10 weeks of training!
october 5th - december 16th, 2010
monday-friday we started our day with CD1*
after that we alternated daily between stability drills and pullups, or running.
on running days, which happened every other day, were also alternated between sprint days and long run days. so for example, 2nd day was a sprint day, and every 4th day we would have a long run. long run's started at 20 minutes at a 7:00/mile pace, and went up to 35 minutes at a 6:30/mile pace.
on pullup days, we did a set of 5 of each of the following exercises. if you couldn't do it all the way, someone would hold your feet:
- dead arm hang
- heel hook
- standard pull up
- knee tuck
- alternating side pull-up
we also did 25 pushups and 25 situps after every meal. about half way through our training, the drill sergeants changed this to 1 minute AMRAP of pushups, and 1 minute AMRAP situps.
we also had road marches with heavy packs while carrying our rifles, a 4-mile, then an 8-mile, then a 12-mile.
we also carried our rifles and camelbaks with us everywhere we went (about 15lbs extra weight all the time).
we also got "disciplined"/"smoked" for doing stupid stuff allllllll the time, so that would mean an extra workout at least every other day (or multiple times on the same day depending on how stupid/lazy/selfish we acted).
in my opinion, we over-trained. no recovery time. they didn't allow us to eat enough food either.
