Bruh this intro gets me every time 😂 Getting ready for MEPS means you'll also be getting ready for Air Force PT. Don't worry, we've got you covered, check out the PT requirements here: www.airmanvision.com/bmt#air-force-pt-test
Hey y’all!! I finally made it through meps!! I watched this video so many times to get ready for the “ underwear Olympics” and was so sad to find out that back in March ‘22 they don’t have you do it as one big group. It’s one on one with the doctor. Thank y’all so much for your videos!!
I just went today and didn’t do a lot of the movements in this video! No walking on knee or slam the knee on the ground, And yes! I was expecting to do it in a big group but is one on one
I came back from MEPS today and I could say the same thing. Just one on one with the doctor in a small room. I barely even did the duck walk and he just had me stand and hop on each leg twice, nothing else. I had a very easy process thankfully.
@@thiagogregory1honestly, it depends if they’re satisfied. It’s usually about 5-6 ft turn around and go back. I had to do it so many times I couldn’t bc my legs were burning. Doc passed me but said I need to work on it before I go to MEPs, this was like a mini meps.
I love her direction I haven’t found a good video yet but hers everybody want to talk and not show like how is that helping anyone thank you for showing me the right way got to go to meps end of the month I am going to the NAVY ACTIVE DUTY and this video got me less stress now Thanks
Wow best of luck on your military journey! This video does seem to be very helpful! I’m in the process of joining the Air Force and so ready to get MEPS over with!
i went thru meps way back in 1978 took me two times before i got in and was in the navy and then served in the army national guard wish i had the internet and these videos when i joined. good luck to all of you that are now in this process.
I did this in 2015 when I enlisted in the Marines, about to do it again next week as I reenlist in the Army. Gonna be an interesting dejavu experience for sure. Staying at the SAME hotel and everything...
Headed to the MEPS hotel this upcoming Sunday and have MEPS on Monday. So super nervous, my knees pop like yours and I’m so worried. Thank you for the trick!
@@carlamartinez9095 I passed, ending up swearing in on May 10th. And honestly? Better than I expected. It did take all day of course BUT, it goes by sort of fast when you’re not thinking about it. There was no particular order that we did anything in. (I went to the Dallas MEPS) just be honest and straightforward, make sure you follow directions (they love that lol, definitely utilize ma’am and sir) they changed a lot of things up so a few things mentioned in the video, didn’t happen for me, but then again every MEPS location is different so you might encounter some things that I didn’t. If you drove or getting dropped off, make sure you’re first in line, trust me. If you’re riding the shuttle, sit as close to the front as you can so you sorta be in the front, hope this helps!
When I bend down on my knees my left knee Pops and cracked 85# of the time. I’ve been a laborer all my life. It doesn’t hurt. I went through all the exercises with you as you did it I can hear my knee crack and pop when I do it, with the duck walk, I’m gonna have to practice because I’ve never did it before but with the squat and drop and stay back up, that’s where you can here crackle. I’ve been exercising and trying to help with it but I hope I don’t get disqualified
@@benasscream3783 did they say anything about the pops? My knees have popped since I was a little kid and I’m so worried about that calling attention to myself 😂
@@renee3210 a tad improvement. I can squat a little longer than before, just balance is the issue right now. I’ll get it accomplished! Thank you for asking!
I failed it to ,went back 2 more time and they wouldn't take me. And from that day any hope of being in the military was completely gone. Its been down hill scents .
The worst part is when they have you walk on your knees. It’s painful 😣. Another thing is the smell. It smelled horrible in the room. Afterwards I felt dirty. Some of those people are nasty 🤢
I wish more people would come back and tell us how they did lol! This was an excellent video! I have to lose only 10 more pounds so I can be in my weight class and officially be recruited! I’ve already taken the Picat and scored an 85 and verified already! So once I get my weight down, MEPS will be my next stop! ✈️
I’ll be going to the MEPS hotel later today at 1, can’t fall asleep because I’m nervous so I’m watching RUclips videos. Recruiter says I’ve just got to suck in my stomach a little and I’ll be fine
@@sev417hello Aww I hope Meps went well for you! You got this! If you weren’t nervous, then something is definitely wrong! I’m nervous since I lost the weight I needed and just have to weigh in with my recruiter and get setup for meps since I’ve already taken the Picat. I’m excited
@@sev417hello That’s great! That camp changes people’s lives! Just stay away from the greasy foods they have in the cafe and you will do fine! Congratulations and best of luck to you! Thank you for your service in advance! 🙏🏾😊
We had 35-40 boys in white underwear duck-walking 1 behind another in rows, staying in same speed. Very awkward physical event, as it's not a thing guys do/talk about. Girls talk about everything, espec in public bathrooms & they don't care about how odd a duckwalk of 6 females (u said) is done together. 17-19 yo guys are worried about different things like being embarrassed by military & medical staff walking like ducks. (Me & my peers got into boxers & fancier underwear in college/during ANG svs concurrently).
