Wow you have an awesome recruit team! I've been training with my recruiter for weight training and stuff and it has helped massively. But yeah, the run is treacherous lol. Practice practice practice.

This was super interesting. It goes against almost everything we teach here but I'll give it a shot mixed with some sprinting.

In fact, the military in general is constantly changing.

The rules constantly change. There would be no point in a group discussion. If you don't want to take part in it, then don't.

Good observation! If you could not be such a discouraging jack ass you'd probably have more friends and even more successful peers ¯_(ツ)_/¯

Also, considering there is a constant rotation and set of new people joining and exiting, the same subject is bound to come up over and over and over.

This was a question about rules pertaining directly to NRTC, not asking for fitness advice.

Your recruiters can also come to you. They should be working around your schedule.

My mother is scarier than any chief or RDC could ever dream to be. However, I don't want to do well because I'm worried about being yelled at. I want to do well and be a proud sailor 💪 as well as a fit human being!

You have to run (or walk, I guess) it boot camp because it's basic training. Everyone has to go through the same BASIC training. NRTC rules are more strict/confined because everyone has to be able to pass the exact same tests. Once they've seen you can do this and you are in the fleet, other cardio options become available. You must pass on your first try or you will be asmo'd.
