PRT is still dumb but at least one cadre here is willing to do something besides AGR runs or pushups sit up improvement. Today we did last man ups and it was actually kind of fun. I was that rear end in a top hat who kept going "HOOAH SERGEANT MAJOR/MAM RACE YOU!". They can't resist and I definitely annoyed the poo poo out of them. It's the small things when you're in TRADOC guys. At least the gym here is nice, and has plenty of eye candy to.

Casimir Radon posted:Minimalism, crossfit, NO-XPLODE.... I have the hardest time finding people to work out with. They either never actually want go to the gym or insist on doing some crazy poo poo like crossfit no wait starting strength no wait cardio every day for two hours bro let's just do preacher curls squats are dumb weights make you fat. Shut the gently caress up and just spot for me.

Planet fitness tried this but instead yells at you if you grunt or drop weights or clink weights.

Grampybone posted:How on earth are you guys the "only" people you know that apparently work out "correctly"? I'm not saying I workout better than everyone else, obviously not because there are a lot of people with a worse case of swoleosis than me, (A LOT) but I'd rather workout with someone cool who I can bullshit with. Pretty much all of my friends are lazy and don't workout, work at target like 22 hours a day, or just aren't fun to workout with. Squats make your butt big, all I do is run 12 miles a day, LETS JUST DO PREACHER CURLS! I've found a few decent people to work with, but it's annoying when every other day peoples workout philosophy changes and they want to do something completely different. So what I've been doing is just hey broing people I see in the gym doing exercises I wanna do. Some are cool, some dudes scream real loud dead lifting like 180, and some stare at my rear end. Basically this is the internet its for complaining!!!

Crazy Mike posted:Ok, I'm tired of being too fat for the army. I've been on a diet for the past three weeks coming ever so close to passing tape. (225 lbs, 16.5" neck, 40.5" waist, need 22.5 difference) Running at a constant speed never worked for me when it came to training for the run. Try HIIT. It's basically walk or jog for about two minutes and SPRINT, like balls the wall dogs are chasing you RUN FOR YOU LIFE SPRINT, for a minute. Your diet is most important, don't cheat, eat good stuff, cut out sugar etc etc etc. Losing weight helps a ton, but cardio is a bitch. Take a week off and you'll hurt bad.

Crazy Mike posted:60/120 intervals worked a lot for me before, that's pretty much my APFT run style that got me to 15'30". Now I'm so weak I can't maintain 6 minute long sprints. I'm planning on getting back to that once I've slimmed down a significant amount. Are you aiming for 300? I haven't maxed since I was 19 and my next APFT isn't for a year. But gently caress it I can test myself. I guess so. Also I don't change pace on my run until the end when I start running like a mad man. Maybe that can work for you? Running was always mental to me.

xwonderboyx posted:I'm too fat for pullups It's ok I'm too skinny and weak. You have an easier road than me. So my girlfriends uncle lives up the street from me and has a gym in his basement. Sweet I think, he has benches, a squat rack, treadmill and a ton of weights. The ceiling is eight feet high. I'm 6'3". gently caress, it's free and I'll use it for a while, beside my GF there are no resolution losers there. Also I haven't done a THING for nearly a month. I'm five pounds heavier, but I think I'm 15% fat and 75% bone. Fuuuuck....

My NG MI unit is trying to convince people to do a 28 mile March for the fallen. 28 miles. 35Lb ruck. NG. MI. Also they said I have to and I said gently caress off. I'm not driving four hours so I can march for 8.

Yeah but the CSM doesn't see that. He wants max participation, and at AT everyone is gonna shoot guns and MI is useless etc etc. Of course my company is nothing but terribly smug MI stereotypes... And psydude not yet but very soon.

Martello posted:I had an APFT this morning, but the whole time I was envisioning sexual intercourse to confuse my muscles. I've always heard a million different things about the pros and cons of taking whatever. Take Tylenol it'll thin your blood, chug a monster it'll give you energy, caffeine pills, pre workout, NOS etc etc. Most of the time people just puke on the run. Or placebo effect their way to single digit more points. If it weren't for the run I'd assume whatever helps you in the gym would help on an APFT.

Martello posted:Yeah but I've had this injury for over a year and so far I haven't hurt it any worse. I'm being pretty careful with it. The doctor told me the surgery doesn't have a 100% recovery chance anyway, and she said I could keep doing what I'm doing as long as I don't go overboard with weight and if it hurts, stop doing it. Get your shoulder fixed you goon you have free healthcare.

CU has an option that allows you to defer admission for up to 5 years should you decide to pursue military service. That way, should I mess up somewhere along the way, I've always got a great school to fall back on. Why the gently caress would you rather do more army than go to an ivy league school?!

Bogarts posted:I was running today and about 100 meters in I got a really sharp pain in a very small area on my shin. Felt kind of like someone putting a cigarette out on it. I thought a bee stung me or something but there was no mark or anything and it stopped immediately so I started running again and it started happening again with less and less distance between when I would feel the pain. I quit pretty early and came home and I'm going to go to the doc when I can but has anyone else had anything like this? Theres no swelling or anything that I can see and it feels fine as long as I don't run. Just a guess but it sounds like a pretty bad stress fracture.
