This is exactly what i needed to hear. I was told few days ago I have to lose 50lbs I'm 5'6, 225lbs. I have immediately changed my eating habits, and started walking and doing core exercises every day to build up to more intense exercises..💪ATTACK AND OBTAIN YOUR GOALS!👍👍
Man I needed this. Trying to get into the Air Force. Started 250. Now near 225, and I need to lose anywhere from 19-29 more pounds. Trying to eat and drink basically nothing but protein.
SneekiBreeki816 you don’t gotta be afraid of carbs, as long as you are eating in a caloric deficit you can still enjoy what you eat! But keep it up! 💪🏽💯
I lose 25 pounds in 2 months, and enlisted as a 92G, I watched your videos since I started losing weight, and now I'm at 30 days to ship out, Thank you for your videos!!
I’ve lost 26 pounds since November 2020, I need to lose another 23 to join the Air Force. I hit a brick wall but I think this is what I needed to get me back on track. Thank you sir!!
Please make some videos on what your diet contained of. I'm a 20yo 6'4 255lb guy and my biggest issue has been what do eat on the daily to lose the 30-40lbs I need to lose
Went from 230 to 188 .. always been built so people assume I lifted but haven’t touched weights in a while but key thing I did to lose my weight was jump rope & change my eating habits !! 😉
I'm only a female freshman and I dont have a career path in mind, so the military was always the last option. I can only go for the army though, I can't swim that well and I'm afraid of heights.
The thing about the military is they will give you the chance to confront those fears and get over them. For example, the Marines have a rappelling wall. If you're scared of heights, you'll probably freak out, just like I would have a while back, but once you get outside of your comfort zone, doing things you didn't think you could do previously becomes that much easier. I went flying in a helicopter with a family friend, and it was actually fun. So, don't limit yourself to what you THINK you can't do. Get out there into the unknown and go for it!
I gotta lose an expected 70lbs lol. 250 and 5'10. I don't look the weight but damn it's hard to lose. Figured I should just focus on my bmi until I can pass for the Army all together.
I have to lose 18 pounds before I can pass! I started at 189 in September and I’m only down to 178. I have to be 160! This is the hardest thing I have ever gone through but I’m busting my ass for it.
I need to loose expected 50ibs I’m 5’ 10” to join the army, I cut down my carbs, putting meats and vegetables in my diet, Intermittent fasting and Apv diet combine and I was 260ibs now I’m 250ibs lost 10ibs within a month, Been heading to gym 6 days a week starting doing weightlifting then cardio after , I hope I could join within next year. I love your video you inspire me a lot!!
Also Special K and probiotics such as Activia, and Oatmeal (not the instant stuff) also helps. As a guy those options may seem feminine as females don't like to eat however as males we do but does work and help us curb our appetites
@BlueEyes-ii4zz i also wouldn't recommend special k as you aren't getting a lot of volume for the calories you're eating. The rolled oats are good though
Bro I had to lose weight as well to join went from 267-231 and at basic I lost weight and went from 231-198 fucking awesome had abs and everything then got out and ate shit and got fat went to 225lbs lol
Thanks for the advice. I'm trying to loose weight for the army as well, I play lineman football for my highschool if that gives you an idea of how big I am.
I’m planning on enlisting for the Navy this week, but I can barely do 10 push ups in a row right now. Is there ANY advice for how I can get better at them? I want this more than anything and will work my ass off to achieve my fitness goals
I know it’s a bit late to comment on the video considering you made it 3 months ago but hopefully you see this and I can get some info from you. I started out 255lbs at 5’6”, extremely overweight for my height. My required weight is 175lbs. 3 1/2 months later I’ve finally hit 188 and nearing my goal of 175 to hopefully enlist as a TACPs (speaking it into to existence). My question is, should I begin to seek out a recruiter now? Or wait until I have hit at least hit 180-183lbs or obviously the target weight which is 175lbs?
I want to join the army but I need to drop 140Lbs. I’m more determined than ever,. It’s been a month and I’ve already dropped 15lbs. Once I reach my goal I will make a video to chats my story as well. Thank you all
You can do it Esmeralda. Look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself if you like what you see. If the answer is no, then ask yourself, whatchu you gonna do about it? You gonna let that person in the mirror win? That's what I did, 20 pounds later I feel much better, not there yet, but I'm getting there. My three tips to losing weight are: maintain a calorie deficit. You don't have to give up your favorite foods, just eat less. Cut down on junk food eat once in a while but not as often. No need to get into a diet and start eating salads an d chicken everyday, that's what causes most people to quit. 2. Cardio is your best friend. Cardio gets the heart pumping and shreds fat. Too bad I hate running with every cell in my body. Jump rope instead. Jump as long as you can at first, the goal is at least 30 min 3x a week. Do some everyday if you want crazy results. 3. it will get tough. Moments where you don't wanna work out anymore. Ask yourself why you are doing this. Your answer should always be because this is the person I chose to be. Plus, when you put on clothes that fit you now, aint no better feeling Good luck Esmeralda! You can do this!
Same here I want to join the Marine Corps I’m currently 314 pounds 5’7 and 18 before COVID I was 273 lbs I need to get to 180 pounds to join I want to join by next year so I have time to loose weight hopefully I am able to get motivated and loose weight and I believe in you and I hope you believe in me as well
I am 4,11 I feel like recruiters be losing faith in me once they meet me which is very sad because I live my all. Now I am at 169 need to get to 130 I think or 140 I don't remember. I want to join so bad but I don't find people who are willing to work with me. Once a recruiter meets me they make it so obvious they don't want to work with me
Im 4 11 and i was at 140 now im at 124 it takes time and good eating habit. I enlisted for active duty in the army and my recruiter was surprised to see how much weight i lost
