Produces awesome results!
Hey guys, sorry I've been away for a whole month. I know I told myself I would try to update this blog once a week, but sometimes life gets in the way of that. Between work, taking classes and training almost everyday, sometimes it's hard to do the little things.
Anyways, I've been studying, reading and exercising as much as possible. I have my 11 General Orders down cold and I'm getting there with the Rates and Ranks. The hardest part is actually memorizing the descriptions of the embroidery for all of them. I've also been doing the practice exercises in the Coast Guard Boot Camp Survival Guide so I feel like I'm pretty ready to pass the main timed objective exercise when we get to Cape May. Also feeling pretty good about being able to maintain my military bearing. The tips and practice exercises in the Survival Guide have helped me a lot with that too.
In terms of my workouts, I've been following the Coast Guard Boot Camp fitness success program that the guy gives you when you buy the Coast Guard Boot Camp Survival Guide and it's been working very well. I can do slightly more than the minimum for all the PFT requirements, but I want to keep training so I can do a lot more than the minimum. I haven't tested myself on the swim yet but I think I'll be fine.
How's everyone else out there training for Coast Guard Boot Camp doing?
