"We do more before 9am, than most people do all day." That was an old saying from the Army when I was in , around 25 years ago, but it still holds true.
I want to join the army to become a real man... I feel like I'm too weak, unresponsible, unreliable, too shy, too scared of talking to people etc..I feel army could change this..
Quick question bro I'm really interested in joining the army but I'm not really athletic can I still join the army or will I need to pass some sort of athletic test in order to join
Yea your going to have to do PT tests which basically measure your push ups , sit ups and 2 mile run. I would get in decent shape before joining. I wouldn't sweat it alot thought because basic training will put you in really good shape.
For those that enlist remember NO means NEW OPPORTUNITIES: YES means YOUR ENLISTMENT STOPS. Don’t tell them anything about medical history unless it still effects your everyday doing. Especially if you have ever been arrested as a juvenile don’t tell them because they can’t know unless you say something. It will stop your military career fast....
kidthndr2 yep haha, I got an important question. I get really dry skin on my face, would I be able to bring aquaphor to basic training? or will it be confiscated? I would hate to go through bt looking like that
I really want to join the Army as an officer, feel the itch to do it lol but I have suffered from depression in the past is this something that I could get help if it did come back?
Katt Lopez Do YOURSELF a favor and tell NOBODY about that. That's grounds for discharge with other than honorable documentation. Tell nobody about your personal problems, don't say anything to anyone, they can only use it against you. A great book on this subject is THE 48 LAWS OF POWER by Robert Greene. That book will teach you how to get people to hold you in the highest regard with all the respect you need coming to you.
I ship out for basic to Jackson in a few weeks and my run times are solid but I don't quite meet the requirements for pushups/situps will that be a problem in basic
Dav As long as you're in reasonably good shape you'll be ok. I don't know why some Drill Sergeants have such a fixation on running. I thought as long as you conduct yourself and act like a man you should be accepted and respected. That, to me, is what makes a soldier!
I can barley run a mile. I'm 18 about to graduate and I'm a female 6'1 center that plays basketball trying to play in college. I'm a built but at the same time a "fat person" weighed at 220 and kinda athletic. Just in case playing ball In college doesn't work. Will me not being to run the mile in certain time hold me back?
Janelle Niles Let me tell you this: in the past I thought I would never be able to run a mile, let alone 5 or 10 but I realized that I wasn't able to do it because my mind held me down. Our bodies are capable of training hard and running for hours, only our minds are hindering us. Since that realization I just kept telling myself over and over again. And guess who joined the army and can easily run 5 or even 10 miles now? You can do it too!
Janelle Niles pretty much basic training will help you get more physically fit. A lot of people end up losing 20-40 pounds if they are on the heavy side. Me personally my run with from 18 min 2mi to a 14 min.
Janelle Niles you will struggle...you will not get better during basic believe me...the ones that get better physically are the ones already in shape. you have to show up to basic in relatively good shape. if you can barely run a mile then you will be DQd
Lork Lorkman depends where you go tbh. I know at least two of the basic locations had programs for people to get in better shape before going down range or before being allowed to graduate.
I'm meeting with a recruiter Monday (November 5th,2018). I have long term goals. I look mostly at the benefits and starting my own business. I do want to be more disciplined and stronger, mentally and physically. I want to grow in the army ranks and be a top dog. I have subscribed to your channel but hopefully we can meet one day. I wish to expand more in every possible way.
Army it is a job but also a profession one doesn't countret fit the other if it's a profession then it hast to be a job if it's a job the is not necessarily a profession
Pimpishone 24 hours x 60 minutes (not assuming you sleep) 500 pushups + 400 sit ups = 900 bits of exercise 1440 minutes in a day / 900 bits of exercise = 1.6 Pushups or sit ups every minute. Again, not including your sleep. Lets lower it down to 24 hours - 8 sleeping hours. 16h x 60m = 960m / 900 = 1 pushup or situp every minute. Yeah okay buddy lol.
