Looks OK to me. Doesn't offer much progression but you can easily add on once you get more fit. I would replace kick board work with finning but that I hate kick boards.

It seems like a great Cal workout, my only concern would be hitting the pool only twice a week and only running 3 times a week; and perhaps thats what Guard MC was kind of saying. Alot of the Workouts I have seen state: " running 5 days a week, and swimming 3-5 days a week. When I read about selection school and the pipeline it would seem that on most days that ur in the pool and on the track, just something to consider I guess. You have a good recruiter there though, I got nothing from mine.

Where are you located at? I am from West Virginia and my recruiter gave me the same exact workout. I have been having trouble deciding whether to do this one, Guard's, or play around and create my own hardcore one.

Try Guards workout. I have progressed alot in just two weeks. Its only 8 wks long. It will get you into the shape you need to be to tackle a more significant hardcore workout. It works and it works fast.

I'm pretty sure the Guard's workout is 10 weeks long. Oh, and since Guard is commenting, if I only have 3 weeks till I take the PAST, should I just start at week 8?

Start wherever your max ability lets you. You could be at week 4 for the swimming, week 8 on the runs and past week 10 on the cals. Look at the schedule and pick a place to start for each event or just pick a day/week and start there.
Have fun with it. The program is designed to give you a schedule but also to devise your own.
