Hello, I am 17 years old will be 18 on the 4th of July. I am here asking about ROTC and some ways for me to get in BETTER shape. I am currently working out about 5 times a week doing a Mixed Martial Arts program, Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I am also doing Kali, it is a good workout, but i would like something more intense. I know you Marines know about staying fit. I am 6'1 about 205lbs. I can currently only do 1 pull-up " i know im weak as hell at the moment" and about 50-60 push-ups. I would also like to know more about the ROTC program, because my father told me the only way I can join is by doing ROTC, which I don't really want to do, but i can join as a E-3 and get better pay and get MORE training before i go to boot camp.
Thank you for taking your time to read this and I hope everybody here the best.
