Even though I still have yet to be accepted for OCS, I am determined that my time is just around the corner. I am still preparing, and I want to make sure I will succeed if I am given the opportunity to go. I would appreciate any help in modifying this work out to help my chances of making it through OCS with no sweat.
Typical week is as follows...
Monday - 3 sets of push-ups until failure, 3 sets of sit ups until failure, and a 3 mile run at about a 24 minute pace ( I am no runner by any means, and I run by myself with no real instruction at all)
Tuesday - Swim just over 1 mile in about 45 minutes freestyle. (72 laps at a typical YMCA size pool) 2 laps for warm up in case you were all wondering why I picked that number...
Wednesday - Same as monday
Thursday - Same as Tuesday
Friday - Fast sprint 1.5 miles (typically in about 10:30 to 11 minutes which seems to be a plateau for me that I could use some help in improving), drop to do set of push ups till failure, 1 minute rest, and fast 1 mile back to rest.
Saturday - Same as Tuesday and Wednesday
Sunday - Rest
Issues I am having include shin splints (interior muscle type) and forgetting to breathe while running ( odd I know, but I actually have to remember to breathe enough to keep my legs from cramping up!)
Thanks in advance for any advice you PT studs can give me.
