One tip for running I got from my fellow Marine is to use more of the front of your feet instead of rocking them throughout the run. As in don't land on your heals and then rock off, since the landing wastes the momentum and energy from the previous stride. Going down and up hill, land with as much contact as possible using the front of your feet. Downhill, larger strides; uphill, smaller strides.
> Downhill, larger strides I think the world-renowned running coach Jack Daniels warned against larger strides going downhill. The larger your stride, the more force your joints and hamstrings have to absorb. Because of this, not over-striding is especially important going downhill, when you're putting the most force on your joints and hamstrings.
We used to do PFT right after the club closes at 4 in the morning and get back to MCAS Futenma, Okinawa. And still managed to get a 288 PFT. I was 24. Now 37. Can barely finish 3 miles little over 30 mins.

@@OmariFaith Growing up, I was never one for long distance running. I was a football lineman, baseball player, and field portion of track and field. I could do decent short distance (100 & 200 meter), but long distance was low and slow. The key is endurance. You have to be able to set a pace and keep that pace over 3 miles. Only idiots take off fast from the beginning. That's okay, let them. You will lap the majority of them by the 1½ mile mark. Save the sprint for the end. If you kept a great pace the whole time, in the last 100 meters you don't really have to any extra energy to give to sprint because you gave it all during the 3 miles. I grew to like running because I was 6'4", 250 lbs., and I liked it because I was not built for it, but got good at it. Start slow, try to walk on a treadmill for 45 minutes straight. Then continue to do it everyday. this everyday and eventually you will be able to increase your speed. I was able to loose 80 pounds and get physically fit enough to go to bootcamp in 5 months. Motivation and Dedication. OORAH YAT-YAS
@@ReapWhatYaSow I fucking appreciated this man thank you! Im going to start heading to the field near me and run from endzone to endzone to build endurance. I definitely need to listen to what you said and focus on what pace to maintain the entire run, I feel that really may be key.
@@OmariFaith I never considered setting a pace to last the length of the run. You just have to find your stride and the more you do it, the faster you will go. Now, I never got any ridiculous pre-18 minute times like some of these guys, but they weren't 6'4", 200+ pounds, with 23" biceps either. They were usually short to average height, skinny, surfer, swimmer, cross country runners. My best 3 mile time was 20:38. My average was usually between 21-22 minutes and I was pretty proud of that.
When I was in , a good way to get faster running time was a drill called 30/60's . With this drill , you sprint for 30 secs. And run for 60 secs. This will help with controlling your breathing while maintaining a pace. I also would inhale / exhale breathing like a cadence (breath in through the and out the mouth ) try to focus on exhale when the left hits the deck. The corps. Was way different when I was in (90's. East Coast Devil Dog). Just a tip that worked for me when I was stationed in DC. Semper Fi!!
I have a question: what is the best record for each event that you've ever seen? I'm 32, and I want to get myself back into shape before "Sunbathers Summer". Also, My granpap was a Marine during Pearl Harbor. I have an incredible amount of respect for you guys and what you do for me and every other "Civvie". Thank you so very, very much! OOOOH-RAAAH!
We had a little chubby guy in boot camp in 1976 who could run 3 miles in 15 minutes, it was freaky. Back then we had to do situps after the pullups and before the run. I held a guys legs for him one time (because that's what we would do back then) who did 110 situps in 2 minutes. Best I ever saw
I'll second what the guy said about running. I was around 210 pounds and managed to run a 17:30 3 mile. I was a decent runner, but my time hung between 19-19:30. It wasn't until my buddy started doing interval training with me on the weekends that I broke 18 minutes for the first time.
Not marine corps but mcjrotc we take the pft. We do the crunches 105 in 2 minutes pull ups 20 in 2 minutes and 1 mile run under 6 min. Since the program started we have had 5 or 6 cadets get a perfect 300. I am going to try and use this to be the next
@Steve Fernandez .... she's masculine? Have you seen a woman with actual muscles? I'm not saying she's not fit but for a strong woman she looks great you can't even see her muscle when she's relaxed or when her arms are bent. So what the hell are you talking about???
