Excellent video, Nicky. I wish I had known this info before boot camp. Thank you for your great input.

I only remember 10 counts; air chairs; a couple weird ones where you lay flat something with sharks. But then again maybe it's different for male vs integrated divisions. Planks would help since you can do them during p days in your rack when no one is looking so your body doesn't get used to doing nothing and then you cant pass your PFA

I'm guessing some RDC's have their "favorite exercises but still helpful either way.

I really enjoyed your video, I went to bootcamp in the United States Navy in Orlando Florida, back in May 1986, you are correct about those jumping jacks I hated jumping jacks because not everyone could work as a team, you always had that one person, just one. I can remember as we hit the last clap then you could hear that one person behind you, that claps two seconds after everyone else has stopped clapping. I hated jumping jacks, not that they were hard, just that you had to do so many, because of that one person was out of sync.

I'm shipping May 30th. Your videos are helping me a lot. I'm actually going to utilize your advice by adding it into my current workout routine 😁💪

Thought i should start preparing for bootcamp today. Haven't done a pushup in like a year, i could only do 12. Dropped again a while later, 14, a little while later 15. At the end of the day I'm at 20. Just like riding a bike

This was very helpful! Gonna pass this on to my fiancé. He goes to boot camp in December. We will be doing this together to prepare him :)

dont skip anything! you'll need it. Secondly if you can do push ups do a combo of planks, and also doing modified push ups with your knees on the ground. Once you get better you can do push ups where you push up and then go all the way down until you lay down. Slowly working your way up to doing normal push up. You should push yourself now on your own terms before you go to bootcamp and are crying in agony lol

lol thank you my sister got them for me.

I just graduated so I’d say push ups, sit ups, ad at least a 2 mile but a 3 mile run would help for the PFA but we got beat a lot so I would definitely advise 10 counts. 1 Squat down, 2 kick your legs out, 3 bring your knees up to your right elbow, 4 kick back out, 5 bring your legs to knees to your left elbow, 6 kick back out, 7 push up (down), 8 push up (up), 9 back to a squat, 10 jump back up. And your going to do a lot of them. Sundials it’s like an iron cross but your rotating your arms and last would be air chairs. Sit down with your knees at a 90 degree angle with no support. Those would be my advice to anyone about to go to boot camp. Hope this is helpful Hooya go navy

Thanks for your video!! Can you give some idea of roughly how much of your time in bootcamp is spent doing all the exercise/running/etc? Most of the things I watch make it seem like it's basically all day every day. I'm hoping it's not quite that much. I'm just trying to get an idea of what kind of shape I should be in before going. I'm 32, so probably not as 'resilient' as most of the people joining, and I don't wanna get kicked out for some sort of injury or whatever. Thanks!

I am trying to join the Navy either as enlisted or officer. I've been working out,lifting weights, doing cardio. I also I have job that is super heavy with the exercise. My thing is that I am not good at doing push-ups, nor sit-ups is there a way that I can help myself out.

Hey Nicky I'm leaving for boot camp in a few months and I'm good at push ups and running however my question is do you have a link to where I can find the full navy PRT work out

Interesting. My boot camp was in San Diego, in 1966. We did practically zero exercises. Our physical training was pretty much limited to learning and rehearsing our graduation day parade. We carried an M-1 rifle (non-functional, leaded piece) with tight sling...make it pop! There was a routine done, called "physical drill with arms" which was done in sync with military music, 120 beats per minute, same as marching pace. Darned rifle was swung around this way and that, everybody, in unison, at wide interval. A manual-at-arms routine was done, also, with this club of a rifle. The whole routine took maybe an hour. Every day we did this. No pushups, no running, no nothing. We were somehow misbehaving one day, and our company commander decided to punish us. We go to wide interval, port arms and start to double-time across the grinder, 180 beats per minute. After about a minute, he brings us to a halt, and he is puffing and panting and asks us if we learned our lesson. Yeah...we learned that this overweight chain-smoking bosun has zero endurance. We did have a "thinking position" with the M-1 that was kind of painful after several minutes, but it was not tiring. The fat kid in the company was the chow runner, who had to secure permission for us to eat, and get a position in the queue on the grinder outside the mess hall. That was our exercise.

Guys, just do a butt load of pushups and sit ups everyday. And I don't mean overtrain, just do reps until failure. In 3 weeks you'll see a difference. If you can't do pushups do the ones with your knees on the ground, can't do sit ups? Put your hands on the ground and do them till failure until you build up your strength. if you're really weak do it in the morning and before dinner or afternoon. Eat well!

I just enlisted in the army, tenantive leave to fort benning is currently jan 11th. I'm curious about availability of proteins, what a typical chow consists of, I assume bcaa and supplements in general won't be available. I stopped smoking weed, which means I won't eat like retard anymore (like have to sleep sitting up or I'll puke) This type of fitness is a hard habit to start so I'm damn glad I don't have choice, when I have to do something (shitty but ok paying jobs) and especially something that has extreme benefit waiting at the other end, I get good at it. I'm scared as hell for the first 2 weeks, but excited as fuck for that day when I notice a difference. My old landscaping boss is letting me store my preciois 01 dodge ram at his compound. I got 1 baby mama bill each month, I'm not in any relationship, I have 2 secured and 1 unsecured credit card in rotation and my utilization will def drop while at basic. My biggest fear is getting confused or not understanding DI and the whole company getting wrecked because I fucked up. I need this ass kicking bad. Like a jump start for the soul. And lastly, idc what I have to do, I need to be able to go to Scotland, Ill travel anywhere but it is absolutely imperative I get to Scotland at some point. Thanks for the Intel, even though I'm army and you're navy.