Thank you so much for sharing this. I'm active duty, waiting to get a Class slot, applied about a month ago. Your videos are really motivating and informative.
I always wanted to join but people tell my I shouldn’t because my Name is Mohamed and they said they harass Muslims is that true? I gained a lot lot of fat but I can loose it I have a black belt 10 years of Viber Vo dao so I can catch up physically
I am 18 at the moment and I'm debating on going into the army, I would really like to but I'm not as fit at the moment and I don't want that to be a problem, I know I should start getting fit immediately but is there any other advice I could get?
I’m 13 years old a female 5,6? Lol but, I’m not sure I’m going through this little cycle do I want to be a writer artist famous RUclipsr like pewdiepie or markipliar a flight intendant there are so many things mostly these jobs I’m stuck on right now): but it seems theres a lot of working out and socializing involved in the military.. Im still learning..
I spent 11 years in the Army. I was much further than this guy and I did most of the same training and more. Don’t do it unless you have a death wish, college debt or are poor.
kidthndr2 what do you mean by unfounded results? I’ve never had anyone in the military disagree with me. Unless they were in the af but that’s different.
I'm 15 and tbh I'm tired of everything and everyone my parents are saying I'm a total fuck up and Tbh i feel like the army fits for me what than to defend your country and I would probably get respected by my parents
This is a good video great channel I’m subscribing I went to my recruiter yesterday just have to finish up my GED Test and take my ASAVB and I’ll be on my way #ArmyStrong 💪
Hi my name is Bobson sama I want to joined the U.S army,I need helps Sir. I am a Sierra leonean by Nationally.Sir i work for U.S Army in Iraq 2005 to 2010 ESS KBR First Kuwaiti company SABRE And TORRES Security Specialist operation Iraq freedom.presents now I works for G4S SECURITY in Freetown.
My last son is graduating on May 2021 and he wants to go to college as an engineer he was to do engineering in the military what job did you say about engineering you didn't like the navy
i think getting up at 4:45 would be the hardest part of joining the army for me. i kind of regret not joining the military though, having a stable job being a major perk though. im a contractor so it's not unusual for me to not even know if I'll have a job in a week or two. I always have work to do but since im an independent contractor i might not always get paying work if that makes sense.
Do whatever it takes, man. I'm 17 and after I take my ASVAB in October I'm gonna make my final decision about which branch to join. Also, even if you don't join, getting into physical fitness will be one of the best things you ever do.
@@freshcrypto1596 It's going great. My ASVAB got pushed back and I'm waiting on my results right now. I'm hoping to get an Op40 contract and go to RASP.
At my new job (which is a really good job) my boss keeps telling me to join because he did and he tells me all the ups about it like not having to put a down payment on a house or how they pay for you school (which I regret not going to college), but I feel like it’s hard for me to want to because I have a girlfriend. How can I enlist and still come back to the life I have?
I have many questions if you don’t mind answering! I am 19 years old currently I am in college, and I am contemplating in life on what I wanna do. I am currently done w. my first year in college but I’m so lost on what I wanna be in life I am afraid to be unsuccessful.. just want to be stable w/ my life and secure a future for my self. But I’ve always wanted to join the army serve my country and experience new things, from your knowledge how long do be usually last?
I naturally wake up early actually so if i joined thats no problem lol my career is in massage therapy and im into healing so im not sure what i would do in the military altho the airforce sounds interesting. Joining would be backup plan for me. Im currently 31 yrs old.
Hey I have a question. I have been interested in joining the army. Can I leave after a few years or is it for life until you like, break a limb or something? You seem to say you can leave but people say you can't. Idk.
Hey man, I'm about to join as an interior electrician. What kind of OJT credentials, or trade apprenticeships/courses/programs do you think I could take while in that could help polish my resume for a future civilian trade career once I'm ETS'ed? Any advice would definitely be appreciated! Also, thank you for serving!