You could literally boost half my alma mater in your focus/insensitive skill set with your tips, appearance and motivation. Of my past, the in sheep troops I noticed were also the ones that needed to be, such as the majority police, so/security forces guys, they were always hitting the iron, running, boxing or wrestling and either kickboxing or judo. They’re now infused with decent white belt bjj which is great if you can safely take a combative to the ground where his backup is not existent, otherwise it quickly becomes plan c,d,e,f etc. The other groups known to be fit troops are our pj/fac/cc’s and fast mover jockeys (f-16;15;35;22; and A-10 drivers as many were college or university footballers and wrestlers. Punching out in bad lands until rescue, brains, brawn and motivation work with remaining calm and instincts which have saved many lives of all mentioned. Great video once again!

Thanks for serving, stay motivated and know we’re out here in full support of our nations beloved military…! Semper Fidelis, from a veteran to you all ,, Rah !
Sub 18 3 miles is serious. I was a great runner as a young teen with greay natural endurance. I ran the mile in 5:24 in 7th grade and a 40 minute 10k (which is like 6:30 pace for 6 miles) in 8th grade. but I still don't know if I could've ever hit 3 miles that fast. A 4:20 plank is a joke in comparison. I could hop up and do that with zero training other than will power. Whereas if I wanted to attempt a sub 18 3 miles I would have to have a serious, consistent and smart training plan
The tip he had at 3:15 isn't bad either. Back when I was training at Lifetime gym I was able to crank out a maximum of 11 pull ups using shoulder width pullups so its not bad advice. However, on Jeff Nippard's channel he recommends 1.5 times should width pullups, and when I tried that I felt stronger because the lats are a much stronger muscle than the biceps. With that being said, while I felt stronger I still wasn't able to go past 11 pull ups and I think it was because my core was weak and because I was overweight. All in all, I think the best way to master pullup hand placement is to focus on one version either 1.5 times shoulder width or shoulder width until you can hit a minimum of 10 in one set. Then after that, focus on the other version until you can hit a minimum of 10 on that. After that then move on to weighted pullups with the version you most prefer.
Even if you can't get a perfect 300 on your score, there's still getting close if you can score a first class PFT, which is the top grouping of points. I never failed to get a First Class PFT, largely since I could always do 20 pullups. I would muscle through the first 10 and then just let myself drop after the pullup and the snap at the bottom, using my arms like rubber bands, and that would jerk me half way back up and provide momentum to make it back to the top. Of course my arms would be bent at a 30 degree angle for the next 3 days because i wouldn't be able to straighten them out after snapping them like that. The best key to running is to take the longest step possible, even learn to swing your hips to increase your stride, and also control your breathing to slow and deep. I only once ever finished the 3 miles in under 18 minutes, but I always came within a minute or 2 of that. The funniest thing about that was that I would always run 5 miles every other day to stay in shape, and would usually do that in right around 40 minutes. Soon after I was discharged, my time for that 5 mile run suddenly dropped to 30 minutes every time, which would have easily have gotten me 3 miles in 18 minutes while I was still enlisted lol
Careful: If "the longest step possible" leads to overstriding (feet landing too far in front of you), then it becomes inefficient as your body is automatically braking with each step. Not only will this slow you down, but it will place unnecessary stress on your joints and hamstrings. There's lots of stuff on the internet about overstriding. Personally, what I've found most helpful is Jack Daniels's tip to aim for ~180 steps per minute when not sprinting. Having said that, personally I tend to take steps that are too small when running 3 miles as fast as I can. When I correct by taking longer steps (by slowing my cadence down to ~180 steps per minute), I go faster with less effort.
Great video devils, keep up with the upper max PT scores, when those quotas for jump, sniper, ranger, and combat diver becomes open only the top 3 go. Remember, there is someone who will outrun and out shoot you, just have to keep training. So, who's picture is posted as the honorable commander chief and honorable vice president in HQ these days.
