      I was invited to apply for a job doing "heavily" armed security. Get to play with Barrett's, grenade launchers, 240b, carry hk m4 & glock .40

      I know a bunch of people who work there including my grid kid football coach and scout master. It's a pretty cool job. Contracted to protect nuclear materials and every toy to do it with. They train a lot and stay proficient with their weapons.

      Is a $10 pay cut but it's 13 hours closer to family and way more entertaining than my desk job. Plus you get paid to pt 4 hours a week at work Ina full gym only for security.

      Besides selling my house and moving 1,000 miles I'm afraid the hardest will be the pt test. I haven't trained for standard in 6 years.

      8 min 1 mile
      40 push up 2 min
      50 sit up 3 min
      9 pull ups no time limit from hanging position
      8 sec 40 yard dash from a prone position
      Bench press body weight for 3 rep or 30lbs less for 6

      So I went to the gym tonight and did

      40 push up in 1 min
      43 sit up 2 min
      2 pull ups
      210 for 5 reps

      I did a bunch of remedial pull ups and bench and core. By that time I didn't have a mile left in me. I've never had a timed 40 yard before so I've no idea where I'll stand on that I'm not too worried about the mile. I have 6-8 weeks to prep for this. Everything was from the cold tonight. I haven't worked out much this winter and I put on 20 lbs from being sedentary. Currently 240. The pull ups scare me, I've never had to do pull ups for anything and have never really trained them. I think the most I ever did at once was 7 probably 30 lbs light with an underhand grip. This test requires an overhand.

      Between just doing as many as I can. Slowly lowering myself and the assisted pull up I feel pretty good I can prepare in 6-8 weeks.

      I am worried about my weight and diet though. There's no standard on them but I know it would help everything if I cut fat but I worry about trying to gain strength at the same time. I've never been concerned with a standard for years especially since I started training for physique.

      Right now I'm think about setting my calories for my metabolic rate so I'm in the middle of gain and loss. I should be able to cut some weight and still have the energy for muscular strength and endurance.

      I appreciate any advice and experience. I haven't looked at fitness in this angle for years so I want to make sure I get the most out of my 6 week prep.

      I'm currently cruising 250 cyp. I just started using .25 t3 daily and eca 25/200/81 twice a day

      I have dianabol, anadrol and anavar on hand. I have maybe 200 20mg tabs anavar which I'm sure won't be enough. If I used the dbol I think I'd only want to use it 4 weeks for fear of too much water weight. And probably 4 weeks with the anadrol because it's anadrol. Just to clarify these are on hand and would only consider using 1 oral at a time.

      to work on your pull ups man you can goggle the recon pull up challenge or do what i always did to get 20.

      what i did was every single day i went in and did sets of whatever i could get until i hit 50 total reps. some days it only took 2 maybe 3 sets and some 4 or 5. it works very very well for me and everyone i worked on remedial pt with. you got this test no problem man

      ok just noticed the cycle at the bottom and you needing work on the run as well.

      for the cycle, unless you have to actually cut weight. drop everything but the cyp at maint. you dont want anything that is going to give you lower back pumps or make your legs and other muscles pump with endurance. trust me, i used to have to do tests and crap all the time and i got this down to a science haha. orals are def a big no no. the only things i ran going into testing or schools was test and npp deca and or eq.

      now for the run. you want to make money on dropping your run time as fast as possible with as little wear and tear as possible. we do this by using intervals to our advantage. you can do it with sprints on the track or a step mill. 30-60sec as hard as you can then 2-3mins at a shuffle or slow jog. you do these for 10-30 minutes 4 times a week and then throw in a nice mile run 1-2x and you are golden. this method will get your run time down faster than any other i have found and ihave done it at 200lbs all the way up to 250+

      Whew it uphill. I did a 7.6 40 yard from a runners stance. I need to do under 8 from the prone.

      I hit .62 mile at 8 min. Hard to set a pace on a treadmill. Set it for 7 min mile and that didn't last long. After I broke it took me another 8 to finish the mile. Fucking a, if you don't use it ya lose it.
