    Still watching the video, but as a U.S. Marine, I'd like to point out that chalk or any other kind of supports on the pull ups aren't allowed. Still good though, you guys obviously have more weight on you than the average person though so anyone who faults you for your low pull ups or run time is ignorant.
    For the crunches, you both forget the most effective technique for success: having your partner count by 2s (1,2,4,6,9,10,12,13,15, etc...)
    Good job on the run though boys. I know overweight, cigarette smoking, alcoholic Marines who can beat that easily, but 3 miles is a bitch in itself, and theres not many people who can complete it.
    It's interesting to see bodybuilders who I follow (Mike, I watch a lot of your content, good stuff) step into my world for a bit, and I think you guys did an awesome job!

      @@mattwood1225 Most run times aren't spectacular either way, and when you get to boot camp you'll be running all the time anywa, so I would work on your pull ups and crunches. It's easier to progress with those exercises and easier to max out your points in each category. That being said, if you have time for it, definitely work in running too. There's no reason you shouldn't be able to improve all three at the same time, but I'm saying you're closer to maxing out with pull ups and crunches. And being able to max out your pull ups gets you respect with the drill instructors and the other recruits. Now that also means they could put you as guide or squad leader and fuck with you more, but at least it puts you in prospects for honor graduate. Just depends how far you wanna progress in this gun club.

      I remember when I was in, some of the best runners ate burritos and smoked cigarettes the morning of and ran 17s... these guys definitely wasted energy slowing their descent during the pullups and crunches... pullups work better than chin ups to max imo... also if they had a bigger belly they wouldn't have to move as far for crunches. I've always been a crappy runner, usually coming in last at 23 minutes... so..... I feel good about myself🤣

      Support isn't allowed, but when I ran my final PFT (long ago... enough that' I'm not confident it hasn't changed), a perfect score was 20 pull ups, not 23. And you are allowed to switch grips too, as long as you don't come off the bar. So if you're arms are worn out, you can get a few more from those fresh back muscles.

    To put the run in perspective:
    18 minutes/3 miles = 6min/mile = most varsity high school cross country teams
    14-15min/3mi = 4:40-5:00min/mile = elite marathoners (over 26.2 miles)
    12:37min/5K (3.1miles) = men's world 5K record
    Most 5K races (3.1 miles) for amateur runners finish in 18-35 minutes. Your time of 26:24 corresponds to an 8:48min/mi pace, which is respectable for an "average" runner and very respectable for two guys who don't run! Great job!

    EDIT: Cardio is easily the most important aspect of a Marines physical training, which is why we run all the damn time. It sucks, and most of us hate it, but were damn good at it. I only ran over 19:00 twice in 5 years. Once in basic training on a broken foot 21:37, and the other 5 months later 19:52. The fastest guy I ever personally trained with ran a 16:23.

    I went through USMC boot camp in 1988. I think it was like this for the scoring: Pull ups 5 to pass and 20 for perfect score; sit ups (not exactly crunches) hands behind the head elbow in front and elbows touch the knees if I remember correctly, I can't remember how many to pass, maybe 35 and I think maybe 60, or 80, for perfect score and I think it was maybe 2 minutes; running was 3 miles with 24 minutes to pass and 18 for perfect score. This did not change the whole time I was in until 1992. Pull ups were my weak point and always kept me from getting a perfect PFT (Physical Fitness Test) score. Great video and fun to watch.

    advice from a marine trainee:
    pull-ups-
    when u get ur chin above the bar, just drop to dead hang. u are using a lot of extra energy controlling ur drop.
    dont stop, just go. if u stop u will get more tired
    if u think u can't get any more pull ups with ur grip in the one direction then switch grips. at boot camp they will have u switch grips if u don't think u can do more
    I have to say that i am happy to see that u did ur research on the crunches because they aren't normal crunches
    crunches-
    so the minimum for crunches is 55 to pass not 70
    how u were holding his legs is exactly how u have to hold others legs for crunches in the marines
    when doing crunches dont stop, u will get even more tired if u stop
    u both actually passed the crunches and the pullups
    3 mile run-
    let me say first that u have to finish a 1.5 miles in 13 minutes and 30 seconds for men and women have to finish 1.5 miles in 14 minutes and 30 seconds
    besides what i mentianed u guys both passed and did a fairly great job

    I recorded a perfect 300 pft score once in my 4 years in. I was extremely proud of that, it isn't easy at all. The 3 mile run I ended with 17:59, I crossed the finish line, walked 4 steps to my left where the grass was and proceeded to throw up for the next couple minutes, great times 😆

      Bro that’s crazy insane. The best 3 mile time I got was a 19:45 with 26 pull-ups (only county 20 but I did 6 more because they it to your mol account) and 100 crunches.

    Us infantry guys had to do a combat fitness test directly after the standard PFT. It consisted of a 15 meter buddy drag, 15 meter low craw, landing a grenade toss on a target, as many ammo can above the head lifts you could do in a minute and then a 100 meter sprint. And.... we had to do it all in full kit, also our unit required we had our rifles on us the whole time. So much painful fun!!

    For the crunches a tip is don’t stop until you absolutely have to, and get your butt as close to the person holding your legs. Keep the speed and never stop. I currently can do 150 crunches, sad part I can only do 11 pull ups but a trick for that is when you drop use that momentum to get back up, you’ll be good.

    What kicked my arse on the Required Fitness Level test on basic training in the NZ Army was that we did the run before the crunches. I did not expect the run to have messed up my abs. I passed the second RFL on Basic.

    Do a Marine Corps CFT at some point!!! You guys did great, especially for doing it without training for those specific events. Marines are notorious for having some of the worst health habits yet somehow have the ability to max out a PFT/ CFT. There's people that smoke half a pack before the PFT and sweat alcohol during it. We pass our fitness tests because there's a lot of little thing we do to improve our scores. Not that you're ever going to do a USMC PFT again but. . .
    Pull ups: You can't come down from the bar or use the sides for support, but you are allowed to switch grip when you want. Relax your muscles on the decent; your muscles get more tired quicker if you're using them to come down instead of doing a controlled drop. Also tilt your head backwards and don't go up as high. You just need to get your chin over the bar, not your whole head.
    Crunches: One thing I do is the same as the pull-ups; relax your abdomen on the decline. I don't use any energy coming down so I can do a lot more reps a lot faster. I max out with half a minute to spare and look around at all the struggling males. And, if it makes you feel better, not a single one of Mike's crunches would've counted. His arms where raised off of his body and to count for score, they have to be flat against your torso. His counter would've been like " zero, zero, zero. . . "
    Run was good. I'm garbage at running so I have nothing for that.
