This is depressing
on: December 09, 2011, 03:42:44 AM
So I was searching for other stuff and came across this, USMC fitness test. I wondered how I would do so I did it according to their criteria.

I only got 50. :cry: This sucks, I'm not even 30 (well close), and I got a big fat F on my fitness. Oh well, time to dust off the weights, some new goal to work on I suppose.

It might be worse than you think.   When my son joined the Army he could pass the PT test on his own.  But when he showed up at Ft. Knox for training the disallowed about a third of his push ups and sit ups because his form was not good enough.    Imagine banging out all of the pushups and you relax, huffing and puffing with burning muscles and the sergeant says "you're not done yet".

Know how you feel dude, 10 years ago when I was in the military I did 17 hang-ups, 80 crunches under 1 minute, 60 push -ups and ran 3 km at 12 minutes, and this was me on 20 cigarets a day habit and never worked out a day in my life. Now I am overweight and can't even do one hang-up.

God I have to get back in shape.......

If I look at the chart at the bottom I'm not doing too bad, 2nd class. But I'm hoping to get at least 90 on all three individual categories, someday, lol.
