I do this with beers. Start off with 6 one week and do 8 the next week. Slowly moving up!
Thomas Franklin 😂
Good man😎🍺🍺
Lmao !
How you doin now ?
@@Mistaken_deed 15 beers a week!
This is spot on! What I did was the same thing. I would run a quarter mile the first week every day with 25 push-ups each day. Then the next week I would run a half a mile each day with 50 pushups each day. I did this until I reached 3 miles everyday with 300 pushups everyday, but it all started with the quarter and 25 pushups
Really got to 300 push-ups?
Alfred Sung you don’t have to do all of them at once
How long it takes to reach 1 mile run
How long would it take me to build up to a million pushups a day?
300 push-ups!?!?
When he gets his drone back, he looks like an excited little kid 🤣
Great video!!! Navy Nurse here from CA... I enjoy your videos a lot, more then that I learn a lot with then! I appreciate you sharing knowledge! Well done sailor!!
Thank you so much man, I've been runnin 2 miles daily just trying to increase my pace but it hasn't worked much. I didn't think about just pushing myself in smaller increments
Did you tried it?
Does it work?
Great video man was practicing running 2miles daily this makes way more sense.
I love your vids man your great keep up everything you do and have fun brother God bless. Thanks for this video I’m not a very good runner I think this will help a lot.😁😁😁
Hope so! And thanks again Henry!
Awesome advice!! Thank you!! Shipping out January 20th and my mile and half time is 16:50. Definitely gonna try this approach. Hooyah!! 🇺🇸⚓️
I ship Dec13. All the best.
Thanks for this I definitely need as much help as I can get with my run time
Glad it helped! Try it and give it everything! It will work for you
As a crosscountry runner solid advice but I would also do a long run once a week(usually Saturday) so if your traning for 1.5 to two miles just jog three or four miles and two miles should seem easy fartlicks are always good too
One of the most helpful videos - thank you :0)
Love your videos, keep them coming.
thanks Derek! 🙏
Hey Austen, if you plan on doing a workout video soon can you please post a little bit on running posture/form. I can run but, it's not the right way and it always hurt my joints in the long run. 🤣 no pun intended.
Great videos man💪🏼
I’m starting to really like this channel bro, keep it up
Thanks Frankie! I appreciate it
I really needed this!!
Thank you this helped me so much
thank you soo much for making this video, i failed my PRT and i needed help on how to shed time off my Run. I will definitely try this workout
@@AustenAlexander YESS!!! I am signing up for it NOW!! thank you, God bless
ive signed up for it but haven't received nothing yet
my bad its austenalexander.com/bootcampblueprint forgot to add the first part
No. Don't start off with sprinting short distance like that. You're gonna want to start running a comfortable speed for a decent distance. Increase distance till you make that 1.5 miles. First work on form. Then distance. Then finally speed. Don't work on speed before anything else because you will hurt yourself.
That's in Long Beach! I'm homegrown LBC boy. Sweet video
I've started with a 1/2 mile, then 3/4, then mile, then mile, then 1-1/4 mile, then 1-1/4 mile, then 1-1/2 mile, then 1-1/2 mile, then 1-3/4 mile, then 1-3/4 mile, then 2 miles, then 2 miles. I'm also not sprinting the whole way as I do a lot better when running if I'm not sprinting for longer distances.
how long did it take you from quarter of a mile? and what is your mile in a half time?
wow, that's a great video!
Best video yet about the 2 mile
I did a PT the other day and failed miserably because I couldn’t keep up... my feet got super weak and heart started to beat really fast.
“Trying to get a tan on my white boy body” 😂😂🤣🤣🤣

Hello sir, I’ve been watching your RUclips channel and subscribed as well. I think that you have amazing contents and more reality into it.
So I was just wondering about the tip you gave to decrease running time or to run faster for the Navy PFT/PST.
Is there a set of running training? Like 3 sets of quarter mile sprint with 1 minute rest between sets or something?
I am enlisted in the DEP for the NAVY right now and open to different trainings to maximize my fitness.
Thank you very much and I appreciate your hard work into each videos.
Have a nice day sir.
yes sir i appreciate it! If you look at my newer videos, there is a link to my free boot camp preparation program. Hope this helps!!
Running with hills can totally help decrease your run time I would do 4 miles with 2 big hills I’d finish in 39 minutes now I’m at 31:43 minute 4 mile run with hills and on flat ground I can do it faster
Youre incredible
Hey man your videos are awesome!! They are full of great information!! Really enjoy the way you put them together with the music cut scenes throughout the videos and the scenery shots and your intro and outros. Entertaining from start to finish. I just joined the Navy and I swore in a month ago. Picked a SeaBee rate of CE. The interview video with your MA buddy was great. Know any SeaBees you could get one with haha?? Keep up all the hard work making and editing videos!!
