| Centurion | I don't know if this will help you much, but here is my weekly workout plan: My workout plan as follows, the excercises I do change every so often Monday: Cardio, minimum 20 minutes. Bench Press Incline dumbell fly cable press overhead extension kick backs dips Tuesday: Cardio, minimum 20 minutes, if I have the time Wednsday Cardio - 20 min or more Squats Lunges Leg press Leg extension/curl military press, dumbell front raises lateral raise bent over raise shrugs Thursday - off. Friday - Cardio at least 20 min Lat pulldown bent over row T bar Row Hyperextension Preacher curl isolated unilateral bicep curls 15 pushups (modified or regular) and 15-20 reps of an ab workout (crunches, sit ups, supine bicycle, leg raises, hello dollys, etc.) between each set of the above back/bicep excercises. My cardio is 99% of the time running, although every so often I will swim for half an hour or so, just to change things up a bit. |

| Milites Gregarius | I wouldn’t worry so much about the “strengthening up” part. Keep in mind that not everyone in your class will be able to make it through Ranger School the first day! Your instructors expect this. They have a proven plan to gradually get you in shape. I would recommend that you keep running and running and run some more. However, if you insist on being in the best shape of your life before you arrive at boot camp, just stick to the basics. By doing pushups, sit-ups and pull-ups, you will achieve your desired goal. The most important thing is get prepared mentally!

| Tribuni Angusticlavii | To strengthen up for the military you probably want to do a lot of body weight lifting- push ups, pull ups/ chin ups, crunches, flutter kicks(lotsa those!), bends and thrusts(not too many of those And do your good mornings! |
