Poolee PT before Bootcamp

[Dveres95]

Currently we are doing 2-3 PT sessions a week with our Recruiter, along with 1-2 extra days where the Poolee's at my recruiter station meet at a park without our recruiter for PT. I was just wondering how much PT the rest of the Poolee's are doing each week.

Post your days and PT:

4-5 days a week
1.5-3 miles each day
pyramid set of pull ups 1-6
anywhere from 20-40 mins of ab workout and push ups

[lake9]

every Tuesday.

[devin0116]

Tuesday and Thursday 5:00 p.m. - 6:00 p.m.

1-3 miles (depends on whos running it and how they feel.)
-Periodic stops with 4 count push ups/squats/core exercises.
-If we are real lucky we get to do stuff like buddy carries, buddy drags, low crawls.

They're are always exceptions to this but I would say this is the average. They like to mix up who runs it, and they run it how they like to. Sgt. Medina likes to run, a lot. Sgt. Ayotte enjoys core a lot... it all depends really.

[PARKER93]

We only get to PT with the recruiters on thursdays. But I PT everyday at the office and sometimes other poolees decide to participate. The thursday workouts vary, but my workouts are on a set schedule.

Wish our recruiters did something like this..we just have pool functions every second Saturday. Although I do work out on my own..it'd be nice to PT with others.

[BurkeWorld]

The RS is always open, but every Saturday we have the Poolee PT sessions. Every 2 weeks is the IST. Sometimes we do something fun like CFT or PFT, other times we get our butts kicked with Rock Running or being pitted for about 30 minutes straight.

[Vise]

Every thursday.

[soon2bMarine10]

We PT every monday and Wednesday. I also PT everyday by myself and i have a pull up bar in my nack yard!!

[pattheesmkid]

Our recruiting station holds PT every wednesday night to those who can make it.It's not mandatory. The workouts usually vary.

The second saturday of every month we have POOLEE functiions which are manditory. They run an IST and then after we have the opportunity to participate in something the recruiters usually set up for us. Lately we've been doing MMA type stuff at this combat fitness place. Its fun and also a great workout.

I try to work out as much as possible after school at our gym.

[sdkmcqueen]

Every Wednesday at the recruiters. Mon-Fri individual PT.

[Jwjchsr]

My fellow poolee and I pt with our recruiters every Monday, Wednesday and Friday down at the RSS Honolulu at 5 pm. We have about 5 to 15 poolee and guests come in on average to pt, at most we have 21.

When we come to the office, before we even talk to our recruiter and the boss, we have maxed out two sets of pull ups. When pt starts we usually run 1 mile to warm up then afterward, we generally do circuit training, intervals training and crossfit, but rarely do sports and MMA stuffs with the boss, PT takes usually from 5 to 7 pm depending on how fast we finish the workout.

[DudefromDiego]

Our RS usually does one every Saturday. Unless something comes up, we are usually out the door by 7:30 AM. We do various things, but none of them are relaxing. For the most part, we go out to MCAS Miramar (only 10 minutes fromt he RS) and work out on the athletic field (tire flips, ammo can lunges, pull-ups, etc.) but if they really want to mess with us, we go to our local canyon and do the "Death Run :no:" which is a 4 mile trek (with even more fun and games in between) through steep inclines, rough gravel, and lots of vomit. Despite the intensity of these workout sessions, they are motivating and we all learn how to work together. Not really mandatory, but the recruiters are weirdly aggressive in making us go :evilgrin:. Not rare to hear about them showing up outside Poolees' houses before they wake up.

[DevilDogsSon269]

We PT everyday. If we dont motivate we get IT after. Also many of us meet with two of the recruiters at the gym and mostly shoot the **** while we work out on tuesday and thursday mornings.

[TFKnight]

Our official PT day is Thursdays and we do an IST and go hiking one Saturday a month. My squad and i also get together on Mondays and Saturdays. Poolees and applicants are welcome to PT Monday-Saturday. They will set you up with p90x or insanity videos.

Our Thursday PT always starts with pull ups/flex arm hang.

Then we form up, stretch and usually do a 1.5 - 3 mile indian run.

We also have a 5 mile run we do which half of it is up hill! If people fall out we stop and do calisthenics.

Then there is the course of death. It's a little over 2 miles. So we run at a very fast pace and every .25 mile or so we stop and do three different calisthenics and each one we do a set of 25 and they are all three counts. Usually leg lifts, flutter kicks, hello dollies, push ups, crunches, star jumpers, lunges, squats, sun gods, four count body builders, you get the idea. You really want to die when your done! Last time one of the Sgt saw i was doing well and made me carry a 15 pound weight. My legs were like rubber.

One time our recruiter was really mad because a guy dropped from boot. So he made all 40 of us build a house for about 15 minutes and then we had to bear crawl through the house twice! My knees and elbows were really bloody when we were done.

We do relay races and suicide sprints as well sometimes.

We always do cadence runs on the way back to our rss.

There's usually 30 minutes of ultimate football as well.

[OVonRomer]

Over here we PT Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, and the "go hard" Saturdays of each week. Usually it's a 2.5/3 mile run, a host of push-ups (both regular and diamond), pull-ups, crunches, and pushing a heavy weight across the floor multiple times.

[Tbrown10]

Mon- fri crossfit endurance.
usually 1.5 for time or 6 miles slow or wind sprints till i cant even crawl ( mon,tues ,thurs. fri)

[IHaveEGA843]

Our RS PT's Mon, Wed, and Fri. I only go to the Wed training due to my work schedule. I do work out after work at the gym Mon and Fri with street running on Tues and Thurs.

At the RS we do cirtcuts, we run for how ever long the Recruiters want us to run, do a ass of crazy workouts and sometimes end it with playing football.

I plan on cutting the gym out and starting CrossFit. I think I'll be well prepared for boot once I finish that training.

[Crusader0451]
