OPERATOR and military fitness general

Free bump OP. I usually just lift and MMA training (not in military).

Curious what other people do

Good on you, Anon! I wish there were some affordable MMA gyms close to my place, I would be really happy to give it a shot.

I do a day of weights, pull ups, deadlifts, weighted sit ups, bench presses, then to finish it I do sprints in the gym till I can't move anymore.

Then on a cardio day I'll either do a 5K run or half an hour of rowing.

For enclosed spaces where I can't get outdoors I do a little high-intensity circuit, mountain climbers, star jumps, breakdances, donkey kicks, press ups and sit ups, rotating through for about twenty minutes.

Every few weeks I'll do a weighted march just to make sure my legs don't forget the feeling.

I'm in the British Army.

Pull ups
Pistol squats
Push ups
Leg lifts

4-6 sets, 2-3x a week

I need to run more instead honestly. I just lift to try to look juicy naked

It's a running man's world. I'm at a 26:30 5k and I have to bring it down below 22:00 to pass selection.

Thanks Heart Disease

SF selection is not just running. Use the Four Horseman Workout Program. Best way to get ready. Selection is made much easier if you prepare your tendons properly. Goodluck.

I hear the one of the worst things about BUD/S is the 'boats on heads' running miles in soft sand carying large weight. They say legs are the most important. Lots of squats and shit.

My favorite leg exercise is weighted step ups.
grab a couple 50lb dumbells and step up on one of those metal stools most gyms have, or the bench if they don't. See if you can keep a decent pace for 5 minutes.

If SF selection is all about cardio, why does the average SF guy look like he's 220?

They are passed selection.

The best

You get all sorts of body types in SF. Some are average, some are 7' lanklets who look like their legs are going to snap at any second, and some look like Cpt. America.

>>31881496
You got any examples of a skelly oper8r?

>>31881496
The lanky ones are usually the last ones to drop. I was 6'3"/215lbs when in my best shape and I could barely keep up with those skinny fuckers.

>>31880246
Because once you pass selection you just need to keep in good enough shape.
Not killing yourself anymore to improve run times or rep counts for calisthenics.

Then theres the fact that so many of these guys are on gear.
Plus I knew a guy in SF (18D) that would train and do Powerlifting competitions and would also do triathlons.
Idk how he balanced his lifting with that intense cardio but he was on gear.
He would warm up his pull day by doing 25 wide-grip dead-hang pull ups with 45 pounds chained to his waist, drop the weight, and do 25 more of those pull ups

Regiment?

Generally i do interval training 1 min sprint, 1 min jog, repeat for 10 mins. Then up the speed. Occasionally do a 1.5 mile run just to see my time, currently 9.45, want to get that lower.

Then I do general lifting. Dead lifts, bench press, shoulder press, squats, pull ups, tricep dips all that stuff.