I know your comment is hella old now but the army specifically does have the arms program now for those that are over bodyfat by about 6 percent i think. However yeah they cant work with you until you meet that. It sucks but they got other people they need to focus on.
I am currently at 250, I am 5'11 and I've been trying to lose weight for the past year but, my addiction to food and sugar has not let up. 4 months ago I was 270, I lost 20 pound's by just cutting down on food a little. I'm thinking about actually trying harder to lose more.
I need to lose 55lbs or 25kgs... I'm looking at all possible ways on how to lose fat. I will be living a pretty sedentary life due to my work but man, I need to lose weight one way or another. I'm 6'0 weighing 216lbs/98kgs. I have a question with the 25/25/25/25 push up exercise plan, do you do the push ups before breakfast? I'm gonna start drinking a green juice that's helped some family members. I need to be consistent, I tend to start for a bit and then just get discouraged and/or bored.
Well if losing weight is your goal then lifting at a gym is not necessary, just jogging a lot around your neighborhood and eating in a calorie deficit will make you lose weight.
5'5 and I started at 179 and they wanted me at 156. Im 160 now, but it took 5 months. Im only worried about push ups and running. I wanna ask my recruiter if he can help me prepare.
I’m in the process of losing 20 pounds to go into the national guard. I can’t tell if I’m developing an eating disorder or if I’m just very dedicated- or both
How do I know how much calories in a food and what app or website did u use to scan products to see facts ? Please thx I'm 14 and planning to join the army but I want to lose 20 kgs thx👍👍
I'm 5'5 200lbs looking to join I can pass tape. Do you have any suggestions that might help me so I can join soon. I'm not afride of working out I cut carbs but I still need to lose any help you can give me I would really appreciate
Thank God I finally passed my ASVAB EXAMS ON MY 5th attempt with the help of Mr DAVID, I used his preparation tips. just 3 days of working with him and I passed. I was referred to him by a friend before my exams. Please friends I recommend you to mr DAVID. The man has the key to getting your exam
Finally I am amongst those who talk about the tutorials of Mr DAVID 😊 I have gone through many tutors but had no positive results till I found a recommendation about Mr DAVID, he has help me pass my ASVAB EXAM , am so glad.
I've gotta lose around 120 pounds for the military, what other advice can you give me? I've done dieting and cardio, but what else could I do along with that?
Big James i watched a lot of youtube videos so i could better understand why dieting and cardio work like they do! Working out becomes easier when you understand the science behind it!
@@TheBenAllen. I think you forgot the new crossfit based pt test, the ACFT. I believe that, if not right now, then definitely by the time Papi Ambrose get to basic training, the APFT will be out and the new ACFT will be in.
golfery I didn’t forget I just assumed he was asking about right now, the ACFT isn’t standard Army wide until October, but is being implemented at some basic trainings. Either way it’s a 2 mile run for both. Not to sure on the time requirements though.
@@TheBenAllen. I imagine that some people, even with training and preparation, *ARE STILL* going to get whooped by and possibly fail the ACFT. I'm a 92G and supposedly my MOS is in the "significant" category. Looks like, for example, we have to do 180 pounds on the deadlift. No sexism, because I know some real physically strong women (they're typically larger women), but I know quite a few very small girls in my MOS that it would be pretty difficult to imagine deadlifting 180 pounds once, let alone three times (I've had one girl tell me straight up she'd fail the deadlift) My company commander told me straight up that his wife, also on active duty and is a captain, is ETS'ing this year in part because she can get a decent job outside the military but also so she won't have to deal with the new ACFT. Then there are people who still mess up the leg tuck. So it's easier to pass for some people (even if harder to max) but to other people, it's easier to fail.
i think im like 220ish and iirc the recruiter i talked to for the marines said i need to get to 195ish lbs. its doable im just discouraged i guess lmao
Hey man i know your activr on here and i hope you answer so im 16 but i want to be fit for when i join its been about 2 week and in stuck on not being able to do more then 12 pushups at a time do you have a video i might be doing them wrong or idkkk
I remember my recruiter just lied about my weight lol. I was heavy at around 180+lbs at 5"7. I guess as a dependent we get special treatment lol. Never went through MEPS so that helps. 😁 At the end of basic I was around 140lbs.
@@trinidydae I joined in Germany while I was a dependent. So there was no MEPS. My medical and all that was with my primary doctor. Everything else as far as paperwork was done by the recruiter. I just flew out from there. Took all but 1 month.
Ben Allen I am, it’s just hard to meet the surplus without an appetite. And i workout an hour each morning. High weight low reps. That said I’m only on my 3rd week of working out. Hopefully my body will get used to it soon and i’ll get hungrier. My recruiter is helping me a lot by saying i’m 5’11 3/4 instead of 6ft so i don’t have to gain AS much.
I was in the same boat. Tried eating a caloric surplus, eating healthy, working out. Didn’t gain a pound. What finally worked for me was eating fast food everyday, twice a day. My doctor hated it but it fucking worked. Gained 25 pounds. I’m leaving for basic Monday.
@@junelledobbs Aww so what happened? How long do you have to wait to ship out now? I'm prior service army who's in the process of reenlisting! I needed a waiver which has been approved! I'm just waiting for MEPS to do their part and give me a MEPS date. So far I'm on day 11 of waiting to hear from MEPS. Hope it doesn't take months just to get a physical 🤦
@@mirandarobinson25 Yes, I have! 2 weeks ago. Just like my initial enlistment, they sending me to get a psychiatrist consult which I still do not have a date for. So 2 weeks and counting right now for a consult date. Awww don't be, make sure you review/study your weakness and you should be fine!

