First I would like to start off by saying that physical fitness for the army is all about CARDIO. No one can ever do enough CARDIO to prepare for the army. As it is right now I go to the gym 6 days a week and run 45min to 1 hour everyday after my workout.
For example, today I went to the gym and did my weight training **HYPERTROPHY** for about 1 hour with some rest between workout routines. After which, there was a resting period of about 10minutes while I ate 3 kiwi's and drank a Redbull. Yeah yeah, I know your going to say that it is bad for the Redbull, but it really helps me to go that extra distance. ***IF ANYONE KNOWS OF SOME NATURAL WAYS WITHOUT THE REDBULL, PLEASE FEEL FREE TO LEAVE SOME COMMENTS** So, after eating and drinking I do my run. After the running comes the chin-ups and there is several of them to be done. As it is right now, I can do 5 to 6 chin-ups on my own, but for the remainder, the chin-up machine helps me. This machine is really useful to build up your strength of your upper body so you are able to do the chin-ups on your own. And finally I complete my workout with a 10minute stretching session, which is very important to do if you want your muscles to feel good after!
One last thing that I forgot to mention is protein shake before working out and one right after, because this helps your muscles get bigger.....instead of having to eat a ton of food that has protein in it.
Anyways, this is a typical day for me when working out. Tomorrow I am only concentrating on CARDIO. So, I shall all wish you a good night and want you to be looking forward to my entry tomorrow night. I am going to talk a little about the actual training that goes on for the trade which I am going for in the army.
