How would you prepare yourselves?

Hopefully this thread isn't breaking any rules, If it is I apologize.


Lets all get hypothetical for a moment as we discuss this question:

"You are wanting to be in your country's special forces, how would you prepare yourselves?"

Here's the rules:

1. You have 5 years max (if this is possible).

2. You only have a basic level of fitness, so 30 Press-ups max, 2-3 Pull-ups max and 10 minute miles.

3. Weight lifting is allowed but not preferred, who doesn't like calisthenics?

4. There is no rule 4.


I just thought it would be fun to here what you quiet professionals have to say about this, also if you think of any rules or the likes, i'll add them.

Are we bored, having read all of the discussions here already on SF Prep?