Hey Sean, I appreciate this a lot! I started putting more detail into my videos instead of just talking. The Seabee rates are very closed in..I don't think there are any here in Seal Beach, but I will try to outreach to San Diego to find one! That would be a good video
Thanks a lot for writing back man!! I appreciate you trying to find a SeaBee to talk to. If you cant no worries at all. It would be awesome just to listen to your input and info about the SeaBee community and the rates. Keep the positive motivation and good vibes going man!!
Would you suggest this still for someone who wasn't given a lot of prep time before they leave? Lieave in 13 days!
I did a 1.5 mile run and I did it in 20:13 min that shit ain't good at all
Hey dude! Love the video, quality is amazing! I'm 13 and I'm going to join the US army after high school. I want to be fit enough and build up over the years. I need some advice though. My family has a history of knee issues (not that bad, just a bit of pain and some joint dislocation). I find when I run my left knee slows me down a lot. I don't want this to stop me and I'm going to join the military no matter what. What should I do to ease the pain?
Knee brace occasionally, ice after runs and join the track team for a couple of years.
Good tips.
Your deadlift form is off though. Your elbows are bending and you're rowing the bar up. That limits your weights and can lead to a torn biceps.
Lock out the elbows. Arms are just cables. Pretense the bar, pull the slack out, tense the back like that and don't pull with your back muscles. They stay rigid.
Anyway, thanks for the running tips, I'll try that out in 2 week blocks. 2 weeks your sprints, 2 weeks running longer distances 1x a week.
great vid man, but what about warmup?
Just trying to find about more info about the SeaBee community and the Seabee lifestyle in the Navy. Thanks!!
Me too
Me three
@Austen Alexander
What is your shoulder tattoo of Austen??? Looks like you’ve got some New Zealand influence in there? ❤️❤️❤️
Can I do multiple qtr miles in 1 day for ex. in the mornings and later at night as long as I have the motivation/determination to do so? Will that help?
I’m getting my mile down but this will def help. Thanks.
good! No problem
Hey man great video. So I just recently started running and have been getting really bad shin splints, do I ignore it and keep running or is there something I can do to reduce the pain?
I appreciate it! I can't logically tell you to push through it because I know how bad they can hurt. I've dealt with them before too and I've always heard that Fish Oils and Magnesium can help with shin splints. Try to wear semi tight fitted socks as well to keep that tibia from taking a beating. That's really the only way I can tell you. Hope this helps!
I get them too. Get some shin sleeves, and a roller. Roll your shins on the soft side.
Should I only do one quarter mile? Or should I do more in one workout?
I was told by my recruiter not to run before basic cause I'm really close to the min weight. 😭 now I'm worried I won't be able to do it. I leave the 15th
He says ten like tin hehehe fun! Love it!
okay for one, hot damm thats a nice drone shot, whats playing during the drone shot? Damm nice 3k you deserve it ! you should totally do some livestreams
i think the song is called Fall In Love by Cospe. And thanks! I have definitely thought about it. Maybe when I get to 5k!
5k... its a date
What camera do you use? Anybody know the full name of the camera ??
I'm extremely weak as hell and currently doing 30 push ups a day and 60 basic dumbbell...lifts? (I don't what it's called lmao) I've noticed my biceps grow, not a lot but I noticed the difference. Now I need to improve my crappy endurance. I got a long road ahead before joining the military.
take it a step at a time and you will be fine! Once you biceps get even bigger you will be addicted to the gym haha it happened to me
Military is pretty much all mental. Muscles you can train easily, mental toughness only you can change.
@A V How’s it going now?
@@iansadowski636 currently deployed lmao
@@sailorcook5423 Oh nice! What’s your rate?
I'm not in the military, but something else that will help is running up hills
thanks for the tips, what is better track or treadmill?
track for actaully testing what ur score would b in the real test but jus for improving on urself i like treadmills bc u can also adjust the hill if u want however they both work great honestly jus make sure u keep up w ur running so u can get better and better
Will it be just as effective if I run on a treadmill ?
I would say yes BUT i would put it at a 1.0 incline because some treadmills aren't completely flat...they're sometimes sloped downward
Were you still doing strength training along with the 1/4 mile increments? And if yes, did it help improve your time?
