[@chrismanning1171]

At age 40 I went to the Army National Guard. As a prior service Army E5 I went OCS. I ran a 33 minute five mile, 1 hour 19 minute 6 miles ruck march with a 50lbs ruck and had a completion time of 1 hour 30 minutes, and I also had to do a 80% PT test the day prior. I was passing some of the younger soldiers in all events and the infantry guys blew my doors off. I did not make OCS selection because of my age. I had been trying to join the guard for the pass three years and by the time I got commissioned I would past the age limit. I did not make it but I did tried my best. I trained in the gym and running in the park. I ran hills to get myself in shape and lifted weights for strength. When I ran for the first time I ran a 25 minute 2 mile. Plus, I was also studying for the ASVAB, going to college, working 40 hours per week, and being a family man. Its about conditioning your mind also that 12 years in the Army prepared me for.

[@internet_internet]

I’m 6’3, have been as heavy as 245 of lean powerlifting muscle, and as light as 175 of pure cardio shark. Longest mileage weeks were probably 50-55 for a while getting ready for the PST that I ultimately decided not to pursue again my second time around. My best 1.5 run ever was a 9:50-9:55 when I was 18-19. Recruiters absolutely screwed me back then. Long story - got an early & unexpected “fraudulent enlistment” discharge, and so did another SEAL hopeful/candidate who shipping out from my same recruiting office a few months before me… My second best 1.5 run was probably a 10:15-10:20 at age 25-26. My 4-mile timed runs were also never quite where they needed to be. I could definitely pass them on flat terrain, but I was never going to get under a 30 minute 4 mile in the soft sand in boots & pants. Have been running consistently since age 16. Currently 29, around 220lbs. Ran 5.5 the other night, still walking at least 25 miles a week, probably only running right around 12 right now. I don’t get shin splints. Never have. Grew up skateboarding throwing myself down big obstacles, and playing tough Texas football from a young age. Football coaches hated me for being a skateboarder as well, and I wasn’t about to quit skating like they expected me to, so I never got to play past 8th grade. Been running, walking, & rucking medium to long mile distances regularly for nearly 15 years, played many sports before that, and I’ve been working entirely on my feet using my legs, back & arms pretty much my whole life. Takes volume. Probably a buildup of a history of volume, too. Also, eat lacinto kale. Too much oxalates in spinach. Had to get a 7-9mm kidney stone surgically removed once from oxalates. Not fun. I also don’t consume any dairy. Too inflammatory and fattening for my particular body. Point being, I could never get my run any better than what it was, although I never had Jake’s PDF back then. It took everything I had in me just to get the times that I did, and they weren’t sustainable for very long. Swim was much easier than run for me, also. Best swim was 8:34. Could swim a 9:30-9:40 on my worst day while literally puking in the middle of the swim. Some guys just can’t run what it takes. I also had 3 knee surgeries by the age of 20, two minor surgeries, and one major. I think the major one messed up my body’s symmetry/alignment for life, which makes things more difficult for me. 3 knee surgeries, and I still put in work and miles. Volume.

[@bryanknight1056]

Don't feel bad bro, I couldn't run either and it'd take all my effort training and during the event to maintain mediocre numbers. What was really weird strange about it though is I could ruck better than most. You'd think it'd be transferable but it's not

[@jakezweig]

Yah stride length is the key

[@ph5915]

Reality and Truth, as always, Mr. Zweig! The few guys I've seen from the SF community, all knew early on, that's what they wanted to do and lived the life as a youngster that set themselves up for it. There has always been a certain percentage of the population that is suited to SF, and it's okay if one is not, there is always honor in serving the higher cause. Gotta keep helping them assess themselves for what is the best path for them, vs. the idealistic, romantic notion.

You'll know from a young age whether your genetics are top tier. Programs like the Navy SEALs are designed for the best of the best. I have horrible genetics, asthma, allergies, IBS, etc., but I still have a deep appreciation for these superhuman specimens.

[@thegrymwolf6360]

I completely agree with you. Huge respect for these guys and the grit they got. Great genetics too.

[@jesus85ize]

You have to understand this is where Navy seals get their confidence. The seed is planted the first day of buds. Going through adversity like that with other men, creates a blood bond, which allows you to work hard for your teammate. The whole pipeline is to discourage individualismand reward teamwork

[@jesus85ize]

Due to the adversity, such as hell, weak, going through your barriers, pushing yourself outside your comfort zone over and over again creates confidence. When you do things that not too many people do or want to do, it gives you a sense of confidence around others because you know they have been trained like you.

