THE U.S. Navy SEAL Workout!
Who must be in top physical shape to perform their job? Who must utilize all muscle in order to accomplish their task?
I'm not talking about professional bodybuilders, I'm talking about our nation's elite fighting force - The U.S. Navy SEALs. These brave men are not worried about how they look in front of the judges, but how they are judged by their superiors.
Living by the mentality that they must perform to the best of their ability on every mission is why they are so successful. But how do these men get in shape in that short period of time called basic training?
Bodybuilding takes years to come across the perfect physique and even then, some bodybuilders are still not happy with the results. The SEALs take a different approach to training, they are concerned with strength and endurance, not symmetry and hair loss products. In this article, I will outline a Navy SEAL workout someone gave to me.
This program is about 9 weeks. During this program, you should notice your endurance soaring to heights never imagined. Like Navy SEAL training, this program will break you - only the mentally strong will survive and a new, strengthened man will emerge.

Conclusion
As you can see, this program builds your endurance and your strength. Also, looking at this program, rest days are few and far between. Hence, one should take in an adequate supply of the necessary nutrients and water.
There is no doubt that such a program as this one will work, however, doing this program requires commitment and determination. The exercises are simple - they involve no sophisticated movements or machines.
After the fat has been shed and the muscle is packed on, try out for the SEALs and see if you can make it.
