i read in a forum this guy did the 500 yard swim in 6:06 minutes. Fucking machine....breast stroke ftw?
way too loud
12:45 for 1.5 miles isint to hard but then again it is just the bare minimum u need to even qualify.
awwww gay....short shorts
@NightnGales The ones he's talking about in the video are the bare minimums. You have to be above and beyond.
The Navy's special forces
WHATS THE SONG NAME DURING THE PULLUP SECTION PLEASE?
Let's clear up the ignorance here. Every pst around the country is ran differently. Those push-ups, sit-ups, and pull-ups were complete horse shit. The CSS form was equally as bad. No you don't have to wear boots and pants to get a SEAL contract. That's required in boot camp at 800th division not when trying to obtain a contract.
The form on all this is so lenient. The Air Force past test is much more strict on things compared to this. It seems like they allow you to do whatever you want on this.
I did the PST yesterday for my first time. Never swam down and back in a real pool before..
Lets just say im surprised I even finished it.
Our pushups we had to touch our chests. On situps, my elbows had to touch the top of my knees. You think you can do like 10 pullups but after all that stuff, I could do like 5! So embarrassing!
The 1.5 miles run was the easiest I have to say. Then we ran half a mile back as a 'cooldown'.
Hardest thing i've ever done. Will never smoke again. Rofl

@shootcentermass I dunno, man. I could do the exercises listed in this video every day for a week, no problem. I think anyone in reasonably good shape could keep up, but I'm sure there's more to it than just this! :-)
8 min swim, 100+ pushups, 100+ situps, 20-25 pullups, and below 9 min on the run. that is what you want, not very easy
thats average people on my high school swim team were swimming 4:30 to 5:20
He must have been tall which gives an unfair advantage.
im in PSTs right now and the scores on here are bullshit you need to be able to post better scores than this to join like a 9:30 swim at least 65 push-ups, 70 sit-ups, 10 pull-ups, and at least an under 10 min mile and a half. but this isnt a garuntee either so my advice, go till u puke
@werdnativ This is a test you need to pass just to make to BUDs... that's where most people quit
Those are nice standards. APFT we were authorized a rest position, at least.
@recordbreaker5 this is just to get ready for BUDs training, more than 3/4 of the people who make it to buds will leave or be kicked out because they cant fulfill the tasks needed.
its not navy seal its navy diver school.
@NightnGales Do you get to wear goggles during the swim in the PST ?
Wow, none of these are really very difficult. I guess it gets more demanding as they train up though.
NO GOGGLES!?
i think its a 25 yd or m
Lol! This is just the screening test;) Imagine the most stressful underwater training. How fun does drown-proofing sound to you? I have the utmost respect and admiration for any man that get through this training. I am so proud of being an American! God bless these men that are able to finish the extreme training needed to protect your family and my family and our wives and all loved ones.
usually sidestroke
8 min swim, 100+ pushups, 100+ situps, 20-25 pullups, and below 9 min on the run. that isn't easy
@werdnativ This is a test you need to pass just to make to BUDs... that's where most people quit
I am trying to fit the other requirements mentioned in the video, but I have one question... do they use an Olympic pool, or a standard 25 yd pool? (I am guessing an Olympic size, but you never know)
a 9:30 swim, 65 push ups, 70 situps, 10 pull ups and a 10 min run are not good scores. You want to be as successful as possible, get at least an 8 min swim, 100+ pushups, 100+ situps, 20-25 pullups, and below 9 min on the run.
this is just the test, and there are certain scores that need to be hit. Advertising for seals will tell you the scores aren't as hard as they are to encourage people to take interest but when you enlist and go to get a contract, you need incredible scores. 8 min swim, 100+ pushups, 100+ situps, 20-25 pullups, and below 9 min on the run.
sounds like a pretty easy screening compared to other schools out there.
12:45 for 1.5 miles? This is NOT a SEAL PST standards. wtf you have to do 10:30. And that won't guarantee a spot since everyone is competing to get into buds.
