    Preparing

    Hello, im new to these boards and would like to get some information,if anyone can help me with this. I am 16 year's old I will be 17 this november. I am about 5'10, 175 pounds, planning on joining the Marines as soon as I graduate high school. I am looking for a good work out program that will help me get into shape and prepared for bootcamp, if there is a really good program someone can tell me about, or any tips at all to get me in top shape, it would be much appreciated, thanks in advance.

    Re: Preparing

    Yeah next week because I was already currently on a work out program that ended today on sunday, and I posted that on wednesday in advance because I knew the workout program I was on now would be ending this weekend, so I was looking for another work out program that might be better than the one I was on.

    Re: Preparing

    The best program is simply one that works on what you are focusing on.

    If you search through the boards there are several workout plans posted through out.

    Does your RSS have Poolee functions for PT?
