routine for basic....

[jay402]

I am going to Basic next summer for the Marine Corp, and the PFT test requires a 3 mile run, pushups, pullups, situps, and dips.
I was wandering if anyone here has tips on improving one's pullups and run. I want to get a jump on it because this is to be an Officer and my results will effect me. Thanks

just do them, especially running. and start weight training, you should be able to complete the requirements next summer if u train til then.

Lots and lots of running. My friend's done basic...twice. Once for a military institute out west, and then again for West Point. He basically summed up everything by saying "You run EVERYWHERE, and they scream at you." Have fun.
