If I'm getting ready to take a math test, I generally try to study the applicable math lessons I expect to be on the test, and don't spend much time reviewing Cossack history. I'm sure the rucking/kettlebell workout is a real smoker, but since Mr. McClellan has some very specific physical tests he'll need to pass to get where he wants to go, he may be well advised to employ a bit of related specificity to his preparation and integrate those graded events.

Marc, have you ever had the 60-70 push-ups you can perform with no training evaluated by someone that's administered an actual APFT, to standard? You may be surprised to find that what you consider 70 'good' push-ups equals about 35 or less when graded by someone other than yourself. Just something to consider.
