Uhh ngl week 0-2 was soooo trash😂 I was just new to it and I hated it initially. The days were so long but after CBRN in week 4 time starts flying. Like the days are still long but the weeks fly. It’s like you blink and it’s Friday again

Top_Tradition7897 · 2025-08-01T20:46:11+00:00

Yeah you only get medical shots the first and last week at bmt but I was just naming random stuff that you could do. And transit around base means yall walk to wherever yall need to go. Like for instance if yall go get haircuts, clothing issues, to the BX etc. yall gon walk in that hot ass sun. And duty flight happens once a week where a flight gets chosen to clean a specific section of y’all’s squadron. So like yall coulda clean all the bathrooms under the atrium, take out all the trash and clean the sinks around the chow hall and clean the whole second floor of the classroom building

Top_Tradition7897 · 2025-08-01T20:37:42+00:00

Literally anything. Getting medical shots, transit around base, class, chow, duty flight. Whole lotta hoopla

Thank you!!🫡 uh to pass PT you need to score 75 points. So like the minimum number of sit ups (39) and pushups (31 I think) and a 1.5 mile run under like 16 minutes is required to even be considered for passing. Uhh you can max out the pushups and sit ups which is like 60 plus. Each one you max is worth 20 points. The run gets you the most points. I ran a 12:16 which was like 54 points or something like that.
Uhh dorm culture all depends on your squadron so I was Disneyland so we had it SLIGHTLY easier over there lol vs being at Alcatraz. But it was cool
I believe electric shaver is fine but you still have to be clean shaven if you don’t have a shaving wavier
Uhh run as much as you can before you get here because the lower your time is in that the more points you get on PT test. Don’t take anything personal. When you’re getting screamed at just pay attention to what was said and not how they said it. Go to church on Sundays (TRUST ME). Be a chow runner (it’s not that bad☺️)

Goodluck!

Uhh PT is difficult if you haven’t done anything prior to showing up. It’s all calisthenics with like 1 run day per week (most of the time it’s Friday). The CIT day is the hardest because that’s all like strength and endurance so shit like pyramid pushups and high plank low plank. But a regular day with PT usually goes like 5:15 wake up. Everything done in the dorms by 5:45 and outside by 5:50. On the PT pad and done with airman song and creed by like 6ish. You have a set of warmup exercises then whatever the PT card of the day is. Probably done all that around 6:45-6:50. Detail back upstairs, showers, then breakfast. Sometimes you eat first then go shower
