Not bad anon.
Though im aussie so i really don't know the standards
I tried the SASR 20 km hike over 8 hours
Got 12km a day down to 1hour and 50 min
But didn't have the 60 kg on me back.
I did this for 4 months straight, no days off .
I'm a fat cunt that smokes like a volcano.
For me i was impressed.
Might take it up again.

>>35130284
>How fucked am I?
Very. Get it down to at least a 21 minute 3 mile.

>>35130284
You're alright for a start, just keep on improving your and try to make the 3 mile mark around 26 minutes.
You'll also have to do pull-ups and curl-ups.

>>35130284
what the fuck? I haven't trained in like 2 years and im fat as fuck now, and my 1 mile is still like 7:25.
you better start working out you pussy ass fagots.

>>35130938
The infantry standard is 10minutes/km @40kg not including the water you intend to drink...

>>35130284
That's not terrible. About where I was at when I started. Just keep running 3 miles at a time and don't be afraid to max out while you do it. Keep it up like that and a 10 minute 1.5 will come to feel like nothing.

Your goals.

>>35130981
Rifleman here, get just under 10mins for 1.5mile so take that as you will

>>35130979
I might give that a shot.
I only brought a 500ml bottle with me for my power walks.
I was 100kg at the time, by the end i was 90kg.

>>35130993
>225 is now a first class PFT
Sweet Jesus...even my fat ass can do that without breaking a sweat.

>>35130284
Can you:
1. Recognize alphabets
2. Count to two hands
3. Stand still in a general area for 1 minute
4. Drink water without spilling more than 33% of the volume
5. Shove food into an orifice

If you ticked at least 2 of the above, congratulations, you can be a Marine!

Did any of you do cross country? I played football in high school, but we never did more than mile runs.

Good work Anon. I've been out for years but still go for a stomp every now and then. Every time I buy some larp shit to update my gear I do a BFA.

>>35131145
Do 30/60's for your target distance. Alternate with 70% max speed. So if running m/w/f do a continuous alternation to avoid stagnation.

>>35130284
Do 60:120s (60 seconds of running, 120 second of jogging) then build to 30:90s

The will improve your speed

>>35131196
Nice bro
Yeah i packed on kg again.
This thread made me want to start again

>>35131202
>>35131221
Thanks for the advice. I hate looking at my watch while I run though.

>>35130284
Dude thats a failing score. Get down to 20mins its not that hard. Also pullups are important as all fuck, especially in boot camp. Good luck bro

>>35131565
I only started training 2 months ago. How long should it take?

>>35130284
Mine sucks too man. I'm built like a brick shithouse and I'm slow as shit. My mile and a half run time was 17:58 which sucks balls. I'm working on it though. Just gotta push yourself harder and faster every time you run.

>>35131315
Just count in your head boss. If you have those cheap timex walmart watches I want to say that they resetting counters. if their are telephone poles that are in a reasonable distance of each other use those in the timers place.

>>35131037
they changed the maximums to be harder last year.

>>35130284

Those are pretty close to my times when I was in DEP for the Marines. You'll pass the IST to ship out, and once you're in basic don't even worry about your run times unless you're a complete lardass. You run so much from the time you get there to the time it actually matters that it'll be impossible for your running to not vastly improve.

>>35131753
Seconded, I want to know to.
But I want to be fit enough to go RASP if at all possible.

>>35130284
>13:45 1 mile

You would fail the IST. So basically if you shipped off to boot camp, you'd be classified as a father body. They will put you in what's called Fat Body platoon. They will PT you until you're down to a 11 minute 1 mile.

So as a Marine, we already have the longest boot camp. Anytime spent in fat boy platoon isn't considered training. You'll be there because you're considered unfit for training. So instead of 3 months, you're looking at 4 months or so.

You need to get your floppy ass off 4chan and go running. It's real life boy, not the memes your fat ass ate up.

>>35132008
You remember wrong you lard ass pog. It's a 1.5 mile run that needs to be done in 13:30.

So shut your fucking mouth and stop giving bad advise.

>>35133651
13:15 1.5 miles.

>>35133651
13:45* 1.5 miles

>>35133899
I think it's 1.5 in 13:30. See >>35133672 I looked it up to refresh my memory.

Either way, OP's fat ass isn't where it needs to be.

>the you are the only one who really uses the landmine at the gym
>lumberjack squats and one arm presses for days

Also if you don't extend 4pl8 you are not gonna make it

My 1.5 mile was borderline when I shipped to bootcamp. When I did the beginning minimum standards test, there was a DI running at the back who we were told would run the course in exactly 13:30, so my fat ass just stayed in front of him.
And as for your 3 mile for the final pft? Don't worry about that, you'll have been doing plenty of running at that point. I think mine was 22:15 or something like that. Not great, but Mike's ahead of where I started.
Pull ups is where you'll make your money. Hands forward then reverse grip. Back then bicep, you'll squeeze a few more out.

>>35130284
To be honest mate thats pretty bad, even the fattest of fucks over here (bongland) going for REME or int corps get under that 1.5 mile time, and infantry you need to be getting under 10:30 to be considered even halfway fit.

Best advice I can give is to include a session of 800m repeats, a 1.5 mile run best effort and a 5k per week, with a rest day in between where you do press ups, sit ups and pull ups. My last PFA I did a mile and a half with a pulled groin in 11:27, and im 5'10 85kg so theres not really an excuse, just get out and run more. I do a half mile in 2:20, a 1.5 miler in 8:31 and a 5k in about 20 minutes and im pretty much bang average in terms of fitness in my unit. The military is one of those jobs where the fitter you are, the exponentially easier it will be for you.

Use to work out daily. With twin newborns, working a lot of extra hours at work. I rather sit on my ass, drink a beer, play some games when I got free time.

I haven't even got to shoot Gertruth yet, I just fonished building her (Named my AR, Gertruth. )

>>35130284
I'm a 37 year old reservist and laughing at you.
