/fit/,

I'll be joining the National Guard to help pay for university

I'm in decent shape, but I'm afraid of twenty weeks of basic training. What exercises should I be doing now to prepare my body?
>>
I'm 23 and aimless in life. I too would like to learn about the National Guard.
>>
>>36360508
I believe they do a lot of pushups chin ups and run a lot so you'll probably be good if you can do that a lot
>>
>>36360508
If it's anything like the British Army you will need to run a lot, especially one to five mile distances. Upper body strength is also really helpful. As a non-fitness aside, get good at waking up early and operating on very little sleep.
>>
>>36360862

I wake up at night longing to be in training now. The structured life.

Honestly, it'll probably be hell. But it'll teach me some manners and it'll put me in the shape of my life.

>>36360508
dont. get some fucking loans
>>
>>36360508
Why you not do ROTC you little cockmuncher
>>
My brother joined this year and he came back from basic and told me about it. He said they would run, but not very often. He said that they would also have them do a lot of push-ups.

It is based on a scale. If you are successful with your performance than you get rewarded.

welcome to the fucking suck, you will literally never do anything related to policework and if you do get deployed you'll just be another ground pounder kicking in doors and getting blown the fuck up

I know this because I made the same mistake you did
>>
>>36363380
also, another thing-

everyone, especially the infantry, is going to despise you for being a professional buddy fucker. Your only friends in the service will be other MP's
>>
walk, run, pull ups, burpees

crossfit in general
>>
>>36360508
Ask /k/ there's usually a military enlistment general up.

Basic ain't so bad
>>
>>36360508

Running. Cardio. Bodyweight exercises, e.g. pushups, situps, pullups. Oh, and running.

Your 1RMs will mean precisely dick. The guys that do the best in the military are the skinny lanklets that can cardio all day long.

Don't worry though, I'm an old fat guy and I made it through.
>>
>National Guard
wew lad. The designated /fit/ branch is the Marines.
Never gonna make it.
>>
>>36363555
This is the truth.

You only have 1 chance to not be a certified puss. Don't blow it being a weekend warrior.

Also you know you are 99% likely to be deployed in the middle of your university years right? Don't buy into into the recruiters shit.

>Source. I was a Marine reserves poolee for a few months before I escaped with my future still intact.

I'm not going to be an MP, bulldog.

>muhreen retards trying to make everyone think they're badasses

Yeah, no, you're bloodthirsty and violent welfare queens that would kill an American as soon as anyone else.

I wouldn't trust a marine not to shoot me in the fucking back because you're all insanely violent and have no ethics, morals or intelligence whatsoever.

>army
>national gaurd
>airforce
Everyone in these branches are fat pieces of shit. Navy too unless you're an HM or CB
>>
>>36364590
Do you really have to hate generalize breh?
>>
>>36360508

Run, burpees, pushups

Condition yourself to perform on a sleep deficit and you'll be fine.

TOPPEST OF FUCKING KEKS. THAT'S FUCKING EASY MODE.

>>36360508
Prepare to embrace the suck. You're going to hate it and you're going to love it. In the end, you're going to hate it. But you'll talk about it as if you loved it.
