Gym and gaming helps pass time

Burpees and running have been helping me keep my mind off it. It makes me feel better also that they have so many boards this year. So if we need to reapply you’re not waiting a year to submit another packet.

 

[bendaggs]

Does anyone know for the initial strength test what the minimum is? Is it good low? I’m currently shooting for excellent low. I’ve also heard that peoples PRT scores go down while they’re at OCS. Is this true?

Isnt it Satisfatory Med? Though I'm aiming to arrive there at Excellent Low at least. I had a shoulder injury for a year and finally its going away so I'm only able to do 55 push ups. And my running has been slow lately too.

I run every day and am still slow; it's been the bane of my existence.

Long slow runs 3 times a week and 30/60 second sprints twice a week would tremendously improve your run time.

It’s Good Low now

I thought that you needed a Satisfactory Medium with the initial PRT and a Good Low for a later PRT

Same here. Was on the crew team in college and running was easy as walking. Got into power lifting for a while and neglected cardio and now am regretting that.

Wow, I thought I was the only one lol. Definitely neglected cardio for a few years during my powerlifting career. About 6 months ago I switched to CrossFit.
