Do a search on the site (poolee forum) for workouts, or even do a google search. There are plenty of exercises out there.

Alright. THANKYOU Ma'am.

[MarinesFiance10]

Im very committed to joining the Corps. Thank you for the advice you've given

Now, ive read other peoples threads about tattoo's. I have a small tattoo on my back. Its of a cross. Its small and even with my small hands, its able to be covered up. would that be difficult to get a waiver u think?

Hahaha. Thanks JT. I am. I get up every morning at 0430 for a 2 mile run. Then, after school i work out for quite awhile. Ive lost 20 lbs. Im getting where i wanna be... Any advice on some workouts?

Get into a style of working out such as Crossfit,endurance and strength training. p90x is a perfect example of what you need to be doing.

if you dont believe me check out one of my pics in my album that **** really does work. all the hype is true

[MarinesFiance10]

I had numerous large scars when I entered that Marine Corps and was fine. By the time I got out I added several more to the collection. Good luck...

[MarinesFiance10]

Thanks. The one on my wrist is approx. an inch long and the one on my upper arm is approx. 2 inches.

Ok ass! lol

Anyhow you still need strong legs and back. As far as your tatoo getting a waiver, it aint ****! All they do is take you to a MEPs center and some Officers look at it to make sure its not offensive in nature and then you get your waiver easy as that.

[MarinesFiance10]

HAHAHA. U know you like it JT. lmfao. but yeah. I was a cheerleader for 2 yrs. VERY strong legs and back. my ex told me that if him and i ever wrestled, id kick his ass cuz my legs are like vise grips. STRONG.

Where on your back is the tattoo?

[MarinesFiance10]

its on my upper back. on my shoulder

You need to be certain it won't show in PT gear. The size doesn't matter if it's hidden.

[MarinesFiance10]

my ex had extra PT gear that he brought home from boot camp. he gave it to me since i run every morning at 0430. its completely covered.

Just make sure tha when you do talk with a recruiter, you mention the tattoo on your back. It will require a waiver, but the Marines here have no idea on whether the waivers will get approved for your scars or tattoo, nor how long it will take.
