Hi my name is chris, i am a new commer here and i have really enjoyed this site so far, umm you guy appear to be real informative so i just wanted to ask, how much preperation did each of you do before going to BUD/s or before joining the navy for that matter?

thanks, moose

Welcome to the site chris. BUD/S is 90% mental, 10% physical. For preperation I just physically trained my butt off. When I got to BUD/S I was prepared physically. Mentally you will see if you have what it takes when you get there. Follow the PT workout on this site and you will be physically prepared. You can NOT mentally prepare for BUD/S. You will either have what it akes when you get there or you will not. You must have that never give up attitude, determination and motivation to succeed to make it. I worked out all through high school doing PT to stay in shape. Then in A School, I had my own regimen of running, swimming, push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups and dips. I never did any weight training to prepare. That is NOT necessary for BUD/S preperation. Hope this answers your question. Good luck too....
