I have read Get Selected!, SF/Ranger workout by Stew Smith, hired a personal trainer with much USMC infantry (Army, much less SF, is hard to find in San Diego) experience for general weight training, and PT twice a day, 5-6 days/week.

I am in the same boat as far as doing unfulfilling private sector work and being a college grad. Good luck to you - I will be signing an 18X contract in the next two weeks as an old man at 28 as well.
From all the researching and reading I have done on SF, it amazes me how diverse the SF crowd is. Working professionals, students with college degrees, prior service military guys, etc. I am extremely encouraged by the stories of a lot of the SF soldiers out there, and I can't wait to get in the mix!
