Training for Basic

[banjogirl]

Hi. I am slated to go for Basic Training in November, and have been working on my fitness. I was wondering if there is any advice people could give me to get in better shape and to stay motovated.....I am a female and a bit overweight. Also, if there is anyone in the same boat who wouldn't mind maybe buddying up to get in shape.

Thanks

Welcome to army.ca

Not to be mean or anything, but my advice is READ.  We have many topics here that will answer your questions, even ones that pertain to female centric training and problems.

Too many topics being created to ask the same questions, makes it very difficult for others to search for the answers, and members get cranky answering the same questions over and over again; this not being a CHAT forum.  Try doing a SEARCH for keywords that you would like to find information on.  We have topics on RUNNING, PUSHUPS, HAIR REGULATIONS, SHINE SPLINTS, and many more.  Just look and read.  Many of your questions have been asked and answered before, and many questions that you haven't even thought of yet, have been answered as well.

Start working your triceps, military pushups require alot of tricep strength.

Is it necessary to repeat what was already said in threads that go beyond 100 pages (in some cases) ?