Question : what happens if someone enlist in the army and is hypothetically speaking in a unit that is demanding such as the 75th andafter a year or two you get diagnosed with hypothyroidism. What happens? To they discharge you, make you into a janiter!? Seriously what happens?
I would love to join the army but I'm from the Caribbean "Dominica" I want to badly ! I was a cadet marine for 6 years ! I think I'm a dedicatedperson just want to join one day!!! any help?
Yo bro I got a question about PT test. So I'm going to ask how many you take open arriving at basic and which one is the most important?? Or do they let you improve then record the last one? And benefits of scoring a 290+ on the PT?@kidthndr2
I am glad that I did my research before I join active duty Army because you don't make that much money no matter how many lies I heard I looked it up for myself yes the benefits are good and a money is straight but I took advantage of the reserve benefits that allowed me to go to school and the same job that I have in this civilian world I make three times more than the military and I still get my weekend drill pay......So I really don't understand why people sign their life away like that...... when you can take advantage of the reserve component of the army we wear the same uniform have the same ID get a same educational benefit so why would you want to join active duty
Tyler Durden same dude. People ask me like 10 times a day “what are you going to school for when you get older” and I just can’t figure out what I want. I’m seriously considering going active army for the smallest amount of time they offer. I just don’t know what I’ll do when that ends though, like do I have to go back to school? Or start college? I’m 17 btw
Thank you for the reply, although about losing all your freedom, arnt you free once your contract ends. I honestly wanted to just to become a stronger person and maybe use that experience to become a security’s contracter or something. I don’t know though, it sounds like a really big commitment the more and more I look into it. I’ll go check that out though.
What should I join as? Like an army reserve or active duty? Because I want to be an FBI and also what area of interest do I choose in the army? Which one of the first two choices do I choose and which area of interest do I choose so I can be able to finish and go to college so then I can get my degree to join the FBI?
How hard is it for an enlisted member to become an officer through OCS? If youre an active duty enlisted member how do you get your degree for the Officer program?
You got to school while your in. I dont think its hard to drop a packet, however getting a degree on your spare time might choose to be a tad challenging.
Hey man could you explain enlistment bonuses? My local recruiter mentions it every time I speak with him but I've heard you are required to pay it back later.
Vo Uub It's going to be shocking being bossed around by sergeants over ten years younger than you are. And with the age, I don't care what good of shape you're in, the ruck marches and the constantly daily group PT (which includes ruck marches and even running with logs) are going to tear down your body. You can do Army reserves or guard, but you might really want to think twice about doing Army on active duty, especially at that age.
My plan is to join the army when I graduate high school, I’m not too good with exercises like I’m bad at running and I don’t have much upper body strength, what should I do to help me get better with both and when do u think I should start? It’s ok if U don’t really know I was just wondering
Push ups, dips and if you run in your neighborhood you can try running from pole to pole. Example run the distance from 1 light pole to the next then walk 2 light poles Hope that helps.
You mentioned rank? What does that mean? How many ranks are there? And in order to be a top rank does that mean like 1st place out of all the others or rank like I’m passing everything and I’m getting to the next level then the next and so on
This is the first video I've seen by you, you're awesome. I'm almost 17 and I want to join the Army at 19 because that's when I'll get my high school diploma. If I join the "Delayed Entry Program" will I immediately be shipped off to basic training afterwards? Is there usually a long wait to get shipped off to basic training? Thank you and awesome video, I'll be watching more of these :)
So if you were to join DEP you would just wait untill your ship date came up. Thats really all it is , your just waiting to ship. There usually isn't a long wait though.
"We do more before 9am, than most people do all day." That was an old saying from the Army when I was in , around 25 years ago, but it still holds true.
Very true! Thanks for your service.
Hell yea hlad I'm in the process of enlisting 👍
FACTS! We’re very productive in the AM.
Thank you for your service! That's a great phrase.

