Vance joined active Navy SEALs for a one-time, 90-minute physical training (PT) session at Naval Amphibious Base Coronado in California—the home of SEAL training.
This was not part of any official SEAL candidate program.
The session included classic SEAL-style conditioning drills, such as:
- Running on sand/beach
- Rope and net climbing (including obstacle courses)
- Log-carrying exercises (team log PT)
- Rowing in small boats
Vance shared his experience on X noting, “Just finished PT with the Navy SEALs for 90 minutes (I’ll post some photos when I get them).”
“They took it easy on me and I still feel like I got hit by a freight train.”
“So grateful to all of our warriors who keep us safe and keep the highest standards anywhere in the world!”

He shared photos from the workout with the faces of the service members blurred for safety.
Vance took part in rope and net climbing as part of an obstacle course.
Vance is a veteran of the U.S. Marine Corps and served in the Iraq War. He enlisted in 2003 and deployed to Iraq in 2005 with the 2nd Marine Aircraft Wing.
Later in the day, Vance took a moment to poke fun at himself by photoshopping a meme of himseld into one of the photos.
