Well /fit/ is full of assholes. I'll be joining the USMC in less than a year and I made my way over to that board for my first time to seek help with the IST (Initial Strength Test) and the PFT (Physical Fitness Test). 2 people were just complete dicks about it and I only got one good response (shoutout to that guy).
TL;DR: never going on fit again, and I'd advise anyone who hasn't to stay away.
>dear diary
what they gave it to you straight and now youre butthurt about it?
>>24349171
No they just decided it would be better to insult me instead of helping me. I don't see how they want anyone to become fit while they mock everyone who isn't.

Okay well Im a green side navy corpsman. I do both the Navy PFA and marine PFT. What would you like to know about it?
>>24349260
Well currently I'm just worried about basic training. From my understanding you have to pass the IST before you can go onto basic. And then I heard at around the 10th or 11th week you do a PFT. I want to pass with flying colors as I'm trying to join recon. Right now, I'm not in shape to meet the requirements for a good grade on the PFT and I can barely do 1 pull up.
>>24349324
Prior to going greenside I could only do about 8 pullups. I guess the best advice I could give you is to just start training your lats and incorporate pullups into the workout. I got 18 on the last PFT.
If you are fat eat less
If you are skinny eat more

You think /fit/ is full of assholes so you came HERE? OP I think you want Reddit.

>Go to /fit/
>Ask them how to get a better ass even though I'm a guy
>Never even said I was a cunt or anything
>Half of them refuse to help unless I show tits
>The rest start fighting over each other about the best way to get a nice ass
That place is bothe funny and pretty gay.

I'm not skinny or fat, I'm just average and not in highly good shape. What score would I need to go recon? Do you happen to know?
>>24349426
No I'm a regular here. Just went to /fit/ to seek help physically. How the fuck are a bunch of fat neck beards gonna help me physically?
>>24349466
No, I dont know shit about recon. Sorry bud. I just know the bare minimum for the PFT.
Its like 3 pullups
3 mile in 30 minutes, though I dont know the exact time cuz ive never ran in less than 20
and I dunno about crunches either cuz Ive never gotten less than 95
/fit/ here. if you can't handle us you can't handle the corps.
>>24349496
Alright well I'll just start working out and implementing pull ups. Basic should shape me up to an extent right?
>>24349515
Who said I couldn't handle you guys? I'm just saying you're a bunch of assholes.
>>24349516
Never been through marine bootcamp, but I could only guess it would help to be in some kind of shape before going. Navy bootcamp was a breeze in terms of pt
>>24349535
Did you read the sticky? You only get roasted on /fit/ if your question is answered in there.
>>24349565
Well I didn't get "roasted". A few people decided to actually be helpful but the majority decided to mock me.
>>24349592
I'm interested now, what did you actually post that was so mock-worthy?
