Seal?

[FS1]

Thankyou Theo and Guppy, I won't take scuba now. My 1st pst is on wednesday, I do breastsroke 500 yds in 8:15, 55 pushup, 60 situp, 10 pullup, 10:30 run so my scores are good.

My recruiter says my swim time could give me a SEAL contract. I want lose 18 pounds and then I am even better at pst!

Swim time is good. Most mentors dont let SO hopefuls do breaststroke though, generally were required to do css.

Your push ups are 5 above minimum.
Your sit ups are 10 above minimum.
Your pull ups are 2 below minimum.

Your run time is a fail.

And unless you have practiced to the same standards as you will be proctored to and witch each activity back to back like it will be on test day, subtract a few reps from each.

If your district has an auto qual option you may get a contract if you pass all the minimums and have a combined run and swim time of Less than 18:00, but AQ is rare and you will most likely need to draft.

For the draft minimum scores are as good as fails. The top scores get picked up. The rest continue to draft until they're either competitive or ship out on their dep'd in rate.

Do more research. BUD/S isnt about passing minimums and surviving. BUD/S is about performance. Performance ensures your survival.

Dont get the wrong message, just being upfront with you.
If your running a 10+ mile on a nice track after a good night sleep, how are you going to do on a 4 mile timed run in boots and sand after shit sleep and a day of strenuous work?

Thanks theo. I am pumped for pst tomorrow! You know what they do if snow is outside? Snowing today here. Do we run in the snow? That would hurt my time. I hope they have treadmill! But running in snow would be fun to!

No treadmills. You may run in the snow. Depends on alot, namely the mentors choice.

I can't tell if your just really naive or trolling. If not, its a little crazy how cavalier you are towards your future. Tomorrow will be an eye opener.

Just got back from pst. We did run on treadmills Theo! Because it was colder then 32*. They made us put incline at 1% and they write down the time/distance of when you start. I try to start at 10mph but I had to cut down to 8mph. Final time was 10:20.

Final result is swim 8;21 pushup 64 situp 62 pullup 10 run 10;20. They say my numbers are good first time showing. And good for 18 yo. And a guy with a SEAL contract stay after pst to help me get Navy SEAL stroke down. He was very helpful.

Now I am excited for pst 2 weeks from now! I dont know why you write I was trolling. This was the first snow we had here all winter!
