Hey gtoforce thanks for leaving me a comment kinda lonely talking to myself here haha
thats unfortunate to hear but nice to know im not the only one in malaysia trying to make it through the SEALS physical test.It takes half a year to train for which takes some patience.
For the swim i think its more on the technique cause i swim like hell and this fat man still over taking me without moving his legs much like me or stroking fast either..soo probably it might be the technique.There is this place in subang called 3k gym it has a pool and they give lessons. i too swim 2k in 45 minutes

<---frustration
the pulls up i hated before but consistently doing it every week- your body has no choice but to improve.I could not even do 3 the first time ..the trick is to give your body a days rest before re attempting it never do it 2 days straight in a row.
other then that maybe you should get the special cushions even though you are not trying to pass the test - prevents injuries
Added on August 17, 2008, 9:04 pmi dunno about pull ups but i do chin ups everyday i go to the gym
cuz i like the pull it gives to my back and delts and biceps and triceps
and because i do ultra slow reps and more sets first
i have a huge stamina as i have told ya
i can even outswim my uni's no.1 swimmer (although i have maybe 15% BF than him) but im no faster cuz he can finish 1k like 3-4mins before me but i can go further till 2-2.5k non stop (albeit short of breath at 1600m)...hahaha

there other crazier workout here like the beginner crossfit workout - X2610's that guys a machine!!
I run on treadmill i stop when i reach 30 minute mark for up to about 3 minutes(walk 4.5km/h pace) and then continue on ..not very fast pace average speed is 9.1km/h want to improve on that.
usually i run the first 30 minutes at 10km/h pace and after the short break i run at 9km/h..
If you think this is crazy you should see the documentary on NAVY seal training I find it inspiring! lol
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a47SFOgl7cYcrossfit's one of the best training out there and even endorsed by rippetoe although it depends on which routine ur following
but since i
i) got no partner
ii) am so lazy to read and understand what the heck is going on with the routine in crossfit
i thus used up all my stamina in the gym
maybe once i got enough money and get good shoes and insoles, will start back my running on the tracks (working in KLCC) and so far been running 4-5 rounds bare footed (bad for my already infected with viral warts foot

)
btw, are u in KL or are u in the states?
