Hi,
I enlisted in DEP in October. I was playing football at the time so I didn't start going to PT until mid November. Back when I started the recruiting process I told them that I was going to play baseball in the spring when we had PT and also that I had class on one of the PT days at the time of PT and I would have to skip because of that. He was perfectly fine with it until now. I am a big guy. I was a lineman and have lost considerable weight. I am 74in tall and have long arms and weigh 215lbs. Pullups are a *****. My IST scores have improved but I am having trouble with pull ups but they are getting easier even though I am only doing 2. I don't leave until September 6th, and he is ****ed that I am playing baseball. It is my senior year so I would believe he would be fine with it like he was way back in July when I started the recruiting process and told him about it. But he is not, and he is not happy that I have a class when PT is. I signed up for the class way before I knew when PT was, and I cannot graduate without completing it, and class participation is 10% of the grade. On top of both of those I hate going to PT ever since our old guide shipped who knew what he was doing because we had a routine that helped everyone improve but the new guide and my recruiter are running PT and its awful because it is just one random crossfit exercise after another with no consistency every day and I don't feel any improvement and am feeling kind of weak from it. In fact, I don't even know what to do on my own really. I tend to be lazy but I have no direction whatsoever and I really want to PT on my own but I don't know what to do. My recruiter asked me what was more important, the Corps or school. I said school because I cant officially join without school. Not only that but I have a Lt Colonel who has helped me with the recruiting process who can't help me anymore because it just makes my punishment in PT worse. I also have not been playing their recruiting games which has not helped me at all. I just really need advice because its driving me nuts and I don't know how to handle it.
