I took my first pt test today. I did 71 push ups in 2 minutes and 76 situps. I ran the 2 mile in 12 min 23 seconds. Is this good?

 

[Novtec1]

nice run time... whats your age? im 31 do 89 push ups 92 sit ups and i usually run 1320-13-30's but i got knee surgery so........ there goes my run time......

 

[djpast]

baby seal?

 

[candela]

I take it thats an army PFT huh j/k

We had to run 3.2 miles, do pull-ups and sut-ups. My last (before I got out) was 100 sit-ups, 20 pull-ups and a 19:04 3.2 mile run. The only place I lost points was the run as 18:00 is perfect...

I guess the Marines chants and the army's are a bit different cause Ive never heard that one before

 

[ECLIPSE4x4]

whats a cayden?

 

[97dsmbishi]

think he meant cadence...?????
sorry, in the af, we don't really do a whole lot of exercise.
we have the occassional wing run or whatnot....they pretty much leave it up to you to stay in shape.

Tru that and that's the way I like it

 

[luv2eclipse]

Cadence-caden, same thing. I'm 18 and I took my pt test and I haven't worked out in the longest time. I was so out of shape. I'm still sore...... it really sucked. First pt test, out of shape..... I thought I did pretty good.

That is correct. We marched and sang that just as we went by the museum and there were alot of little kids there that we didn't see looking at us funny. .

 

[sweet95]

That sounds good but whats a perfect score? Marines run 3.2 miles as many crunches as you can do in 2 min. and as many pull ups as you can do. A perfect score is 300, 20 pull ups ,18 min run and 100 crunches. I think the air force rides a exercise bike(.LoL) On my last (PFT) I ran a 17:20 run 47 pull ups and 164 crunches. it seems like a lot but thats about a norm for everyone in my unit. I wish we did push ups and dips also, it would make it a little more challeging. I hate singing cadence it makes me feel like im in grade school.

 

[GalantGSR91]

you my friend have gone extended scale...perfectr on the run is 1300 flat, perfect on pushups is like 90 reps but you got a 90% and perfect situps is like 100 so you got a 90% there or so. congratulations...keeps scores like that and you'll have a PT patch in the first 3 weeks of basic.

*edit* and BTW...that's probably the dumbest ####in cadence I've ever heard. It rates up there with the yellow bird cadence.

 

[luv2eclipse]

Leave yellow bird alone!!!!!!!! Yeah that one is stupid too. We sing about the my girls a vegetable one too. But he Said "And she's got real big hips" and we thought he said tits. OOH did pushups for that one.

 

[candela]

sweet95-

Whats your MOS? I was in Jax, NC also. I was a 6152 airframer ch-46's ofcourse. I left in July of last year though, EAS baby Anyhow I never could get my run time to 18:00 however I was always a 280+pft'er regardless of the time/date/sick...etc I ran the flight line every saturday (~10miles then way I went) but it never helped me.

ANyhow Im what we woudl call a lazy pig now Still in good shape, just not like I was when i was in. So whats the scoop out there? What squadron are you in, rank, time in grade...etc Not to flutter you with questions, just been a while since Ive talked to anyone from NC

 

[afox50x]

Yea you leave yellow bird alone!!!

Ahhh my JROTC days . . .

 

[luv2eclipse]

What's everyone's MOS and what branch.
I'm in the Guards. 12 Bravo-combat engineer.

 

[MCDGexx]

when I get into the corps I wanna be a in Force Recon if I remember correctly the MOS is 0321 or something of that, i'll have to look it up.

[edit] yea I just checked its 0321 for Reconnaissance Man. And Sweet95 your in 2nd force arn't you?[/edit]

 

[candela]

Goos luck dude Trust me, this is not for everyone. I was also 0311 for a while but changed MOS's. Recon. aint no fuggin joke, and if you want a heads up then : start busting your ass and working out now. Train yourself in swimming and running long distance, and also gain some more muscle (not that I know you but more is always better). Then when you get to boot, you HAVE to bust your ass in everything, mainly physical stuff! On top of this be ready for 1+ years of training to be rejected for something (even its its not yoru fault). Good luck,

PUKE

errrrrrrrr!


best pft was 100 situps 30 deadhang pullups and 22 min 3 mile
but im a big dude

well ateast the army is more fit than the chairforce they do a heart rate test WTF *shrugs* must be nice to sit in an ac tent while your in the field

i think i remember one time i was out in the field i got to sleep for 3 hrs it was great

 

[sweet95]

Yes im in Force Recon and it is 0321, Im a SGT, and been in for 4 years I just reenlisted to be an instructor for reservist in fort worth TX. I came in as an elec. engineier, then I lat moved two years ago, and yes its no joke! we do a lot of intense training but its alot of fun Ill be going to ranger school in aug I hope, that should be pretty cool. But if you want to get ready for it you need to be a great swimmer and fast runner and have a good head on your shoulders. CANDELA is right its not for everyone.

