I sure couldn’t do all that, especially not at my age.
But I did buy a TRX device, invented by a Navy Seal. It’s small, portable and uses your own bodyweight to perform the exercises. No special equipment needed, a tree branch or a swingset will do. And boy does it work.
“Speak”, and eat raw fish.
I would a break record there the SEALs would talk about for generations... as the fastest to ring the bell to get out.
I think the Spartans were well before the Samurai.

In 1968, I went thru SERE school beginning at North Island in southern California. North Island was a SEAL training base and probably still is.
When I arrived, I noticed lots of people who never stopped in one place unless they continued jogging, in place. They never stopped. Those were wannabe SEALS, already qualified as UDT personnel.
That’s a job I didn’t want then and don’t want now.
Just pre-ordered the book for my Nook.
Sweet...
Baby hate fat...
I’m sure this program is way too tough for me. I have a suspicion, though, that tough as it is, it will be relatively moderate compared to actual SEAL training.
First, because the executives and so on are paying customers. The point will not be to weed out candidates not able to pass muster for an elite force routinely asked to do the near impossible, but to see those paying customers get their money’s worth.
Second, and I don’t mean this to sound sexist, but the story states that 20 to 30 percent of the class is typically female. I’m sure the women who sign up for this class are far more fit and athletic than I will ever be (and many could probably could kick my butt rather easily). But I question whether that many women could really possess the physical strength to complete actual SEAL physical training. Most men don’t, even in the prime of youth. I certainly couldn’t have hacked it.
I’m sure it’s a fine program, but I’m just sayin’.
Get ready to see record numbers of heart attacks its anythink like true Navy SEAL training.
Good luck with THAT!
Yeah. Because the one thing that made me the systems administrator I am is getting up at 0400 and running through the surf with seven buddies carrying a telephone pole.