Love this. I still struggle with pull-ups ( I am using resistance bands now). What exercises would you recommend to help develop the upper body strength to do the Pull ups?
damn that pt gear reminds me of parris island. lol. my score in the pft was 297 and i had the highest amount of marine corps. crunches in the platoon during bootcamp. semper fi 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
Might be good to slow down rep cadence on pull-ups so you can increase the time under tension during training. I’d wait until the a few workouts before the PFT to quicken your pull-up cadence.
i hope it aint changed too much over 4 years but i plan on working on all that and really work on myself physically so that one day i can be a serviceman in the usmc (and also get jacked lol)
If you do band-assisted pullups, instead of wrapping the band under a foot/feet you can bend a knee and wrap the band under your knee. Then, the band is less likely to come loose and whack you in the face. Trust me, I know : )
I ran 1524 in the 3 Mile in 1982 second fastest Marine in my battalion got beat by a Pima Indian 24 pull-ups sit-ups are breeze had six 300 pfts in a row then went to infantry School no pog
Thank GOD the Marine Corps FINALLY doesn't allow kipping. When I was in, I watched people that could barely do three strict kipped out 20, while I did strict 12-14 and they got all 100 points.
planks aka watching tv. lol. they used to make us plank on the quarterdeck, but we had our hands under our chin as if watching tv. now planks as a punishment has become part of the pft. we would watch tv for like 5 mins straight. i do find it hilarious they made watching tv(minus the hands under the chin) as part of the pft.
The tip he had at 2:08 is pretty sound. I also heard Broly Gainz (another youtube calisthenics beast ) talk about the benefits of using partial reps at your weak points of an exercise. Broly also even has a nickname for it. He calls them "shorties" lol. He would have a great Marine PFT score. The only thing I would worry about with him is if he could run a fast 3 mile run with a decent pace. But even then he said that he runs a mile almost every workout which is something that I am currently doing.
To start off yeah, but its always better to make the transition to pullups when you can. Pullups are less range of motion and more even load between back and biceps.
The problem i have is pullups. I'm fine push-ups crunches, planks. But I cant seem to get more then 3 pullups... 😬. Is this going to be a problem if I go to basic training. 😂
my first boot camp test was 499. then I was coach on the run, I am short, so DI said don't stand up then run take off standing up from that point on 500 out of 500. Who changed the rules???? Help us lord.

Having said that, personally I tend to take steps that are too small when running 3 miles as fast as I can. When I correct by taking longer steps (by slowing my cadence down to ~180 steps per minute), I go faster with less effort.
Now we are talking about a real team america. Love you all
Great info guys, def the most beautiful Marine I’ve ever seen!!
Look at these pogs
I wasn't gonna say it lol
I feel like a salt dog Raider lookin at these super POGs.
How can you differentiate between a grunt and pog? That must be like the Eagle Sense in Assassins Creed 😆
I loved the 3 mile run always under 18 minutes
I love to see you young guys doing it! Semperfi!
Great video devils, keep up with the upper max PT scores, when those quotas for jump, sniper, ranger, and combat diver becomes
open only the top 3 go. Remember, there is someone who will outrun and out shoot you, just have to keep training. So, who's

Love this. I still struggle with pull-ups ( I am using resistance bands now). What exercises would you recommend to help develop the upper body strength to do the Pull ups?
jump up and go slow down.
Do pull ups to improve
Negatives helped me a lot
Assisted pull ups
Do them Everyday I get 29-30 pull ups on the ist at 160lbs
damn that pt gear reminds me of parris island. lol. my score in the pft was 297 and i had the highest amount of marine corps. crunches in the platoon during bootcamp. semper fi 🤙🤙🤙🤙🤙
what were those 3 points missing coming from? run time?
Agyoolar yes.
Ayeeeeee great tips bro!!! I want to see the other PRT you guys do carrying the ammo!! Navy PRT was a joke 😢😢😢
just found your channel, good shit bro! keep up the good content
much love bro! thanks let me know what you want to see
Thanks for your service ❤
1:38 “tansion” 😂
Might be good to slow down rep cadence on pull-ups so you can increase the time under tension during training. I’d wait until the a few workouts before the PFT to quicken your pull-up cadence.
At 5:25 and a few seconds later, the shadow makes it look like someone is pointing a suppressed pistol at her lmao
The Marine Corps needs to incorporate sprint intervals to PFT.
Sprinting is superior,y opinion.
7:26 Smooth transition!
