    i'm 6'3 185-190 lbs, so superrrr lean. like cut tf up. the idea of putting on more weight isn't appealing to me at all. im agile, strong, and ready to leave selection in a body bag, but i keep hearing people talk about body fat, etc to survive schools like SERE. I know i have the frame for a 200+ build but I don't think my lack of weight will make or break me. im also working to increase my run time. it just seems very counterproductive(to me)

    1:00 in and I can understand his concerns...extremely small framed individual and certainly that will play a major role in terms of physiologically being able to take the abuse and grind of any special operations pipeline. 2:00 in our man Jake is setting him up...damn Jake you must know a thing or two about special operations pipelines. You play a lot of CoD or something? Oh wait, sorry...you're old school knuckle dragging get the fuck after it mentality...ha! I really like your videos man...not a Navy guy with my family history (Army ODA, WWII Marines) but no doubt you are doing an incredible thing mentoring these young bucks. Much love!

      Solid answers for the 115 cross country dude. I did basic at 130 (overseas military. Not US). I out ran and out swam everybody. Then came the prep for navy dive school, which was based on both US and Canadian navy dive standards. I managed at 130, but only because I had the grit part. Lots of rucking, lots of other load-bearing stuff and I did combatives.

    All these pre military guys need to first get a good relationship with being miserable as our baseline.Such as,filthy, cold,wet,hungry, fatigue, no rest, no sleep,and so on. Add to that nagging painful injuies. Then on top of this have to will function on a professional soldier level and STILL FINISHING the mission. That's what a lot of these cats can't do.

    when your a small guy all your life its easier to get bullied. military seem like it can get me tough mentality, the problem with this guy is that he has watch too many military movies that made it seem the seal teams or rangers or SF is cool thing to do. a couple weeks of training, maybe a few push ups, carry a light ruck sack for a couple of days, then its off to jumping out planes and doing building breaches and killing bad guys and its back home to tell kill stories around the fire. NOT even remotely accurate. Seal team, SFAS, Ranger training and ranger school, DEVGRU, CAG, Delta, Special mission units and so forth is some of the hardest training for a reason. This guy to need understand he needs to focus on getting through basic training first and needs to understand the SOF community is a very high risk and dangerous job skill. Quitting is not an option in combat. And his facial expression show he has the capacity to quit when Jake told him to run in clothes covered in sand for 13 miles. its called intestinal fortitude, If he had that I don't know if I want to do that mentality just with that suggestion, how in the world he thinks he can get through boot camp yet along the hardest military training in the armed forces.
