    Weighted Vest Insanity

    Well I'm on week three of my Spec Ops training and it is insane. I have already droped 10 pounds of BF. Had a 7 point BF test done by a military specialist and I am sitting at 6.2%. I will post some pics in another three weeks when I am finished the endurance part of training. The program looks like this:

    Week 1 - Mon,Wed,Fri,Sun.
    - 2 Mile run Completed in 13:00 min(10 pound vest on)
    - 4 sets 25 pushups(30 Pound vest on)
    - 4 sets 25 situps(30 pound vest on)
    - 4 sets 5 reps widegrip pullups(30 pound vest on)
    - 4 sets 100m sprints(10 pound vest)
    Week 2 - Mon,Wed,Fri,Sun.
    - 3 Mile run completed in 19:30 min(10 pound vest on)
    -5 sets 25 pushups(30 # vest)
    -5 sets 25 situps (unsupported 30# vest on)
    -5 sets 5 reps widegrip pullups(30 pound vest)
    - 25 min contineous swim.

    All completed non-stop for 1.5 to 2.0 hours
    Hell Week is only 6 months away.

    That is a nice routine for endurance and overall health. 25 minutes of consecutive swimming at the end of all that other training is death...
    The only time it's bad to feel the burn is when you're peeing...

    That is the point, this program is not "mind muscle" connection, nor is it a program designed to add mass through recovery. It is designed to make my body's V02 max go through the roof, a test of endurance and fortitude. I am not building my body to be judged by others. I am building a body that will keep going in the most extreme conditions, with a lack of food water and rest.
