The best advice you can get right now is to go and hide. Clearly you didn't read any of the stickies/ FAQs or the PHYSICAL TRAINING forum.

You have a lot of reading to do.

Chris, you have only one opportunity to make a favorable initial impression. I'm giving you a marginal GO at this station. Right now I want you to read the FAQs, stickies and memorize the Ranger Creed (and while you're at it think about what it means to live by that creed). Almost every question you might have is answered -- you need to find the answer for yourself. Now, I want you to sit down and after thinking about it, tell me why you want to become a Ranger. Never, never quit!

If you get any skinnier, you are going to fall through your asshole and choke yourself.
