Pace: Moderate, conversational
** This is not a max rounds effort. Keep a steady pace.
Again, we use this type of workout to separate various timed intense sessions (prevent mental and physical burn out) and for active rest after a strength session.
As always our Stamina Goals are
1) Recovery
2) Active Rest from intense and demanding training
3) Metabolism Boost
4) Fat-Burning Work
5) Long Slow Distance Training for those tendons, ligaments, and stabilizing muscle that are hard to hit in a gym environment.

Dave,
I noticed the training is back to the old format and I welcome it even though it continues to kick my butt. Why the change back...just wondering? Thanks again for the training and exercise resources.

A,
After the transition with Military Athletes, I experimented with changing up the training. I had people contact me asking for more basic, beginner style training, so I tried making it more general for those who follow the site. I still received feedback from people saying the workouts were too hard and asking if I could develop easier ones. This was even after the new transition of training, so it got me thinking that those types of people, more than likely, will not follow anything you put in front of them regardless of what it is. I figure if someone is dedicated and committed they will do what they can and modify what they need to. I don't want to "dumb down" the training for people that realistically won't even follow it consistently. I'd rather provide the training that I perform myself and that I know is followed by many people. This training is not for everyone. It is intense and requires hard work and consistency, but the results are awesome. There are plenty of other sites out there that provide more basic stuff. Whatever your level is, find a program you like and stick with it. Consistency and hard work have no substitution.

Here is an email I recieved with a question I get frequently:
Sir,
I am currently in the Navy. I weigh 230lbs I am trying to trim down to 200 lean I have increased my cardio but the weight is not coming off, I have been doing two workouts a day for a little over a month. My workouts consist of Mon, Weds, Fri I do command PT which is about 45 mins and consists of 2 miles broken up into two lap intervals with push ups, flutter kicks, and crunches. On Tues, Thurs I swim in the morning, I am up to 1200 meters. I take the weekends off. For lunch I do another two miles of interval training with 3 min rounds in between. I maintain a vegetarian diet, which does consist of a lot of soy. I do eat some junk don't get me wrong we have to treat oursleves, but I don't eat fast food. I don't eat breakfast, for lunch I eat light and then a good dinner.
Thank your for your time

D,
Is it easy?? Not at first, but it does work. As for training, I would recommend our training sessions. You may have to modify them a bit at first, but do what you can and continue to push yourself. If you are trying to truly lose weight, you have to be VERY serious with your diet (not just here and there) and keep up your training...not only just cardio. However, when you are doing cardio, adding long slow distance training is very affective when it comes to weight loss. Long slow distance for 45-60 minutes generally jump starts your metabolism and burns fat. This is part of the reason we include it in our training.

D,
I rarely deal with athletes that have weight loss as their main training objective. I am not a nutritionist or dietitian, but would recommend you do some research on affective weight loss strategies. When you do such research, you will find that there are some common requirements:
- NEVER skip breakfast!
- Eat smaller meals every 2.5-3.0 hours
- Ensure every meal has a quality protein source (nothing fried)
- Ensure at least every other meal has vegetables
- Cut out all Flour and sugar ( no bread, pasta, candy, soda, juice, etc...)
- Do not drink anything with calories (no beer, soda, juice, sports drinks, etc...)
WHAT ABOUT NUTRITION?
We have a somewhat contrarian view of proper nutrition. First, we find the goal of proper nutrition can and is used as an excuse not to train hard. There are many people with great diets who are severely deconditioned. Likewise, there are many people who have terrible diets, but are very fit.
We do believe that a bad diet will limit and hinder your fitness. Eat well, train hard, get plenty of sleep, and you'll make great gains.
Second, proper nutrition is intuitive, it isn't rocket science. You know when you're eating junk.
Third, we believe strict, onerous diets are not sustainable over the long run. And we're in it for the long run.
Finally, "event" nutrition is different from daily nutrition. If you have a long run, big climb, or tactical mission ahead, carbo load or you'll likely bonk.
Here's our Nutritional Guideline:
6 Days a Week: Eat lean meat, vegetables, fruit, nuts, seeds, and drink water. Don't eat carbs (bread, spuds, rice) or sugar.
1 Day a Week: Cheat like a mother! Beer, pizza, ice cream - you name it!
These are just simple guidelines that may point you in the right direction knowing very little about you and your situation.
