i need to do as many pushups and situps as possible in two minutes. its part of the army pt test. and i was ust thinking, since that is an endurance thing and not a strangth thing as much, could you do a sort of hiit training method with both pushups and situps. like do burnouts for 15 seconds and the regular rate for 15. would this be better then just doing a whole bunch of pushups?
Why "Whatever You Want" Keeps You Single
She says the movie looks dumb; you suddenly agree. She tests you with a little attitude; you apologize for nothing.
You think you're being easy to get along with. She reads something else entirely: a man with no edges. Nothing to hold on to. No friction, no tension, no reason to wonder what he really thinks.
The "22 Rules" taught me to push back — playfully, calmly, without needing her approval. Strange things happened after that.
hiit the pushups?

"The Coffee Shop Girl You Never Spoke To"
You've replayed it a hundred times. She stood three feet away, scrolling her phone. You had an opening. You composed the perfect line — after she was gone.
For all you know, she's married now. To some guy who said something. Anything.
Openers are cheap. Almost any sentence works when it's delivered within three seconds. The expensive part is the standing there, drafting and deleting, while the window quietly closes.
The "22 Rules" stripped out my hesitation. What to open with, how to keep it alive, and the one habit that costs guys more women than anything else: waiting for perfect.

decline push-ups
place feet on chair, do push-ups until tired. 3 times a day
i used this to improve my push-ups from 25/min to 70/min.
sit ups: 43 is the passing mark, yes?

Ok, here goes;
Sittups- just do it twice as slow... by doing that ur excerting more power and putting more effort onto the muscles... the slower you do it the harder it gets... bend ur knees (like ud ussually do), cross ur hands over ur chest, and dont forget; if u dont want a stiff neck by the age of 25... then the trick is always to look at the sealing... trust me...
rotate the positioning of ur legs so that you could work on other parts of ur abs...
Pushups- Correspondingly, do it slow for a better effect... and if u wanna change the resistence just move the positioning of ur hands... the closer they are to eachother, the harder it is... no need to place ur feet on a chair... it wont make much of a difference... and, nevertheless, its not good for u as the blood flows up to ur head which may result in a migrain...
You wanna build muscles as quick as possible..? gain strength...? eat 30g of protein b4 each workout...(eggs, fish, meat, shakes, etc...). Likewise, you could also use amino acid pills... amino acid is essential in building and repairing muscle tissues... im not gonna get into all this crap now coz i dont have time... most of what i said is probably obvious, but i thought it wouldnt hurt reminding u...
Cya later muscle boy...

"She Wants a Man, Not a Boy"
You asked her if she wanted to grab coffee. Then you asked if the time worked. Then you asked if the place was okay. Then you asked if she'd prefer tea.
Four questions. Four chances for her to say no. Four signals that you're terrified of making a decision.
Plan it. Pick the place. Pick the time. Tell her where to meet you. She'll either show up or she won't.
Either way, you look like a man instead of a scared little boy.

Lt Dan,
Where are you stationed at? I'm in Hawaii right now at Tripler Army Medical Center. Got a lucky assignment. I'm a 91W (Combat Medic)
As far as maxing the PT test for push-ups I can do it pretty easily. I'm 19 so I only need 71 to max. I usually knock out 45 in the first 50 seconds then rest for 10 seconds and then do like 10 and then rest and another few sets of 5.
Any advice on maxing those sit-ups? I usually finish with around 70 and my run is around 14:00 but will improve.
Take care

I saw the screen name and figured you were already in. ROTC and the officer route is DEFINITELY the way to go if you plan on making a career out of the Military. I'm considering finishing up my time and getting out to finish me Bachelor's and then re-enlisting as an Officer. Depends though
Good Luck!
Good Luck!
"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"
When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.
Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.
Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.
The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Yes u do, sorry.
You drink/eat protein b4 and after... half an hour the difference....
Why b4, why after?
before- so that the amino acids that are broken down by the protein will create new muscle tissues..
After- after you work out, your muscles are obviously damaged... and, one of the functions of protein is to repair muscle tissue... ergo, have protein half an hour after in order to repair the muscle that was damaged during the workout...
ciao
