Currently using the Military Athlete APFT program to get a higher score. In about a month I will start the MA ruck-based program, which will take me all the way until I ship out. Before these I was just lifting heavy to build a good foundation and running 2-3 times a week.
The APFT program is pretty awesome. I've already gained 20 reps in my pushups, and about the same in my sit ups. My best 2 mi so far is 13:15. I'm still not where I want to be yet, but I'm pretty confidant I'll be making head way by the time I leave on Feb 20.
I'm rucking 1-2 times a week. Normally a quick ruck (3-5 mi) on Monday, and then a longer ruck (8-12 mi) later on in the week. I've never gotten a blister in my entire life. Not hiking, not in Brasil where the only mode of transportation was my feet - but I'm still working on conditioning my feet. I'm eating 5-6 clean meals a day. My sleep is a work in progress, because I'm trying to cram so much into one day. It's still not perfect, and there's a TON of room for improvement, but I'm getting there.