Do you do that to walk behind cover or why is the military obsessed with duck walking? We sometimes do that in grappling to warm up the legs for shooting.
Hello! I am going to meps in two weeks, is there anything more difficult than what’s covered in the video? What are they looking for? Also, I heard there’s a section with weights? What are they looking for? And are there any other medical examinations? Thank you so much!
Well meps is only just a medical examination. There isn’t really any physical strength and stamina tests, but I would definitely advise you to prepare your body physically. They will take your weight and measurements and they need to be under or over a certain limit. And definitely condition yourself before getting to basic training
I didn't know what it does so I asked the doc to show me - he looked at me and laughed and said, "I passed once, I'm not doing it again." He then pulled up your video and showed me what he wanted. HAA! Heads up tho!! They make you walk like that all the way across the room, not just a few forward and back. Be ready for that! And he's not joking - they make you do it in nothing but your skivvies because they're watching for your spine, your legs, so many things.
*Has to do windshield wipers* me: *does Jazz hands* 😂😂😂 Seriously tho, after 6 years and going from wanting to join the Air Force to the Marine Corps, I GO TO MEPS WEDNESDAY FOR MY PHYSICAL!! Thank you for the, (im quite sure for both females and males) updated underwear olympics!
Have you made a video on flight MED? I feel like that would help a lot of people in the future so others don’t get DQ from their job or told to ELS like they did with me
Nice job MaKenna! I'm sure this will help do many tremendously!! Maybe you should go in to be a Trainer!? 😉👍😁 I have no worries that you're going to do well because you're a "Prepper"!!
I may do that, but it's so short! you go in, they will do a quick look at your eyes, mouth and ears. Then for females the doctor will look at your breasts and genitals to make sure there are no abnormalities. It takes seconds. then you are done and the doctor will say congrats and give you your papers and you're done. I do talk about the entire day 2 and the doctor process in my MEPS Day 2 video ruclips.net/video/sEuMgxGRMEU/видео.html
Thank you for your fantastic video!really beneficial. Do you think cracking and popping knees and joints generally will be a problem? I am very stressed even I do not have any pain and can do every such movements in a very good way.
@@dluke3328 Don’t let them crack at meps, sometimes cracking and popping can be due to an underlying condition. Try to stretch as much as you can. Best of luck!
Thank you for your information really great ! I have crack in my knees, does it make me fail even I have no pain and no problem with my knees, is that bad.
I got ACL surgery last year so I’m not sure if I’ll be able to do the workouts that put stress on my knee ... I would really like to join the Air Force though 😒😔
Once you think you're healed, start practicing little by little to see how it is for you that is something that you will have to disclose to your recruiter to see how to move forward!
Give it time to heal and do everthing right with and take your time in rehab, DONT RUSH IT! Rehab is for you at your pace, only you will know when youre good! Believe in yourself, give everything you have (right now within your limits) never settle for less, never make excuses, if you fail at something get up and try again the next day!
@@stephanienilsen4585 i appreciate you responding and letting me know mam! i actually just went to meps on tuesday and it wasn't anywhere near as bad as i thought it would be leaving. leaving for basic next month : )
Only thing I failed during the process was the 1 exercise from curled toes straight up only thing beat myself up the whole day I keep practicing so before I ship I can hopefully do it but nothing
This is going to sound weird but I can’t do the standing up from your knees using only my toes exercise on tile floor. I can do it literally on any other flooring or concrete but I can’t do it on tile 😂
Such an informative video thank you! Hopefully I go to MEPS next month! But I did notice my knees started popping as well when I did the knee exercises 😂 is this a major concern they have? Or something they should brush off?
