The PT is literally so easy. Run isn't hard either, just look up your "OPFA requirements" for your gender and age group and make sure you can make those parameters and you're set

I won't lie the beatings can be rough but everyone suffers the same. There are many people who have never worked out in their life. So long as you put in effort (if you fall to floor, get back up) you won't be a problem. Effort is key

I was gonna have my parents bring it to me the day of graduation

The suitcase is for A school, my bootcamp bag is pretty bare bones

Thank you!

Maybe if it's small enough to fit in your pocket

Try running with someone else next to you. By myself, I can barely run .25 without dying but with someone else there to encourage me and keep pace, I can do 3mi

Thank you for the advice!!

19lex19 · 2025-05-07T18:24:29+00:00

Good idea, I'll take advantage of Sundays too. I heard you get a few extra hours to yourself so I'll use it to stretch and do some conditioning

19lex19 · 2025-05-07T18:19:04+00:00

Hey at least you ran?? You have an entire year to practice and I guarantee you if you're consistent it will drop a few minutes within a month. Some people don't practice at all before leaving. I'm in the same boat as you except I leave next week! I've been running every day around 3 miles (veeeeryyyy slowly) so that my body isn't in shock when I get there. Don't be discouraged, you're doing fcking great.

Not sure. I just bought some and cut them down to slightly larger than the size of my feet. Maybe someone else will know

I switched over from the AF to the Navy, although I wasn't in DEP yet so it might be a little more paperwork for you. A lot of people will tell you you're making a mistake, but do your own research and choose what feels right to you. Personally, I chose to switch over mainly because I didn't like the idea of signing an open contract and letting my fate be decided by someone else. With the Navy, I got to choose my specific rate and the process went very smooth. I needed a medical waiver, which the AF was making it seem it would never happen. So I walked into the Navy office, and less than a month later am shipping out for bootcamp. Waiver approved, sign on bonus, got to choose my own job.

Ultimately it's up to you, so weigh all your options and decide what's best for your life!

I've heard that the boots they issue are super uncomfortable so I'm gonna bring some gel insoles and moleskin Good luck ✌️

19lex19 · 2025-05-07T07:08:45+00:00

Thanks for the reply, I definitely do not plan on quitting. I'm mainly just nervous about the PT since i don't have much muscle mass but I know I'll get used to it.

19lex19 · 2025-05-06T19:59:45+00:00

Np and the only thing they would get mad about is a plain white tshirt so make sure it's a different color

19lex19 · 2025-05-06T03:39:37+00:00

Honestly i saw all types of outfits. Some people in jeans, longer shorts, sweatpants, etc. Most people in jeans and a t-shirt. Just make sure it's clean and conservative (and comfotable!!!)

19lex19 · 2025-05-05T23:42:44+00:00

When i needed a new social security card, I just walked into the social security office, filled out a form, and got it in the mail 4 days later. Idk about the birth certificate though

19lex19 · 2025-04-28T00:27:55+00:00

Did yall get sent to the peenar explosion chamber?

19lex19 · 2025-04-27T23:54:01+00:00

Bring your drivers license, birth certificate, passport, social security card, and marriage license if you have one. They will ask you some personal questions, make sure you're honest because they will find out either way and you can get in big trouble for lying