If you're serious, you might be in for a rude awakening. You may be treated like a little kid in the Army for a long time.
Same
Dont make this your reason to join
@@austinvelasco587 why's that?
Child Of The Grave 1970 join the military to serve your country not because your worthless and want to be fit.
Quick question bro I'm really interested in joining the army but I'm not really athletic can I still join the army or will I need to pass some sort of athletic test in order to join
Daddy Jadon you should try to get a little in shape but when you join they whip you into shape
Yea your going to have to do PT tests which basically measure your push ups , sit ups and 2 mile run. I would get in decent shape before joining. I wouldn't sweat it alot thought because basic training will put you in really good shape.
#1. The drill sergeants wouldn't let me pop at basic....
Daniel Rodriguez fml hahaha we had dance and rapping battles in the barracks it was hilarious
Hopefully your channel grows. There's so many popular enlisted channels but a lot of people are interested in the officer side of things.
Brian Harprashad thanks me to
you sound like the youtuber Austin Dunham. He was also in the military.
Youre definetly right!!!

I’m planning on going to the military as soon as I graduate high school.
Thank you for your Service 😢🙏
Bruhhh this pumps me up for joining even more than i already am
favorite part I'm looking forward to is getting paid to work out haha! thanks for the great vids bro.
Atleast you got something to worry about thats more than the rest of them.
kidthndr2 yep haha, I got an important question. I get really dry skin on my face, would I be able to bring aquaphor to basic training? or will it be confiscated? I would hate to go through bt looking like that
or does the PX sell face products like that?
Alex 99 you’re able to bring lotion as long as it’s not scented. it’d be best it it was medicated
I am in boarding school and everyday we wake up at 4 :00 in the morning
I really want to join the Army as an officer, feel the itch to do it lol but I have suffered from depression in the past is this something that I could get help if it did come back?
There are all types of programs in the ARMY to help with that . Of Course!

Don't worry. You probably know by now that you will get lots of practice. Drive on!
Dav what’s your run times and how many pushups, sit-ups do you do and how many are you required to do

Are u a recruiter or something? You are just stating good things about the Army.
Hmmmmm. I should probably be a recruiter than.
When you are in the military your not allowed speak bad of the military you can get in trouble. When he leaves he can say whatever he wants.
@@zheyuezhao456 anyone's can google what i said and confirm! Even Kyle Gott confirmed this. IF THIS FACT bothers you write a letter to Congress.
When should someone start "training/preparing" for basic training
If I could do it over again, I would start a month a away.
You should start training immediately do at least 500 pushups a day and 400 sit ups a day I mean their is 24hours a day so it can be done.
Pimpishone
24 hours x 60 minutes (not assuming you sleep) 500 pushups + 400 sit ups = 900 bits of exercise 1440 minutes in a day / 900 bits of exercise = 1.6 Pushups or sit ups every minute.
Again, not including your sleep. Lets lower it down to 24 hours - 8 sleeping hours.
16h x 60m = 960m / 900 = 1 pushup or situp every minute.

1. Exercise, get fit, or the experience will be worse than it has to be! People get held over in reception hell if they don't pass the pt tests.

I’m seriously considering going active army for the smallest amount of time they offer. I just don’t know what I’ll do when that ends though, like do I have to go back to school? Or start college? I’m 17 btw
Thank you for the reply, although about losing all your freedom, arnt you free once your contract ends. I honestly wanted to just to become a stronger person and maybe use that experience to become a security’s contracter or something. I don’t know though, it sounds like a really big commitment the more and more I look into it. I’ll go check that out though.
Serious question. Can I join the army with 23 degree scoliosis??
Unsure about that.
@@kidthndr2 like these civilians be knowing exactly what they want😂
What should I join as? Like an army reserve or active duty? Because I want to be an FBI and also what area of interest do I choose in the army? Which one of the first two choices do I choose and which area of interest do I choose so I can be able to finish and go to college so then I can get my degree to join the FBI?