I can do all of this except my elbow stuff. I have NPS and my elbows have less flexibility I’m hoping I can still get it. Have meps Tuesday and Wednesday
I have a MEPS appointment two days from now and I was somewhat nervous about it, but now I think a lot of my worries have been cleared. Any other tips for people who have their joints pop though? Also thanks for the video! It was really helpful.
No, stretch marks are normal. If you have large ones, just mark it down on the "tattoo, birthmark, scar" paper that you will get and you will just mark the area of the body its on and write "stretch mark"
I got DQ for that 8 years ago , I had to get my toes checked , they said it was something in the big toe bone but I got waiver for it with x-ray from a foot specialist and got it approved.
For some reason tho he told me to strip down to my underwear the second I went into the room so I was sitting there answering questions in my underwear lmao
I have a slight hand tremor when i open my hand up and extend my fingers, but I have no trouble picking things up, etc. Do they check for tremors or are they primarily looking for functionality and to see if you can use your hands with no problem?
Bruh this intro gets me every time 😂

you should be fine!! Just do what I do and try to pop them before the dr comes in the room, just so your don't draw attention, but you will be good!
How did it go?
i have a little bit of a limp so the power walk is gonna catch me for sure.
So where do you secure your wallet, keys, etc?
I can do all of this except my elbow stuff. I have NPS and my elbows have less flexibility I’m hoping I can still get it. Have meps Tuesday and Wednesday
Should I note all of my scars I have even if they are small ones? Is it bad if I don’t note the small ones
Great vid!!
thank you!

I have a MEPS appointment two days from now and I was somewhat nervous about it, but now I think a lot of my worries have been cleared. Any other tips for people who have their joints pop though? Also thanks for the video! It was really helpful.
Can you share your experience with us?
What happened I have joint pops ?? I have meps upcoming Friday and I’m scared asf
@@beulahbrown6637 how was it?
@@beulahbrown6637 How was it? PLEASE COME BACK!
@@thiagogregory1 it wasn’t bad honestly
So question what if you have very noticeable scares from self harm? Will they look at you different because you’ve already been cleared to that point
Just put a tattoo over it
When doing the duck walk.
Is your weight going completely going onto your leg? Not sure if I am making sense.
yes, you are using your legs to balance your weight, you can't use your hands to help your balance
Thank you for this!
I just saw your video but I was wondering do they care about stretch marks?? Like, really big and can be easily seen stretch marks??
No, stretch marks are normal. If you have large ones, just mark it down on the "tattoo, birthmark, scar" paper that you will get and you will just mark the area of the body its on and write "stretch mark"
I am struggling with the workout at 9:45 any tips?
I got DQ for that 8 years ago , I had to get my toes checked , they said it was something in the big toe bone but I got waiver for it with x-ray from a foot specialist and got it approved.
I'm flatfooted, should I get a waiver no or is that after medical finds it
I love this and I did good excited!!
My daughter is 17 yrs old she’s in meps RN 😑
Do they ask for your medical history before or after the 1 on 1 physical?
Before for me
For some reason tho he told me to strip down to my underwear the second I went into the room so I was sitting there answering questions in my underwear lmao
We had to do it buck naked in a huge room full of guys 🤣🤣
I have a slight hand tremor when i open my hand up and extend my fingers, but I have no trouble picking things up, etc. Do they check for tremors or are they primarily looking for functionality and to see if you can use your hands with no problem?
Functionality, have confidence when doing the medical procedures. If you can copy what everyone else is doing for a few minutes you'll be good
Which branch btw
@@The_Texas_Welder I appreciate it, thanks. Im shooting for Air Force - WV Air National Guard.
Now why does it tingle when I do it?
Are you going to film anything on studying for the ASVAB?
yes! I actually did, but have to reshoot because my phone stopped recording and I didn't realize!! :((
Literally walked in without studying for my ASVAB. Got a 70+. 🤷♂️
@@AirmanVision no worries! I was just curious :)
@@Thatbasedcat that is great!! MY husband (Kyle) didn't study and got an 82! Everyone is different and not everyone has to. Congrats!!
