact with my recruiter again, and just started going to PT again last week. pretty much it was all pullups, so naturally i did terrible, and even skipped PT this week because i was too nervous, lol... but i have been going to the gym almost everyday this time, and i've actually been making an effort to cut my calories and even lost 4 of the 10 lbs i gained. i'm hoping to actually stick to it this time and be sworn in by december after losing like 50 lbs.

>>41109807
don't worry I have perfect A levels and still NEET. I just don't want to do anything.

>>41124237
Shit like eye surgery is bad for you and fucks you up more often than not, and the military knows this. They probably won't even take you/keep you in if you get some shit like LASEK. At least, that's what I read when I was looking into vision requires a while ago.

Your vision just has to be correctable to a certain standard. It's different for ever SOF branch. For example Green Berets need you to be correctable to 20/20, Rangers less than that. You have to look into the specific requirements for what you're going for.

It doesn't matter if you have to have your vision be corrected to meet the standard, what matters is that you meet the standard. You'll be wearing some glasses or goggles for safety most of the time if you got in so it's not a problem with having to wear corrective lenses I'm pretty sure.

As long as your eyes aren't COMPLETE SHIT you probably don't have to worry about it.

>>41124237

though you may be disqualified or have to get a waiver for an astigmatism, I can't remember.. This is something you should be doing research on your own about.
