  • The first week at Navy ODS was all about making mistakes, keeping calm, and working as a team. I have been a college professor since 2005 (starting my career at Sam Houston State University) and I had to transition from an environment where you succeed alone (a university) to an environment where you succeed as a team (the military).
    When I finished ODS and transitioned back to campus, I realized it was a harder transition than I anticipated. I was focused on the success of the team instead of individual faculty members, but that is another video...
    Enjoy Week One!
    Please let me know if you have any questions. I am happy to help!

    Hello Dr. Edwards, I salute you with very proud eyes for your outstanding work and performance you did in ODS! Also, it is very much appreciated your insight regarding this important life changing military training. I am about to go on May 4th. I am a nurse and I will be joining the US Navy.
    I would like to know if you still happen to have that laminated paper you created with all the important knowledge to memorize? I'd truly appreciate if you could please share with me.

    Do you go to medical and do a weigh in? I'm going in October and was supposed to lose 15lbs but I gained muscle instead 😢 so I'm freaking out

      @@catcat3608 Sure! The planks have been great. To prepare for ODS, I did planks every day and I added on a few additional seconds every day. Plus, I connect my workout (especially those exercises I do not like to do) to my “why”. My “why” is my family. I have a BIG family (over 34 first cousins on my mom and dad’s side) and I try to name all of them (plus my aunts and uncles). Connect your workout to your why! :) 🏋🏾‍♂️🏃🏾‍♂️