WTF?!?!? THIS chairbore ranger is a C-130 Crew Cheif... try changing a blown tire on a dirt strip in the middle of the Iraqi desert at 3am with morter rounds going off in the distance having other planes landing and taking off VIRTUALLY ON TOP of you... and if all THAT doesn't break your concentration, you have a WHINING ass bunch of parachute ornimants bitching cuz you aren't changing it fast enough, and THEY NEED TO MAKE THEIR DROP... but they won't even hand you a ####ing rag so that you can wipe the sweat out of your eyes, that is only making the sand stick to your eyelashes... but it is ok because the suppressive fire from the 4 .50 cals on either side of the runway is now making your ears ring so you can no longer HEAR the incessant bitching from a bunch of people that are so motivated to jump out of this plane that they try to lower it off the jack before the tire is even secured to the axle...



chairforce my ass...


/rant


*edit* there is a SEVERE lack of puncuation in the above rant. I typed it like I would have said it, without taking a breath, or pausing long enough to let anyone get a word in edgewise.

 

[luv2eclipse]

Does anyone else know any good cadences?

A yellow bird...............

with a yellow bill...

Personally, I like 'pity' but I don't know if you guys know that.

 

[XTurboSpYderX]

do you REALLY want cadances (which are actually repetative sets of beats from a percussion section (or a single snare) and tipically used for marching)? Or do you want jodies (which are the chants that you would use to keep a flight in step and motivated while you are running)? these are all AF jodies... but you can change a word or two and they can work for any of the services...




Official Det. 320 Jodie

What the Air Force done to me

Used to drive a Chevrolet
Now I'm marchin' everyday (Repeat)

They Say that in the Air Force:


They say that in the Air Force, the chicken's mighty fine
One jumped off the table and started marking time

Refrain:
Oh, Lord I wanna go
But they won't let me go
(group ends this line with home, stretched out over 8 paces, and a "Hey" on the right
foot to end the refrain)

They say that in the Air Force, the pay is mighty fine
They give you a hundred dollars and take back ninety-nine

They say that in the Air Force, the coffee's mighty fine
It looks like muddy water, and tastes like turpentine

They say that in the Air Force, the biscuits are mighty fine
One rolled off the table and killed a friend of mine

They say that in the Air Force, the meat is mighty fine
Last night we had ten puppies, this morning only nine

They say that in the Air Force, the shoes are mighty fine
You ask for size eleven, they give you size nine

They say that in the Air Force, the pancakes are mighty fine
You can try to chew them, but you're only wasting time

They say that in the Air Force, the bed's are mighty fine
But how the heck would I know, I've never slept in mine

They say that in the Air Force, the mail is so great
Today I got a letter dated 1948

They say that in the Air Force, the hours are just right
Start early in the morning and work on through the night

They say that in the Air Force, the buses are mighty fine
One went round the corner, and left three wheels behind

They say that in the Air Force, the coffee's mighty fine
It's good for cuts and bruises and tastes like iodine

They say that in the Air Force, the chicken's mighty fine
One jumped off the table and killed a friend of mine

They say that in the Air Force, the toilets are mighty fine
You flush them up at seven, they come back up at nine.

They say that in the Air Force, the tents are waterproof
You wake up in the morning and you're floating on the roof




'Till I Get On Back Home:


I don't know why I left
But I must've done wrong

Refrain:
And it won't be long
'Till I get on back home

Got a letter in the mail
Go to war or go to jail

Sat me in that barber's chair
Spun me around, I had no hair

Used to drive a Cadillac
Now I pack it on my back

Dress it right and cover down
Forty inches all around

Nine to the front and six to the rear
That's the way we do it here

Used to date a beauty queen
Now I date my M-16

Ain't no use in going back
Jody's got your Cadillac

Ain't no use in calling home
Jody's got your girl and gone

Ain't no use in feeling blue
Jody's got your sister too

They took away my gin and rum
Now I'm up before the sun

Mama Mama can't you see
What the Air Force's done for me

Mama Mama can't you see
This Air Force life is good for me



Let 'em Blow:

My recruiter said to me
Hey kid whatcha wanna be
I want a team that's tried and true
I wanna wear the Air Force blue

Refrain:
Let 'em blow let 'em blow
Let the four winds blow
Let 'em blow from east to west
The US Air Force is the best

