PRE-BOOT CAMP EXERCISES//2 billion people died during ww2, 130 million from usa
Ever warmed up with 100 pushups before? This is a great way to get the body started in just 5 minutes!
Repeat 3 times: - Sit ups - 1:00 - (Rest one minute) - Pushups 50 straight non-stop
When it come to sit ups - you can pace yourself and score higher - too many times people start off too fast and burn out within the first minute. Try to set your pace at 20 reps in 30 seconds which will equal 80 in 2:00. This is 15 reps above the minimum standard.
Super Set for pushups/sit ups
Repeat 2-3 times in 2:30 each set: - Pushups - 10 - Crunches - 20 - Wide pushups- 10 - Reverse crunches - 20 - Close Pushups - 10 - Double crunches - 20
The above superset is a great way to build a foundation in respect to adding pushups to your PFT score. Mixing in maximum rep sets is another great way to increase your scores.
- Stretch 5:00 - Run 1-2 miles
If you REALLY need help on running, it is recommended to use the 2 mile option for 2 months before picking up the mileage to 3 miles track workout as seen on the "Interval Training for the PFT Run" article.

Wow that\'s a crazy workout. I can\'t even do 1 push up, and I can only walk a mile and a half. You go, girl!
And those stats are so depressing! War really is Hell.
yeah, if i can ever do it, lets see what happens! lol.
i\'m reading:
Dear Senator: A Memoir by the Daughter of Strom Thurmond (2005), written with William Stadiem. It explored her sense of dislocation based on her mixed heritage, as well as going to college in the segregated South after having grown up in Pennsylvania. It was nominated for both a National Book Award and a Pulitzer Prize.
Its excellent. good idea having blacks join daughters of the confederacy, i never thought of that at all. put the balance back in there. be real. very good.
I\'m tired just reading about that workout! Sheesh! *HUGS*
