To start I would ensure that you are a superb swimmer.
Also I would ensure that you are in superb physical condition.
Thats to start.
There are some things that you have to possess that really cannot be taught. For one thing most individuals that are SEALS never quit, period. No matter how difficult the task might seem that just seems to give them a hardon because they want to conquer it.
I have never met someone who actually was/is a Navy SEAL that wasnt extremely impressive in general. They are good at almost everything they do, and if they arent good at it they will learn how to be good. This is true for most people who are in special forces honestly.
I had a friend who was really good at table hockey, and another friend who was a Force Recon Marine we were all buddies that hung out together when I was in the hospital at Balboa Naval Medical center. My buddy that was good at table hockey used to beat all of us. My other buddy who was a Force Recon Marine got beat, and then practiced every day for hours at table hockey just so he could win against my other friend.
Thats just the way those people are.
If your in good shape and like what I described then you just might make it through BUDS, however most people dont honestly.

Do a Google search on Navy Seals. You will be shocked at what the MINIMUM requirements are physically. I suggest 2 hours a day in long distance swimming. You need great upper body strength and a mental attitude that you will survive no matter what.

Exactly 20% more than you have to give !!
When you get it all out there-- every single dime's worth of it -- and find that other 20% from God only knows where -- then is when you make it through !! Not a second sooner !!
Absolutely everything you can do to prep yourself for the pyshical abuse you're going to take -- and another thing -- get ready to freeze solid !!
If you're ready to die to become a Seal -- you just might make it -- otherwise --opt for something easier-- like the Rangers !!!
