Joining Military, Need Help... Out of Shape.

[Teufel_Hunden]

Whatever branch you join will get you into whatever shape you need to be in for that specific branch. If you'd like to 'get ready' just have a regiment of running, push ups and sit ups and practice a couple of times a week, and eat less than you are now too.

It's easy, don't think too much about it. Get steroids off your mind, trust me you don't want or need to do a cycle before joining. Have the right mindset and the physical part will take care of itself.

Some good advice! One thing though, you don't necessarily want to eat less. You should eat many small meals a day, 5-6 meals a day. Just make sure you are eating the right foods. I apologize if I was one of the so-called harsh guys to comment here, but you need to put in hard work before you do anything including steroids. The best advice I can give to you is to run 3-4 days a week, do some low intensity cardio at the gym (30-45 min). Low intensity will help burn fat, but not too much muscle. I see a lot of guys just killing it on the treadmill but then they wonder why they never gain any muscle. Do your push ups and sit ups, I'd say if you can do 50 push ups without stopping and 100 crunches in 2-3 min then you will be well on your way along with a clean diet and the running.

hunden: No worries. thanks for the advice. I am aiming to meet all the PT requirements beforehand. I got 6 months to shed 30lbs, and do that.
You guys here in this forum are experts and you are all at a real advanced level, we are talking about two different levels/interests.

Lots of changes are around the bend in the military, but PT stuff isn't one of them I think.
