Starting with 5 and increments of 5, build to 35 push-ups and immediately do sit-ups in between sets.  You can take no longer than 10 minutes between any pu/su set and once you start a set, you may not stop until you reach your rep number.  When you hit 35 reps, repeat and move down the ladder, again.

Ex:
5 push-ups, 5 sit-ups

10 push-ups, 10 sit-ups

Push-ups:
3 x 10

Sit-ups:
3 x 10

Slow Run:
2 miles

**Note: Run should pass the "Talk-test."  You should be able to continue in a conversation while running, or talk... talk-test; put in an effort to maintain a good pace, but you should not be so out of wind that we could not talk during the run.
**Do the run immediately after your sit-ups.  You need to get your body used to having tight or fatigued hip flexors before your run.

Armstrong

Printable Tracker

Echo Three Juliet Golf:  Begin a stretching program.  Focus on the muscle groups you talked to me about this weekend and we'll progress with a structured program as you work on your mobility/flexibility.

Echo Two Mike: Make your meals smaller and add in a small snack between meals this week.  When you feel hungry, drink a glass of cold water before you go for food.  If your hunger is still there after the water, grab something to eat.  No processed food, no high carb foods, no high sugar foods.  Friday is your "cheat" day.

Cut the $hit

Sixty days (including today) until the graded PT test.

No more "I'll do it tomorrow," or "that's plenty of time," or "I only work out during the last two weeks before an APFT.  I've been doing it my entire career and it has always worked for me...."

You are starting now, get it done.
