I got my 1.5-mile time down a lot, but I need more lats and triceps strength to complete this exercise still. If I do not pass, I will just try again and train more over the next few months and become a beast.

    I find it funny that the Army expects the length of throw to come from age, but don't consider someone like me being 5' 4"... I've been yeeting a 15lb ball, swap to the 10, non-stop 5.5 meters. 6.5 is required to pass. Height plays a factor here, big Army is dropping the ball on this. I just tried these tips and lost a meter on my throw.

    I'm stunned this move is even challenging......guess even the tuck lever is way beyond most soldier's grasp these days. Could it be a bulging stomach is the impediment here? I'm not familiar with how a woman's physique deals with this move but as almost no woman in the world can manage a front lever maybe this is hard for most women. But for a man? Wow.....then again when I look at a lot of military they are so often significantly overweight. But look at their diet. The military feeds them a lot of garbage food so that sure doesn't make it easy. Fried foods and sugar and slat should be eliminated yet it continues.

    • @michiganarngmasterfitnesst8963
      @michiganarngmasterfitnesst8963 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Please avoid spreading misinformation. It devalues the test. Page 2-26 of ATP 7-22.01, C1: Upward movement phase: on the command, “GO,” the Soldier flexes at the elbows, knees, hips, and waist to bring the knees up. The elbows must flex. They cannot remain fully extended or straight. The right and left knees or front of the thighs must touch the right and left elbows or back of the upper arm respectively so they touch or are in contact with the elbows at the same time.

  • @AlexMercerFR
    @AlexMercerFR 3 ปีที่แล้ว

    Using these plates to show what the movement on the way up looks like was really a good idea! Also I have a question: if I want to maximize the work in my chest (doing regular push ups), can I apply these tips as well? And wouldn't it be better for me to go down in a more controlled manner?

    • @JohnJohnson-fh9qg
      @JohnJohnson-fh9qg 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Going down in a controlled manner would be slightly more taxing on your muscles. By letting gravity do that part for you, you would conserve a bit of energy, and that would allow you to get more reps in this event. This technique is probably best to use just on the test or practicing for the test. For the sake of trying to get the best score possible, you want to give yourself every advantage.

    • @michiganarngmasterfitnesst8963
      @michiganarngmasterfitnesst8963 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Keeping the emphasis on a vertical forearm helps enable peak function of the chest. All tips translate into performance improvements, biomechanical advantages, and reduced risk of injury. As for a controlled manner question, maximal push-up rep is better achieved in a fast pace. However, training in a controlled manner focusing on time under tension is a phenomenal way to improve push-up capacity.

    Hi..the ACFT guidelines on website state your body has to remain perpendicular to the bar but this and many other videos suggest to look up at the bar and lean back to get knees up...makes sense, but it this 'legal'?

    • @michiganarngmasterfitnesst8963
      @michiganarngmasterfitnesst8963 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The only reference to a perpendicular body position is in the predatory phase "The body is positioned perpendicular to the bar." That is a starting position only. Check ATP 7-22.01 paragraph 2-89 for the official regulations of the leg tuck.
