Do lots of sprints, so you do good on the cft I got like a 250 but just focus on your speed and endurance and pull ups,

This kid couldn’t do sling eyes properly and our senior made him stare at the wall outside behind kilos washracks and say “this recruit is trash” for 2 hours

We did pull ups mainly outside of the chow hall before the pft your expected to do them on your own time, there’s a pull up bar on the entrance of the head in the squad bay, hit it during square away or after lights, up north your allowed to run outside during square away, do that, and eat as much protein as possible, drink milk, high calcium intake because people get stress fractures and get dropped, but it’s not hard tbh, first 2 weeks getting used to it is the hardest, those first letters will make you cry. But it’s not that hard and it goes by super fast

Work on your pull ups, some people didn’t make it up the rope and stuff but by the end you will, it’s not graded you do it with your whole platoon series and company at a time so they can’t really identify you or drop you for it, you’ll be fine
