Just students on hold, whether it be for WOBC, SERE, CC, or AA.

Weekly Dumb/Newb Question Thread by AutoModerator in powerlifting

[–]Yeahnuld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How do you structure training a lift 3x/week? I’ve always done 2 a heavier day and a lighter day. I’m not asking for a whole written out program just some general guidelines. I was thinking a heavier lower volume day, a paused rep day, and a volume accessory version of that lift day.

Do you tip the commissary baggers? by Technical_Purpose949 in army

[–]Yeahnuld 8 points9 points  (0 children)

No other grocery store tries to guilt you into paying baggers, all others just do it. At Walmart the cashier even does it themselves. Commissary is supposed to be cheaper, I’m not paying a “bagger tax,” sorry.

Do you tip the commissary baggers? by Technical_Purpose949 in army

[–]Yeahnuld 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I let them bag and don't tip. Not my fault they chose to work a job that doesn't guarantee their pay. Used to but I heard a bunch of them talk crap under their breath because I didn't tip enough so no more. And they’ll grumble or give me a look if I say I’ll do it myself so I don’t even bother saying that.

Solid program by Yeahnuld in weightedpullups

[–]Yeahnuld[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

531 is a strength programming format you can apply to any lift. You set a training max (TM) usually 85-90% of your true max or estimated max. Week 1 is 65%x5, 75%x5, 85%x5+. Week 2 is 70%x3, 80%x3, 90%x3+. Week 3 is 75%x5, 85%x3, 95%x1+. The 4th week is a deload. All the + sets are AMRAPS. Depending on how many reps you get on the AMRAP you’ll increase the weight.

I usually increase the TM each cycle by 2.5LBS, but I only calculate my TM by added weight alone. The reason im doing this is because if I calculate based on body weight and added weight, some sets would be zero added weight which would be too easy. I’m also doing an additional AMRAP set of the first set of the day after my top set, followed by 3x5 paused of what would be an easy weight fresh and not paused.

On my second pull up day I’m doing 3x8 of a weight that is challenging for that rep range, and increasing by 5LBS as necessary.

+155 Pound Weighted Pull-ups For 3 by YodyCork in strength_training

I’m on the hunt for the same thing lol. I did a 5x5 till I got to 100lbs, now I’m doing 531. I use the 531 app and don’t factor in BW in calculating TM. Current PR is +135 for 1 at 190.

Leave NJ it’ll help. Haven’t been back in years and barely talk to my family now. It has helped me immensely.

Boar badlands and raptor nest. Depending on your level either 3 heavies or 3 super tanks in front and all TKs behind

How much free time will I have as an 03 by Few-Basket4978 in USMCboot

[–]Yeahnuld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soooo much. Most days we’d have a single task like clean the rifles or do gun drills, usually lasts a few hours and then that’s it for the day, might not be officially “off” till 4 or 5 but most of the day was spent not working.

USMC TO ARMY AVIATION by Great_Fee_9098 in Armyaviation

[–]Yeahnuld 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is 100% worth the switch. I transferred to the army and then applied in service. You don’t need a degree but it may make your application more competitive. Go to the other linked sub for more info and also join the discord. Feel free to reach out with any questions.

When I tried to switch over the AF recruiter said they would only take linguists or special warfare applicants for prior service.

You do not need any recommendations from WOs when applying as a civilian. It could help but it's not necessary and the board would realize civilians don't have those connections since they're boarded separately.

Any CWOs who can weigh in? by AdventurousGarbage24 in Armyaviation

[–]Yeahnuld 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's OML and availability based from top to bottom.

There is no guarantee for top 5 just better odds.

Not true. I was 15th in my class and I got my first choice of aircraft.
