I'm trying to join the Marines but I can't do more than 5 pull ups. I can run 3 miles in 30 minutes easily but crunches are a pain. Is there anyway to get 20 pullups in a month before I go to MEPS (Military Enterance Processing Station)? I can do 50 pushups in 2 minutes but pull ups are a little too extreme.

pick related I'm 6 feet tall and 180lbs

Are you retarded? Why do you need to be at 20 pull-ups by MEPS? I'm pretty sure five is enough even to make it through boot camp.

Oh wait right Marine wannabe, of course he's retarded. Also if you think the Corps isn't full of spics and blacks you're dead wrong

Do a pyramind work out, that's what helped me when I was trying to enlist.

Buy a pull up bar for your door frame and do a max set every time you walk by.

3 times a day do something like 1 pull up, 5 push ups, 2 pull ups, 10 push ups, etc, and then go back down. Helped me out quite a bit

also this.

My office made me do 3, meps is like 2 or something unless they changed it with the new PFT/CFT standards.

20 is good to strive for though.

20 is considered a perfect score on the PFT.

>>38585958
You realize a 30 minute 3-mile is no where close to qualification score for the Marines right?

>>38586300
I'm in the middle of doing apps for MC OCS but I'm not sure if I actually want to go through with it. I got 18 pull ups and a 21:13 on the 3-miler. (I'm 6' at 200 lbs.) At my recruitment office we do the old test, so no push ups, but my PR is 96. OP prly just needs to just g a little more and buy a pull ups bar.

Youre a skinnyfat weak shit, your run times are super shit, and the marines is literally all nonwhites.
Have fun mopping floors for a few years feggit.

do pyramids

set of 1, rest, set of 2, rest set of 3, keep going up one until you cant.

then go down 1 from your maximum. Also do real pullups, palm forward, not chinups

If you follow this, you will make progress. If you dont, you dont have a fucking excuse, dont fucking ask again

Just join the army instead. They will let you in on what you can already do :^)
