Hello all,
I am an incoming freshman into a university on scholarship from NROTC. As August is approaching, I am physically preparing myself for the PFT, and am looking for the best way to do so.
The minimum required scores for me are:
Curl ups - 62
Push ups - 24
1.5 mile - 13 mins 30 secs
At the moment, I am fine with my curl ups. However, I am struggling to reach 24 pushups while maintaining the 90 degree angle with my arms. I'm not sure how strict the cadre will be when administering the PFT, but regardless I am trying to fix that, but am not sure how.
My run time is what I'm concentrating on the most. I average at a 9.5 minute mile and at my best, have gotten 13:50 on my 1.5 mile. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to go about improving my times and reps? or any routine suggestions? I have a little less than 2 months left, specifically 53 days. Thank you!