I tried 2 mile run to our streets near at home earlier in the morning but i failed i just took 12 minutes 😅 but I'm gonna do it again.
12 minutes is good time man I've been running a lot recently just tryin to get better. I wish you luck on your journey bro!
Am I suppose to do these intervals everyday ? Can I just do it 5x per week ?
Other people asked but I never found an answer, do you just run the .25 once and youre done? Or do you rest like 2 minutes and run it again a few times
kishred bird, I run it once and I’m done running for that day... I also do planks, squats, etc to overload the muscles. Then I do it again the next day, etc. You are forming the building blocks your body needs to be successful 👍
Can you do a video on how to improve your pullups
Do pull ups.
If you can't, put yourself at an angle and try to pull yourself up.
Rows and curls.
@@tadghf6891 Rows and curls don't have much carryover to pull-ups. Best thing for those who can't do a pull-up is doing negatives. The next best thing, is training in a grease the groove style. Peace!
Work your way up to three sets of 15 then add weight and work your way back up to three sets of 15
Quick question so I'm very out of shape I got a 10 min half mile first day then 9:15 the second day I just wanna know if it's an ok time haven't ran in 2 years and am very out of shape by good time I mean the decrease started at half mile not the .25 mile
я тим you’ve got a long way to go, but keep running. Try to eat healthier too.

This is called “greasing the groove”
And you’re called a white supremacist. Keep that dumbass flag in the 1800’s, y’all LOST
@@thesoutherngossip4548 moron
always great help leaving for bootcamp soon 🙂
good luck my dude!! You're goona dominate boot
@@AustenAlexander thanks shipdate 20181113 🙂
What about breaks
I have a week left for BOOTCAMP. I suck at running. But I can run mile and a half on treadmill. Can you give me advice ?
Truly _Legit1995, how did you do in boot camp?
How was boot camp? I would have asked my recruiter to move me back
Hi! AUSTEN 👍👍👍
I leave for bootcamp in less than a month and I have my 1.5 mile down to 18 mins but that's still not good enough but every time I try to get faster my body doesnt like it... any tips??
Justin keep going. I served in the British Army and at the age of 62 I can complete 1.5 miles in just under 12min and that is after a slower 3mile run.
All in Boots....
I leave for boot in 5 months and I’m down to 13 minutes and it at 12:30 any tips British army man
Hey, so you literally just run 1 quarter mile each day? Not like 4-5 with optimal time of resting?
jeremy lin, starting off no, start slow as Austen states. Quarter mile before progressing 👍
❤️❤️❤️
So are you supposed to full speed sprint 3/4 of a mile and so on?
Sorry to repeat what you said it’s just hard to imagine me full sprinting a mile+
yes, that is why we start out very small. The physical readiness test is a sprint 1.5 mile...so you'll need to practice that whole distance
@@alexalmendarez9154 no... you can't SPRINT for that long.
GrenadR it’s more like a jog but you have to run a mile and a half in like 13 minutes so it’s a faster jog
@@collinm7790 yeah, if it's 13 min for 1.5 miles then it should be fairly easy for most people who are into fitness
is only quarter mile a day 7 day/week?? or can i do quarter mile in 3 set?
I made this program to help everyone at all levels. So if you can already run 0.25 with no problem then I would just start at week 2 or 3 if you can
@@AustenAlexander so I'm a big fat fella and I knocked off 45 seconds off of my half mile haven't ran in two years is that a good decrease in time I kinda wanna know if I'ma doing good
I ship out July right now I’m practicing on my push up and run but it’s hard for me to do push ups 😭
girl same.! july 13th and my time and numbers are crap :(
"Girly" pushups or weighted girly pushups
@@tawnni24 keep going do morning run even tho some morning I be too lazy to get up also make sure you ask your recruiter when he or she is doing pt so you can get ready
Looks like Gold’s Gym, I go there sometimes. 👍🏾
it is! Small world haha
Maybe waiting till I have 29 days left was a bad idea
Damn you look like Captain America!
But wait... then is that an imposter at 7:44 🤔
I only have one month. What do I do?
Ivanka Sonal do the process but in shorter time
Marines, 3 miles
Im a fatso lol 6'2 230 pounds and I can do 32 pushups in a row and I can run 1 mile in 8:30 but im winded
I don’t want to be in the military, I just want to have the fitness of someone who is
Pussy
Long Beach is the best place ever
If you only run 1/4 of a mile you won't have an elevated heart rate for at least 20 minutes.
I call Austin out on any obstacle course Ong HMU if u ain’t scared @austin Alexander