Used Gatorade cups filled with water… frozen, rub on shins with a towel underneath. Shin splints are like calluses… just keep working. We were all d1 athletes and had conditioned for years before running real distances.

[@ChazMicheals]

Jake is throwing some hard truth, and reality and expectation management. I don’t know shit about SEALs, but I do know that I did no athletics in high school and was not a fit dude, and subsequently did not have the muscle mass at 17 that I should have. I was a normal, not special infantryman (went in early GWOT era), and OSUT and the initial portion of my career and at my first unit were much harder than they had to be. I was able to work my ass off, and while I did get absolutely crushed until I was able to score a 270, when I did it was an amazing feeling. You’ll get there, but it takes a lot of work if you did not develop muscle mass and bone density in your youth. I deployed pretty early into my career, and it was only then that I finally caught up on the muscle mass that I should have had (but didn’t due to lack of athletics growing up) and started being able to go on the extended scale with pushups. I Anyways, the beginning of my career was harder than it had to be, and he’s spot on in what he says about willpower vs physical preparation. Everyone I served with that wrestled in school was a great Soldier, at least that’s what I saw (anecdotally, of course, but wrestling in school seems to have prepared guys well for military service as a general statement).

[@jakezweig]

Thank you for your service!!!! Thanks for the facta

[@ChazMicheals]

@@jakezweigcheers bro! Thanks back at you; it’s cool the way you are coaching people in a very real way. People always talk about mental resiliency, but that physical resiliency that one needs isn’t brought up so much. I was just a normal infantryman and I loved it. I got to catch up physically and grow, and do some fairly cool stuff. I got where I needed to be, but it would have been much easier if I had a baseline of physical resiliency. The infantry life isn’t the easiest, but people will get where they need to be, and not fail and chip paint. The way you steer people into the right branches and jobs is legit.

Don't believe that 80 sucks guy, I passed my Seal prequal in boot camp and I'm telling you not a fucking one of the dudes that were logging over 100 push-ups and 20 pull-ups were doing their push ups/ pull ups clean. A perfect score for the push-ups is 120 which obviously 1 push up per second for 2 minutes straight. AND NO ONE, Navy SEAL or not is going to put out those numbers every day, day in and day out, the human body doesn't recouperate that fast even at 17 and most definitely not at 30+ And let's be clear, it's quite easy to watch buds classes on YT and there's no reason to go that hard for longevity. And LET'S BE REAL AND REAL FN clear here, if you want to be a life time operator with minimal damage, quit with the FN SUPERMAN BS. Take your time to prepare, make your times count and the rest will follow. Physical training follows the same MO, Slow is smooth, smooth is fast.

I was always a sprinter running sud 5 min miles but that was it so in the army infantry i got absolutely crushed and with deployments and everything else building up it took me about 2 years to get 13min 2 miles or less and consistently after being smoked for hours but as far as shin splints brother you have to push through hair line fractures it sucks but you gotta run it and even enjoy it aside from that shoes shoes shoes keep going through different ones until you find the right ones embrace the pain brother. Once i changed my body to be able to knock out 10 mile runs and to not get side eyed ibwas still able to keep my one mile time at 5 flat at a mile high. Also dont get it twisted some guys no matter what just cant run even though they can knock absolutely everything else out the water and ive helped dudes run till they had to go to the hospital so if your one of the ones that cant thats ok you just gotta go in a different direction.

Air Force perspective here: It is luck/timing for aircraft selection. True, top performers can get their choice, if that aircraft is available.

If this dude reads the comments and happens to see mine, first and foremost don’t give up on yourself, keep going bro ! Been there too, terrible shin splints problem. Worked up to 20-25 miles of running a week and held it for couple of months, now I have new limits of milage and I’m chilling running 10-12km at a pop 4-5 times a week. Hell I may even squeeze in a few interval 400/800m sprints every few days combined with (shorter) long runs on that day. Just go go go run like wolverine !!! Try to hold a goal pace (7min/mile) for 1 mile than 2 miles 3 miles so on as you progress for as long as you can and than complete your run at your natural conversational pace. Guarantee you that running 28-29 min 4 mile timed run will become a natural standard. Just saying what I observed within myself. Hopefully this helps anyone reading it