I don't know much about the FBI
Bs
I'm not joining the army anytime soon but nice video!
Thank you
How hard is it for an enlisted member to become an officer through OCS? If youre an active duty enlisted member how do you get your degree for the Officer program?
You got to school while your in. I dont think its hard to drop a packet, however getting a degree on your spare time might choose to be a tad challenging.
Oh I thought BTS army..whoops
Hey man could you explain enlistment bonuses? My local recruiter mentions it every time I speak with him but I've heard you are required to pay it back later.
Sure I will tackle that in a later video
Prior Service AF Vet here....I may try Army at age 37. Any thoughts besides the obvious age factor?
Vo Uub
It's going to be shocking being bossed around by sergeants over ten years younger than you are. And with the age, I don't care what good of shape you're in, the ruck marches and the constantly daily group PT (which includes ruck marches and even running with logs) are going to tear down your body. You can do Army reserves or guard, but you might really want to think twice about doing Army on active duty, especially at that age.
I'm actually joining the Army in a week that's when everything will be processed through! I'm wondering what to start off with
Start off with?
Appreciate the info bro!
Anytime!
My plan is to join the army when I graduate high school, I’m not too good with exercises like I’m bad at running and I don’t have much upper body strength, what should I do to help me get better with both and when do u think I should start? It’s ok if U don’t really know I was just wondering
I would try playing a sport! that is the best way since your in HS even if its just a intramural sport!
Push ups, dips and if you run in your neighborhood you can try running from pole to pole. Example run the distance from 1 light pole to the next then walk 2 light poles
Hope that helps.
When I grow up I’m thinking about being in the US Army full time does anyone have advice
iXSerpent YT Talk to a recruiter and Get through basic training
You mentioned rank? What does that mean? How many ranks are there? And in order to be a top rank does that mean like 1st place out of all the others or rank like I’m passing everything and I’m getting to the next level then the next and so on
Thats alot of questions lol You could have googled some of that.
kidthndr2 I did 😅thank you
I don’t know if this is how it works, but I just hate the feeling that I will get shot if I join. Like what if we go to war.
Most people at some point will deploy from a supply sgt to a cook to jag personnel.
Wats the chance of getting killed in the military
Just get straight to the point... damn
I subscribed as soon as you said nuggets
is life boring in the army??
This is the first video I've seen by you, you're awesome. I'm almost 17 and I want to join the Army at 19 because that's when I'll get my high school diploma. If I join the "Delayed Entry Program" will I immediately be shipped off to basic training afterwards? Is there usually a long wait to get shipped off to basic training? Thank you and awesome video, I'll be watching more of these :)
So if you were to join DEP you would just wait untill your ship date came up. Thats really all it is , your just waiting to ship. There usually isn't a long wait though.
Ok thank you
Did you do it?
Im 19 and joining the army
Your lucky at least you can join
i thought it was the "ARMY" (bts)
i am from greece what is needed for me in order to join?
Im not sure about foreign people, I know you have to do alot more for you to join though.
E Ramirez yes and it makes it easier to get full citizenship
Mazda Rx8 a miracle
There's always the French army
He's probably not from Greece so he most likely won't know
If I knew how much walking we did I'd have joined the navy.
hahahahahahahahahhahah very true!!!!
This was really good thank you for sharing this video, I'm 18 and planning to join the army and you inspired me even more to do that :)
ayo leaky how’d it go
How’s it going
God speed Sir. Ill see you out there, hopefully.
Looking forward to it.
Just a quick question I'm joining the Army and I ship out in a little, just wondering if you can get any leave time between basic and AIT?
Wade McEachern naw, unfortunately not
kidthndr2 aw damn ok thank you though
No prob
No leave in between the two however if you begin basic or ait in November/December you will be allotted leave for Christmas exodus.
What are the chances of getting in straight out of school?
