No. This isn't a bodybuilding competition. They are built for stamina, tactics and independent thinking. That's what leads to special forces success. They won't be showing off their bodies or lifting weights during an operation.

Muscular strength is also a very important part of it --- and if you look at most spec ops units worldwide, they tend to be better built. This is something I also noted in Wajahat S Khan's piece on Zarrar, one of our Tier 1 CT units. The guys definitely need to have a bit more muscle mass, and also cover their faces with balaclavas as is the norm with Tier 1 units!!!

Image does not win wars. Remember US with all its equipment lost to skinny fighters i.e. the Viet Cong wearing flip flops made from old tires and pajamas and the Russians lost to the Mujahideen living on a few pieces of bread and water for weeks. Your image of a good fighter is from the West and Hollywood movies. The West has lost the last two wars its started and is now sinking in the same quagmire it created, with waves on refugees washing up to its shores. Equipment especially at the personal level has very little to winning wars.

They dont give expensive protein supplements to the operators. Hence the less muscle mass.

More muscle mass = Add value to shock and awe. When they suddenly comes upon the guy, would opponent fear a muscular man or a skinny guy ? Look at the build, workouts and supplements of Delta and Navy Seals of Americans.

@Manticore might know about that as he used to do gym.
 
If an athlete weights 200 pounds, then he takes around 200 grams of protein / days. [ 2xbody wt in kg]

If he plans to lose or gain weight, then he can put target wt in above formula instead of existing wt

Total calories are then calculated from tdee calculator or simply , body wt in poundsx15= calories needed to maintain existing body

If he plans to lose or gain weight, then he can add or reduce 500 calories from above equation result

To reach 200 gm of protein, athletes might need 2 scoops of whey as a supplement.

General 200pound gym goer will take around 150 gm protein/day [ 1.5xbody wt in kg]

Cost of protein decreases drastically if bought in bulk


what was your question?

Money to buy 2scoops protein / soldier?
diet, training and equipment cost per solider to make him equivalent to tier 1 special forces like seal team six
as @Bratva was saying that you can't have a good special force without proper build and some member above him was saying that you need proper equipment. we some what lack in both departments.so i was curious how much will it cost for a nation like Pakistan to equip our best teams (not the whole ssg) to the standard of seals team six
