Congratulations! You guys have complete the on ramp section of our SEAL training program. By this point you have learned that each session is much more than a workout… we don’t just roll in the door, kick our own butts, and walk back out. The attention to detail is what matters here, from the breathing, to the baseline, to the workout briefing, to the yoga and/or stretching cool down. There is a protocol that we strictly follow in order to be sure each training session is holistic and addresses our bodies and our minds, our training and our recovery. Now that we have this system down, it’s time to move on to the basic training phase!
Focus on the positive things that happened every day. Record three things you are grateful for in your journal nightly.
One of the aspects of the SEALFIT training program that sets it apart from most others, is the importance it places on mental training and a positive attitude. Mark Devine makes it clear that you need to get your mind right in order to get your body right. He says that you shouldn’t even begin to tackle any physical challenge until you have already won it in your mind. In order to reach any of your goals, it’s important to begin with an optimistic attitude; a negative attitude certainly won’t get you very far.
One very simple way to work on cultivating optimism is by practicing gratitude. By focusing on the positive things in your life, no matter how small, you will begin to see and attract MORE positive things, and the negative things will disappear. If you focus on the negative, you will only continue to create more negative. Creating an optimistic attitude improves your psychological health, which improves your physical health. It’s all connected! We can’t optimize our physical health without optimizing our mental health, so it’s important to be as driven and consistent with your mental exercises as you are with the workouts in the gym. This practice will only take a few minutes every night, but the key is consistency! Don’t skip a single day. Your training journal will nowcontain your workout results, water intake, daily nutrition, and three things you’re grateful for every day.

The Paleo Treats have to go! Unfortunately, their prices are going up due to cost of the ingredients, so I won't be ordering more. These treats sell for $7 each, but I'm getting rid of them for $4 each or 3 for $10. Get them while you can, because once they're gone, they're gone!

Eat protein, veggies and/or fruit, and fat at every meal. No processed foods, added sugar, or grains! Limit fruit to 2 per day and get in as many veggies as you can.
Now that you guys have your breathing, hydration and sleep in order, it’s time to start fueling up properly! Together, these four pieces complete the physical aspects of your durability (or recovery) habits. If you still haven’t been consistent with the breathing practice, water intake or sleep, stop right here! Don’t even attempt these nutrition guidelines until the other habits are solidly in place. Go back to the goals you haven’t been consistent with and work on those. Record your progress daily in your journal, and then come back to this week’s goal.
So, what does SEAL fuel look like? Basically, it’s a modified version of the Paleo diet. And why the heck does this dang Paleo diet keep popping up?! Because it decreases inflammation. Whether or not you have allergies or sensitivities to wheat, the fact is, wheat (along with many other foods in our modern diet) is highly inflammatory. If your body doesn’t have to work hard to recover from the “foods” you’re eating, then it can focus more energy on muscle recovery! In short, fresh food makes healthy bodies. You won’t find a healthy body in a box of cereal.
Here are the 5 steps you need to follow; please, don’t count calories! Just focus on the types of foods you’re eating, and use these 5 rules to guide your food choices:
*Many paleo nutritionists have gone back on the “no white potatoes” rule and now state that it’s ok to keep them in your diet. The SEALFIT book still recommends that you remove them, but it was published in 2014. So this one is up to you!
Is you're head spinning yet? To make this simpler, every meal should consist of vegetables and/or fruit, protein (eggs, poultry, meat, fish, of as high a quality as possible), and quality fat. Don't count calories- just eat real food!
