I currently run inside because of the icy conditions outside. If the weather stays like it has for a couple more days, I will be back to running outside soon.
I have plateaued from ROTC PT. From this point on, only doing that cannot possibly help my scores. I am just looking for advice on the best way to improve my scores outside PT.
OK, here is the no shit deal. If you are not doing push-ups and sit-ups at every possible opportunity, you're wrong. when you can, jog or run to each location you are heading to (i.e. classes, across campus, etc). When you have the opportunity to actually perform physical exercise, and you are trying to build speed, do interval training (i.e. run fast between light poles, then jog for the next two, and repeat as many times as you can).
All of this is spelled out pretty much of any and all things you could and should be doing instead of typing on here.
Good Luck
Thanks for giving it to me straight. I will try to get on here and post my next PT test score and use that as a starting point, and so that myself and others can use it to compare to my future tests scores that I post.