Eat lots of celery because it takes alot of calories to digest it. Cold water also because calories are needed to heat it up.
Also Special K and probiotics such as Activia, and Oatmeal (not the instant stuff) also helps. As a guy those options may seem feminine as females don't like to eat however as males we do but does work and help us curb our appetites
Thats a myth. there no zero calorie food nonsense. Eat celery because you like it and want a good source of fiber.
@BlueEyes-ii4zz i also wouldn't recommend special k as you aren't getting a lot of volume for the calories you're eating. The rolled oats are good though

No sexism, because I know some real physically strong women (they're typically larger women), but I know quite a few very small girls in my MOS that it would be pretty difficult to imagine deadlifting 180 pounds once, let alone three times (I've had one girl tell me straight up she'd fail the deadlift)
My company commander told me straight up that his wife, also on active duty and is a captain, is ETS'ing this year in part because she can get a decent job outside the military but also so she won't have to deal with the new ACFT. Then there are people who still mess up the leg tuck.
So it's easier to pass for some people (even if harder to max) but to other people, it's easier to fail.
golfery ohh yeah it’s definitely going to be a killer test!
Already in the process but I’m 2% over the body fat requirement does it take lose that?

This is at @ anyone I am 5’9 and 115 to 120 will I pass height and Weight
I remember my recruiter just lied about my weight lol. I was heavy at around 180+lbs at 5"7. I guess as a dependent we get special treatment lol. Never went through MEPS so that helps. 😁
At the end of basic I was around 140lbs.
Really?!
How they heck did you not go through meps?
…how did you not go through MEPS?
@@trinidydae I joined in Germany while I was a dependent. So there was no MEPS. My medical and all that was with my primary doctor. Everything else as far as paperwork was done by the recruiter. I just flew out from there. Took all but 1 month.
@@zacharylewis417 Hey! Did you have any issue getting H/W during basic or reception?
I need to gain weight unfortunately, unlike 99% of the people trying to meet weight requirements.
All i know is eat loads of healthy food and workout
You have to eat in a caloric surplus!
Ben Allen I am, it’s just hard to meet the surplus without an appetite. And i workout an hour each morning. High weight low reps. That said I’m only on my 3rd week of working out. Hopefully my body will get used to it soon and i’ll get hungrier. My recruiter is helping me a lot by saying i’m 5’11 3/4 instead of 6ft so i don’t have to gain AS much.
JokerzheeYT2 you got this man, just keep at it!
I was in the same boat. Tried eating a caloric surplus, eating healthy, working out. Didn’t gain a pound. What finally worked for me was eating fast food everyday, twice a day. My doctor hated it but it fucking worked. Gained 25 pounds. I’m leaving for basic Monday.
I've got to lose 20 pounda

Can u give the link?
I have questions if I can some how message you.

@@junelledobbs Aww so what happened? How long do you have to wait to ship out now? I'm prior service army who's in the process of reenlisting! I needed a waiver which has been approved! I'm just waiting for MEPS to do their part and give me a MEPS date. So far I'm on day 11 of waiting to hear from MEPS. Hope it doesn't take months just to get a physical 🤦
@@dpaper7962 Have you made it to MEPS yet ? I’m just recently talked to a recruiter and am scheduled to take my test on the 18th... super nervous 😩
@@mirandarobinson25 Yes, I have! 2 weeks ago. Just like my initial enlistment, they sending me to get a psychiatrist consult which I still do not have a date for. So 2 weeks and counting right now for a consult date. Awww don't be, make sure you review/study your weakness and you should be fine!
