I was one of those guys on the Army side. Did construction and lifted like a meathead until i was 28 then joined and went to SFAS. Got in but life happen.now I'm in my sedentary recovery phase and getting ready to possibly go back at 36. You guys motivate
@@StewSmith182thank you for the response from the legend himself! what program specifically do you recommend me follow? I’m an ex collegiate rower btw.
Stew, I'm 29 turning 30 in dec. I am not military but preparing for a pt test with 300m, 1.5 mile, push up and sit up standards. I purchased ur warrior workout 2 book. Is this a solid program to better my scores, or do you think I need to focus on those movements being scored only.
Sounds like the FBI fitness test. I would get a program that specifically addresses that one. Like the FBI fitness test work out. The warrior workouts are great ala cart workouts but it's not a program developed to ace a fitness specific test.
Stew Smith awesome, thank you for your response. I am trying to find your program for the test. I thought you put one out before. When I google it I can not find the link to the program. Can you share that for me? I enjoy watching you and Jeff Nichols videos!
Hi Stew smith. I have two questions. Is the ranger pft still being administered to try out for the 75th ranger regiment and would the buds warning order be a good workout program to prepare for BUDS or is that program not effective anymore?
Yes Ranger PFT is still being used Pullup, pushup, situps, 5 mile run. that is not a bad one if you need more endurance and muscle stamina (cals / cardio) BUT if you lack strength I would do a different program (that includes lifting / durability training with load bearing).
If the Army ranger pft is still being administered to become a member of the 75th ranger regiment, which test do i need to focus on? The ACFT or the Army Ranger pft?
Thank you. I also have a question in regards to the army pft. Has that fitness test been phased out for the army cft or is the army pft still being used?
Hey Stew I'm currently 25 ill be 26 in 6 months I want to tryout for the Navy Seals but Im a black guy that doesn't know how to swim what do you think I can do to prepare for Buds Im good at everything else Im an amateur boxer and I played soccer and football in jr high and high school

Hey stew I’m 32 years old and can crush the PST do I have a chance to go to BUDS?
Yes. There is a chance.
Hi Stew. Are they doing the ACFT at SFAS now, or still the old APFT + pull-ups?
Hi Stew. Have you ever heard of this book called Breaking Buds: How Regular Guys Can Become Navy SEALs by DH Xavier?
Yes
@@StewSmith182 On the first page, he listed the pst requirements, are those still the requirements or are they outdated?
@@kylejanof5165 I don’t have the book. But you can go to the official seal website and answer that question.
Hey stew - 24 6’0 260 ibs, previous collegiate athlete , where should I start
Weight loss. Calisthenics and Cardio to focus on muscle stamina / cardio weakness (I assume)
