Seeking input regarding prep for Army.

edit: I feel this is the right section as I did not find a section which is more fitting.

What I am seeking is any type of help regarding my prepartion for boot camp and eventually military willing RIP and Ranger School. Quick background for those who have not seen my intro, I am 25years old, I currently work for Lockheed Martin and I am a college graduate with a bachelors in Criminal Justice and a Minor in Computer Science. I also competed in D2 Lacrosse and TripleA Hockey throughout my college career, I currently train/compete in Mixed Martial Arts (Including Boxing, Wrestling, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu and MMA as a sport) and have been for the past 2 years.

I am leaving Lockheed Martin in 4months to join the military, that timeframe is set in stone seeing as I have contract work currently for the next 4months.

Current times:

2mile - 12:50
Pushups 1min - 71
500meter swim - 8min 30sec (1,000 meter 17min 34sec)
Situps 1min - Untimed as of yet
Pullups - 12+
25meter underwater - complete (I am aiming for 50meter)

Current Workout Schedule and Distances

Monday - Weight lifting (Chest), Swimming(1,000 meter swim increasing everyday and also underwater drills to reach the 50meter underwater goal), Running (3miles increasing everyday), Pushup/Situp drills 30sec burnouts 3 sets

Tuesday - Weight lifting (Back), Mixed Martial Arts 6:30pm-9:30pm (including high intesity cardio, boxing, BJJ and live rolling/sparring).

Wednesday - Weight lifting (Shoulders), Swimming, Running, once a month rucking 4miles, Pushup/situp drills

Thursday - Weight lifting (Legs), Mixed Martial Arts 6:30pm-9:30pm

Friday - Typically off, maybe light swimming and/or AirSoft 6pm-midnight

Saturday - AirSoft, Rucking (Going to be the largest ruck day, 8miles, 12miles etc)

Sunday - Rucking, Pushup/Situp drills


So far that is my plan, I JUST started rucking and have not completed a 12mile ruck. My first goal is to get my 4mile ruck under 1hour, core work and pushups are also covered during MMA as we do alot of pushups,ab work.

Thank you for taking the time to read my post.
