I started Army ROTC this week, which includes Physical Training.

 

I was 201lbs without clothes on before PT started.

 

We had PT three times this week for an hour and a half.

 

I did cardeo exercises on the off-days when we didn't have PT for roughly an hour and a half.

 

Since PT started, I have only eaten one decent meal per day.

 

Now, I am approx 184lbs and my body feels like its been put through the washer's mangle.

 

Hooah!

Good Job!!

 

What's your target weight (or are you just trying to survive training)?

 

 

What kind of PT are you doing for 90 minutes?

 

 

I'm trying to get down enough so I can pass the PT weight test which, since I'm a noob in rotc, I don't know what weight that is yet.

 

As far as PT goes this week we had different activities each day.

 

Typically we do four different activities each day and most of these were combined into team relays such as team sprint relays and team lunge relays.

 

This week I've done team stretcher hauls and lifts, bear crawls, crab walks, wheelbarrels, lunges, sprints, dual 5 gallon jug sprints (about 40lbs each), pushups, situps and tarp dragging. The MS4's (fourth year enlisted cadets) are in charge of PT right now and they like to mix it up alot between cardeo and strength building exercises.
