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?
"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"
She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.
Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.
The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.
hiit the pushups?

"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"
You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.
She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.
Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.
Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

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...

"Stop Asking Your Friends What to Text Her"
Your buddy Dave has been single for three years and thinks "hey u up" is a valid strategy. Your other buddy Mike just got dumped and told you to "just be yourself."
You showed them her text. You asked them to decode the emoji. You drafted four responses and sent the screenshot to the group chat for a vote.
She's been waiting forty minutes.
Put the phone down. Stop crowdsourcing your love life. Type something that sounds like you. Hit send. Then go do literally anything else with your evening.

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!
"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"
I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.
The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.
Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.

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
