Re: Vibram Five Fingers

I use them on my runs and as previously mentioned it took care of any shin splints or knee pain I might have had. Over time they supposedly give you some massive calves, as well as develop your "finer" foot muscles. Anyone have any questions on them just ask. I passed 24 years of APFT's w...

Re: Surviving the Cut

first episode I *believe* is Ranger School. Another reason for people not in the know to confuse Ranger School with RASP. :roll: I'm somewhat confused by your post, are you talking to me or just making a general comment? Isn't it safe to say that RS is part of the 75th's "pipeline" if you...

Re: 12 week RASP program

I noticed the program doesn't have much running in it, either, sprints aside. The Pull Ups are ladders, I did it on my Friday workout and they are serious, try them. You'd do a total of 63 Pull Ups in a relatively short amount of time. The program is back on the website.

Introduction - Geoff

My first name is Geoffrey and I will more than likely by joining the Army soon with an Option 40 contract. The only reason I have yet to join is because I am not yet fit enough. I am going to start running soon to get my endurance up to par with what I believe is where it needs to be (aiming for a 3...

Re: No OPT 40's available? Here's how to respond.

Went to the recruiters office last week to take the practice ASVAB, I got the "no Ranger contracts available." I smiled. Thanks.
