  15. Hi!  I am thinking of joining the Army and I have a few questions.  I would    like opinions on what to expect in Basic training.  I would also like so       suggestions on how to get into shape before reporting to Basic.  A friend      recommended that I begin doing pushups, situps, and plently of ruck marches. 
  16. While I do not doubt that this information is true I do not know how many or 
  17. how far.  How fast should the ruck march be, with how much weight, and how far?I would appreciate any workout suggestions.
  18.  
  19. Thanks in advance,
  20.

  24. PS:  Should the workout be done while wearing heavy combat boots?