The night was cold the ground was wet
They put us on a silver jet
And when the plane touched the ground
Air Force was all around

Refrain

We swore to God we would fight
For all we knew was right
God, Country, Family
We fought for our democracy

Refrain

And in the middle of the fight
I looked over to my right
There he lay on the ground
My buddy fell without a sound

Refrain

And when the battle it was won
Air For was number one
The the general bowed his head
For all the wounded and the dead

Refrain

Hold your head and hold it high
The Air Force is marching by


Somewhere There's a Woman:

Somewhere there's a woman
She's crying for her man
He's an Air Force pilot
He does the best he can

Refrain:
Don't cry for me
I don't need your sympathy
'Cause I'm an Air Force pilot
And that's all I want to be

Somewhere there's a mother
She's praying for her son
He's an Air Force pilot
And his work is never done

Refrain

Somewhere there's a father
His head is bowed in grief
His son was an Air Force pilot
And he died for his beliefs

Refrain

Somewhere there's a mother
Flag folded in her hands
Her son was an Air Force pilot
And he died for his land.


Running Jodies

Captain Jack:

Hey, hey, Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that bottle in my hand
I wanna be a drinking man
For Uncle Sam
That's what I am

Hey, hey, Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that rifle in my hand
I wanna be a shooting man
A drinking man
For Uncle Sam
That's what I am

Hey, hey, Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that knife in my hand
I wanna be a cutting man
a shooting man
a drinking man
For Uncle Sam
That's what I am

Hey, hey, Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that woman in my hand
I wanna be a loving man
a shooting man
a drinking man
For Uncle Sam
That's what I am

Hey, hey, Captain Jack
Meet me down by the railroad track
With that suitcase in my hand
I wanna be a traveling man
a loving man
a shooting man
a drinking man
For Uncle Sam
That's what I am



My Granny...:

When my granny was 91
She did PT just for fun

When my granny was 92
She did PT better than you

When my granny was 93
She did PT better than me

When my granny was 94
She did PT more and more

When my granny was 95
She did PT to stay alive

When my granny was 96
She kept on doing flutter-kicks

When my granny was 97
She up and died and went to heaven

She met St. Peter at the pearly gates
Said, "St. Peter, St. Peter, hope I'm not late

St. Peter said with a big ol' grin
"Get down granny, and knock out ten"

She replied with a big ol' smile
"Sorry, St. Peter, I'm on profile!"


Miles:

One mile
No sweat

Two miles
Better yet

Three miles
Gotta run

Four miles
To the sun



C-130:

C-130 rollin' down the strip
Det 320 gonna take a little trip

Mission Top Secret, destination unknown
We don't know if we're ever coming home

When my plane gets up so high
Airborne troopers gonna dance in the sky

Stand up, hook up, shuffle to the door
Jump right out and count to four

If my shute don't open wide
I got another one by my side

If that one should fail me too
Look out below, I'm a-coming through

If I die in a combat zone
Box me up and ship me home

Pin my ribbons upon my chest
Tell my mom I did my best



Sittin' on a Mountain Top:

Sittin' on a mountain top, beating my drum
Beat it so hard that he MP's come
I said MP, MP, don't arrest me
Arrest that leg behind the tree
He stole the whiskey, I stole the wine
All I ever do is double-time

Up in the morning 'fore the break of day
I don't like it, no way
Eat my breakfast too darn soon
Hungry as a hound dog, 'fore noon

Up in the morning at the break of day
Working so hard we never play
Running through the jungle where the sun don't shine
All I do is double time

Up in the morning and out of the rack
Grab my clothes and put them on my back
Running cross the desert in the shifting sand
Drill Sergeant, look, I'll give you a helping hand

Up in the morning with a whistle and a yell
I know that voice and I know it well
Drill Sergeant says you better hit the floor
And don't be walking going out the door

I like women and I like wine
But all I do is double time
Double time here and double time there
Man this life, it's the best anywhere.



These Boots Were Made for Walkin':

These boots were made for walkin'
And that's just what they'll do
If all you're doing is markin' time
They'll walk all over you

These guns were made for shootin'
And that's just what they'll do
Cause when they start a firin'
They'll drill a hole in you

This Air Force's trained for fightin'
And that's just what we'll do
Cause if you pick a fight with us
We'll drop some bombs on you


Wanna Be...:

I wanna be an Air Force pilot
I wanna fly an F-15
I wanna ride with the canopy open
Just to hear those commies scream

I wanna be a navigator
I wanna back seat to the show
I wanna be a navigator
Tell the pilots where to go

I wanna be a missileer
I wanna live in a deep dark hole
I wanna be a missileer
Nuke those commies till they glow.