The key to the run is the correct go-fasters
The bloopers 😂😂😂😂
haha my favorite part
I've never seen sit ups like that before. Interesting though
Never?
i hope it aint changed too much over 4 years but i plan on working on all that and really work on myself physically so that one day i can be a serviceman in the usmc (and also get jacked lol)
If you do band-assisted pullups, instead of wrapping the band under a foot/feet you can bend a knee and wrap the band under your knee. Then, the band is less likely to come loose and whack you in the face. Trust me, I know : )
You all are damn beasts respect man respect
this recommended me so randomly lol Just finished 5 miles run
big brother is watching. not joking.
@@geet77777 lol
Great video, y'all 🙌
She is waaay too fine to be a Marine though ! Gotta be the best I’ve seen ever in the Corps!
what does that have to do with being a marine?
Guys , i cannot focus with this angel in the video , say hi for me to herr 😁 all the respect for you guys
Rest in peace Uncle Phil...for real‼️💪🏾
I seen the born sinner crown so I’m like respect but as soon as he said first things first rip uncle Phil I fucking lost it
I ran 1524 in the 3 Mile in 1982 second fastest Marine in my battalion got beat by a Pima Indian 24 pull-ups sit-ups are breeze had six 300 pfts in a row then went to infantry School no pog
yeah ok dude
Thank GOD the Marine Corps FINALLY doesn't allow kipping. When I was in, I watched people that could barely do three strict kipped out 20, while I did strict 12-14 and they got all 100 points.
Thanks y’all!
I might need some more sit up therapy!!!
Dope content man
Omar the tent maker made my PT shorts when I was in the Corps also...lol
Good job guys
5:25 😂 yo what you holding in that shadow brother!!! 🔫
planks aka watching tv. lol. they used to make us plank on the quarterdeck, but we had our hands under our chin as if watching tv. now planks as a punishment has become part of the pft. we would watch tv for like 5 mins straight. i do find it hilarious they made watching tv(minus the hands under the chin) as part of the pft.
Great video, thanks...
ahh matt is so cute big fan of him
The tip he had at 2:08 is pretty sound. I also heard Broly Gainz (another youtube calisthenics beast ) talk about the benefits of using partial reps at your weak points of an exercise.
Broly also even has a nickname for it. He calls them "shorties" lol. He would have a great Marine PFT score. The only thing I would worry about with him is if he could run a fast 3 mile run with a decent pace.
But even then he said that he runs a mile almost every workout which is something that I am currently doing.
Thank yall
14years ago. Those days are gone.
That makeup isn’t in regs unless you’re going to the Purple Church (RIP) amateur night.
San Diego Marine, 1982 August 20. Plt. 3044
I give all the glory to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ for my physical fitness.
4:07 he’s definitely bricked up
Bro you say that’s the hardest part is the second half. I got that down. It’s the locking out going from deadhang
For anyone struggling with pull ups, do chin ups instead they're much easier
To start off yeah, but its always better to make the transition to pullups when you can. Pullups are less range of motion and more even load between back and biceps.
6:45 VO2 max
The problem i have is pullups. I'm fine push-ups crunches, planks. But I cant seem to get more then 3 pullups... 😬. Is this going to be a problem if I go to basic training. 😂
and if allowed...run from point a to point b...no laps...psychological advantage...
Remember this isn’t strength training where to improve slowly,this is get it done right training lmao
Thank you!
Genuinely I think it would take at least a few months of daily training to go from 5 to 23 pull ups
mine was 500 pts
lets see girl do over 20 pull ups no short cuts
I just want to burn calories watching these videos.
4:02 lol no role models by j. Cole
yessirrrrrrrrrrr
Its not crunches anymore its a plank and it maxes out at 3:30
4:43 Was the original standard for the plank really 4min 20s? I'm prepping for OCS and to score 100 on that portion is 3min 45s
So times 4 min planks are now in the fitness test for marines?
I can barely finish a mile within 8:30, 18 min for 3 miles is just crazy.
my first boot camp test was 499. then I was coach on the run, I am short, so DI said don't stand up then run take off standing up from that point on 500 out of 500.
Who changed the rules????
Help us lord.
Implementing all these before shipping in September. Thanks folks!
That’s the form for sit ups? I gotta talk to my wife I had no idea she was doing that all day with her marines buddies….
7:29 were you just standing still and recording that still af for 7 and half minutes??
