episode 2 : www.youtube.com To respond to some of the people who said that they didn’t see my “Coach Geoff’s Fitness” series going anywhere, here’s the plan: Ep 1- introduce pushups Ep 2- introduce pullups, chinups, chest ups etc. Ep 3- introduce core exercises Ep 4- introduce leg exercises Ep 5- introduce posterior chain exercises and shoulders/pressing exercises Ep 6 and beyond- workouts with scalable exercises that beginners through experts can benefit from. The “fun stuff” is just an example of how far you can go with these simple exercises! I hope that clears up some things. Thanks for all the input! -Coach Geoff

Showing up on day one for Marine Boot Camp without training for weeks first is like begging to get your butt kicked. You need to be in shape both physically and mentally long before you even go speak to your Marine Recruiter.
Week one of Basic Marine Corp Training can be quite a shock upon arrival at Parris Island. As it is, you will be dogged like crazy right up to your limits, many will break the first day. You on the other hand will still feel like heck but by being prepared, you’ll avoid much of the shock and others will bear the brunt before you do.
This article pertains mainly to preparing for Marine Corps basic training at Marine Boot Camp, but the lessons here can be applied to any of the armed forces. Too many recruits show up having done zero research into how to be a Marine or what they are about to endure when dealing with drill instructors.
The physical requirements for the Marines are more stringent than those for other branches and the amount of materials covered is overwhelming mentally. This article series attempts to help you prepare for your 12 weeks of intense training, beginning with the first week and your arrival at Parris Island.
What I suggest is using the time between signing up and the day you leave to train your butt off. If it is more than 12 weeks, great. If not, at least you’ll have head start.
Now I’ll try to give you an overview of what to expect the first week and subsequent articles will deal with the rest of the 12 weeks.
Week 1. Arrive at Parris Island (West of the Mississippi, you’ll go to the training center in San Diego but let’s use Parris Island for ease of discussion). For starters, you’ll show up at about 2AM that first night and will be greeted by screaming drill sergeants.
The DIs will force you to start listening to them while you are still sitting on the bus. They need to instill discipline and the foundation begins immediately. Everything they tell you to do has a reason: to turn you into Marines.
You on the other hand will be living in a blur. You must remember 2 things:
1. Go whenever or wherever an instructor tells you to without question.
2. Forget your name. Practice referring to yourself as “this recruit” and your friends and fellow Marines as “these recruits” for weeks before you show up and implement this technique the second you are first spoken to by an instructor.
Never, ever, refer to yourself as “I” or any other recruit by his name or mention “We. ” This alone will keep you from feeling the heat too much that first week. If you do nothing else, adhering to this rule hard and fast will keep the focus off of you and onto others who are caught unaware and/or otherwise “just don’t get it”.
Start running 4 miles a day, everyday right now. Even if you suck at it, your heart feels like it might burst and you are essentially plodding along, you will be much more mentally prepared to go the 3 miles per day that the Marines will expect of you with less trouble, and finish far ahead of the back of the pack and again, keep most of the heat off of you.
Even if you workout, lift weights and can rip telephone books in half, you will not be prepared for the amount of pushups you’ll be required to do. Here’s a good rule of thumb: be able to 125 straight pushups and build up to 1000 a day. Even if you have to forgo some gym time, do it.
Benching 300lbs, squatting 500lbs and curling 150lbs simply won’t help you when you’re face down in the mud with a DI screaming at you to quit and drop out because you’re struggling with getting to the 600th pushup of the day, its 6PM and the entire company is waiting for you to finish so they can eat.
To recap Days 1-7:
1. Listen and be prepared to do nonsensical things without questioning them.
2. Give zero advice at this stage to other recruits. Just follow DI orders unless you are specifically asked to offer your own and then make it short. On occasion, offer encouragement to those who “get it” but may be physically hurting. Never try to verbally prod a slacker although physically helping up a teammate at your own expense can sometimes endear yourself to the team.
It may or may not endear yourself to the DIs but offering a helping hand at the right time is often better than stepping on a fallen Marine just so you can finish a run, for example.
3. Never, ever, ever, refer to yourself as anything other than “this recruit”. Ever, right from the minute your bus disembarks. Same goes for fellow trainees – they must be referred to “these recruits”. The DIs will be specific if they want you to refer to someone by name.
4. Get used to saying “yes sir” and always look everyone in the eye unless specifically asked not to.
5. Be able to run 4 miles in under 40 minutes.
6. Be able to do 125-150 pushups non-stop, (resting in up position), and do 1000 total per day weeks before you go off to marine training.
This is a good start for anyone considering joining the Marines. Week 2 will be coming soon. These lessons will at least keep much of the heat off of you and onto those who the DIs would like to get some to either drop out or make serious gains.
You can get the entire Weeks 1- 12 (graduation) by signing up for my free newsletter “Marine Tough” at http://www. thegolfhustler. net/bootcamp. html. You’ll learn all aspects of physical and mental toughness necessary for all branches of the armed service and corresponding Special Forces.
Thanks for reading, good luck soldier.

