Help me with some ideas guys.
I am thinking of doing this Navy Seal workout. I dont know if you guys have seen it or not, its a 9 week running schedule and it includes 3 days per week of Pushups, Pullups, Situps. The running schedule calls for Mon/Wed/Fri runs for the first 4 weeks, and then Mon/Tue/Thu/Fri runs for the next 5. I am wanting to include a few weight lifting movements into the mix for good measure. Like I said, I will be doing a lot of Pushups, Pullups, Situps so I dont want to over train. The exercises I want to work in are Dumbell Incline, Leg Press, Lower Back Hypers, Dips,
and maybe an overhead press and a row movement. Any ideas??? I will paste the workout below so youll know what it looks like.

By the way, I will be starting the running schedule on week 4 because I have been running 2 miles X 3 times per week for the past 3 weeks anyway so no need to do the first 3 weeks, but Ill start with week 1 of the pushups, etc.

Trust me....it's a good workout, tough as hell but it's a good one. I did it to get me ready for BUDDS when I joined the Navy. You will lose alot of weight while doing this. I went from 200 to about 185-190 in the matter of weeks. You will however be in some of the best shape of your life. This definatly is not a mass building regiment, instead you will burn alot of bf and some muscle. Now you will become stronger in some areas and your endurance will shoot through the roof. Take it easy with any leg exercises with this program, because your legs will be getting a hellacious workout from all the running. Stretch, drink plenty of fluids and get those carbs in as well as the protein....you will be burning alot of calories while doing this. Good luck, also if you can work in the pool exercises, this will really get you into a lean body state.

So you think I should just follow this routine and scrap the whole weight training idea until I am finished?

Also, how did you eat while training this way?
-

I ate damn near everything in site, because you'll be burning ALOT of calories. I would recommend upping your carbs...like this 30/50/20
30%-protein/50%-carbs/20%-fat. I wouldn't scrap weight training. The "SEAL" program is to shed any unwanted body weight and to build up endurance. I would go 3-4 days of weight training if your body can handle it. Just keep your calories up or you'll DROP weight fast doing this program.

i'm thinkin about tryin this...my running could really use some help
but..i'm willing to bet the sets of pushups and pullups are enough to kill me...i'll just vary the height of my feet during pushups and the % decline during situps...
guess i'll try it for a week before i put weights back in maybe

It's a good workout to build endurance, and to loose damn near every ounce of bf. Before I went to BUDD's I did this for a few months. My endurance was ok but no where it needed to be to complete BUDD's school. Well after finishing the program, I had lost a "shitload" of bf and my endurance seemed to have no end. All I can say is I hope you like to run, I know I sure don't...LOL

Since you're already running that much it should be fine, but I would take the week off to give yourself some rest. Just keep the weight training goingthat week, but take a break from the running.

Sure.....just at anytime your body starts getting to run down take a day or so off. Just remember to keep pushing yourself, this isn't a very easy workout, unlees you run all the time now as it is.
