I agree with Ranger Jurena's post above. You said 90 days. We would like your PT time NOW. That being said is what you can do right after you read this reply ASAP.RangerJurena wrote:1. Ranger RangerJurena is redundant.mchclay19D wrote:Ranger RangerJurena,
I did not mean for my post to come across as cocky if that was they way you interpreted it. I am here seeking guidance and advice. In my feable mind there is a difference between athleticism and conditioning (the latter is what I lack the most).
Also, I meant that I had been at an all time low not that I am at one currently. Which is why I made the comment about anything being possible having been through what I considered one of the most difficult timeframes in my life.
I am extremely humble before yourself and the other Rangers on this board.
I will give myself a PT test this weekend and report back to you with the results and go from there.
2. I doubt your mind is feable, you've served once and are doing it again.
3. You pulled yourself up by your boot straps, congrats.
4. Don't humble yourself before me, I'm a washed up, 10 year removed from the Army, civilian. You my friend, are answering the call of a war time Army.
5. Take the test, post the results and we will see if we can help.

PT Results
They are not good, but I agree with you all...establishing a baseline is important so that I may track my progress.
PU = 35
SU = 40
The run ended up being a disaster as I tried to pace myself to quickly for what my body was ready to do. I made the 1.5 mile mark in 12 minutes but my legs and lungs gave out shortly thereafter. On the upside I think I might have shed an additional pound or two from the amount of bloody flem I coughed up when I returned home.