CLICK HERE for a FREE WORKOUT!! www.turbulencetraining.com You will start this workout with a warm up of 3 exercises. The first exercise is a Prisoner Squat. With your feet shoulder width apart, keep your elbows back (your elbows always have to be back for this exercise to be effective) and hips back. Squat down and up. Beginners can do a simple bodyweight squat with your arms straight out in front of you. Do these for 10 Reps. The next warm up exercises are pushups, however, if you are a beginner, do kneeling pushups. The last warm up is a stick up against the wall (shoulder blades together and up against a wall) or inverted rows with a bar. You can also use a rear deltoid raise to warm up the upper back and increase shoulder mobility. Go through this warmup circuit 2 times with 8-15 reps depending on your fitness level. If you are a beginner, do 8 reps or even 5; whatever warms you up, but not too much. Now we’ll move right into the supersets. I havent used these exercises in any TT workouts before this, but they are all variations of exercises I do use. Superset 1 The first exercise in this superset is an Alternating 1-arm dumbbell press. You will not be able to use as much weight as you do for your 2 arm presses. Lie on the bench and press both arms straight up. Hold one arm at the top as you bring the working arm down. Do 6 reps per side. Move immediately into a Deep Step-Up . With regular step ups, you are close to the bench and drive straight up, but with these you …

Arm flab has well humouredly been described by some ladies as their “angel wings” because they flap like wings when you walk or jog. Men also can have these wings of flab.
Now Jon Benson, author of best selling book “Fit Over 40″ says arm flab can be eradicated and offers the cure.
“In my book there are 52 examples of men and women who have replaced their wings with toned, beautiful arms,” said Jon. “Anyone can do it and here are some basics to get you started.
“First you have to get your nutrition down pat. Most people believe that flab can be solved by turning it into muscle. This is not true. Fat does not turn into anything. It is used for energy. Period.
“Muscle is muscle. Fat is fat. You must use low insulin nutrition like I recommend in my all my books to lower your body fat.
“For ladies the back of the arm body fat is often the last bit to go but I promise – it will go. ”
He said the triceps must be trained. The back of the arm was made of three muscles called the triceps. There was a long head, a medial head and a lateral head which form the triceps muscle group.
If you could not access a gym you could do pushups to work all three heads of the triceps.
First, if you can’t do pushups with your legs straight, start by doing them on your knees,” said Jon. “Work up towards doing straight legged pushups later.
“Do one third of them with your hands facing away from your body, one third with your hands facing towards your body(fingers pointing towards you) and the final third with your hands in the normal pushup position, facing the same direction as your body. This will work the triceps nicely. ”

Now, Ron needs to tell his wife Angie his secret. Which isn’t as bad as it sounds – Angie is bisexual, and has been sleeping with other people in Ron’s house. After that, Ron is put through his paces by the audience. Altogether now – “Do ten pushups! Do ten pushups!” I recorded this myself from LIVING2. (Note: UK edits are the shortened-down versions of the show Universal sends for UK audiences. They are 30 minutes instead of an hour, and can cut out things like an entire segment, fights, comments from the audience, etc. However, they’re all I can get, and sometimes they’re better than their US counterparts, as less time is wasted).
