Certified instructor description: Three complete workouts - the actual moves used to motivate and train U.S. Navy commandos (right down to the “pain, oh beautiful pain ...” attitude). Taught boot camp-style, they’re all designed for rapid results. “Stamina” is a challenging blend of kickbox aerobics and traditional calisthenics alternated with short toning intervals. “Strength” uses classic routines to maximize results with supersets, drop sets and pyramid training (alternating muscle groups and varying their intensity/reps). “Iso” features three, compact body-part-focused sequences: abs, upper body and lower body (plus a short back-and-biceps chin-up bar routine). No equipment required; you use your own weight for resistance. Two segments use a chin-up bar or body bar. Filmed on the beach. Includes a small workout explanation booklet -- "The Navy Seal Training Camp Pocket Manual." ©1999.

Navy SEAL Training

Very Effective Military Calisthenics
I used this series in preperation for U.S. Army airborne school combined with a three mile run every other day after workout and I was officer honor graduate at 41 years old. Some distracting noise in background with wind and another person in background making off screen comments. The best of the authentic military boot camp style videos that I have used. - posted by Duane on 4/24/2009

Fantastic Workout
After a few weeks of using the Navy Seal workout, I could finally see some muscle definitions on my arms and abs. This workout is tough, but very effective. Scott is very straight forward and easy to follow. If you want a down to earth workout, with excellent result, then this is it. Warning: On the first week, you will feel an agonizing muscle pain on your chest, arms, and abs. This workout is great! Chris in CA. - posted by Chris on 11/23/2006
Always a favorite
I love this workout. Only the chin-ups require more than just a mat and, honestly, after doing it a few times I seriously contemplated having a real chin-up bar installed in a doorway. This is a no frills, straight forward strength and stamina builder. I feel strong and tough after doing this video. RIP Scott. - posted by Joanne124 on 4/7/2005
Good, tough calisthenics
If you have little or no equipment and want a tough workout for your legs, abs and arms, this is a good video. Shot on the beach, demonstrates beginner, int. and advanced levels, though I doubt any but the SERIOUSLY tough) could do the advanced level. Beginner is doable if you are in very good shape, (a strong back is also important for nearly all these exercises) and there is plenty to work up to. Small section at end demonstrates work on pull-up bars, but alternative exercises to work same muscle groups are shown using light weights (the only equipment used total). A full hour of sit ups, squats and other leg work and tough, tough push-up work, demonstrating genuine Navy Seal workout technique. Simple but effective variations for each muscle group's exercises. - posted by Nina on 3/26/2001
Reading a Time Graph
X
Each workout shows a time graph of the workout sequence, from beginning to end. For example, this workout starts with a 10-minute warm-up and ends with a 10-minute stretch. In between, you'll do aerobics, then toning, then a cooldown.

Segments that include both aerobics & toning
Some workouts combine aerobics and toning. If the aerobics and toning are done at the same time, you'll see a "blended" graph. If the aerobics and toning are done in short, alternating intervals, you'll see an "interval" graph.
sample time graph
Level
X
Beginner: Just starting out, very overweight or haven't exercised in over six months.

Intermediate: Active in sports, dance or any regular exercise (2 to 3 times per week).

Advanced: Very active in sports or consistently work out four or more times per week.

Aerobics impact
X
Lower Impact: Both feet never leave the ground at the same time. This minimizes stress on your knees.

Higher Impact: Includes movements like jumps, hops and skips. Very high-impact is called plyometrics.

Mixed Impact: This alternates or combines the above styles.

Aerobics choreography
X
Basic: The easiest to follow. It ranges from simple walking-style marches to sports and athletic movements.

Complex: More intricate combinations and patterns. They're ideal for people who like to dance.

Moderate: More interesting than Basic, less dancy than Complex.

Toning emphasis
X
Upper body: Arms, chest and back.

Lower Body: Legs, thighs, hips and buttocks.

Abs: Abdominals (stomach), core and sometimes lower back.

Total body: Tones all three of the above muscle groups.

Floor aerobics & toning
X
Definition: Includes two workout activities. The aerobics segments are fast-paced standing movements like marching, dancing and jumping. These segments require no equipment. The toning sections are slow, controlled movements working against a resistance. These may include Pilates and weight training.

Benefits: The combination of both activities provides a balanced workout. The aerobics burns calories, strengthens your heart and increases stamina. The toning builds lean muscles, increases your metabolism and makes everyday activities easier.
