today i'm gonna be trying the marine corps physical fitness test now i've tried the past
for the air force the psd for the navy the prt for the navy never done the pft i'm here with first
tennis surf yeah i'll be proctoring this training evolution along with eight motivated marines back
here they may look fast at running but i'm gonna beat every single one of them this includes now
correct me if i'm wrong pull-ups sit-ups and then a three-mile run who wants to be my partner yeah
what's your name again sheen sheen's gonna be a partner partner for the sit-ups how many crunches
can you knock out normally 120 120 don't let me beat you and don't let me beat you on the run
okay let's get into legends hey we got lance corporal mclean he's going to be
our demonstrator for uh pull-ups so the starting position he's going to go ahead and hop on the bar
dead hang he's going to go ahead and do a full pull up his chin is going to go over the bar
and he's going to go back down there's going to be no kipping no swinging and he can't bring his
knees above his waistline and then he's going to go all the way back down that's the proper
pull of form all right pull-ups my partner did 30 and i'm competing with him in my head but i'm 240
pounds which is not an excuse so let's do it start me off at 10. begin one nice two three
i do this for a living you guys do too though kind of yeah that's 13 13.
13. half of my partner okay i'll get you on the sit-ups
appreciate it hey so marines can do uh push-ups or pull-ups pull-ups are preferred you can't get
max points with the push-ups you can only get 70 points so proper form for the push-ups maureen's
gonna be in the push-up position he's gonna do push-up when i say execute he's gonna break
90 and then go back up he's gonna do as many as he can for two minutes or until he hits his max score
if the marine raises his hand or foot off the deck his uh score ends right there so that's
the proper form for push-ups and the reason we did pull-ups is because you are able to score
max yeah absolutely yeah and pull us best simulate uh combat fitness all right we're
gonna go ahead and start two minutes three two one execute one two three four four five six
seven eight nine ten fifty he's gonna hit 120 58 59 60 61 62 63 64. 99 30 seconds a hundo

hold on a second my abs are cramping i'm not used to that okay i need your help now
ah guys if you don't train for that that's that could be a little tough especially my torso is a
little heavy i'm doing this without prep so thanks for your motivation and y'all's motivation i'm
cramping a little bit i didn't eat my bananas this morning if i see headphones i'm going to
tell them why did you just go like this the whole time yeah hey the last evolution in the pft is a
three mile run we're here at lake o'neal got our marines here austin see how they do on the run
hopefully these legs can hold up you guys may be carrying me out on a stretcher three two one go
just starting out current strategy pace save some energy for the end
and make it happen baby let's go hair's free oxygen's free
running is easy it's not like the water almost half a mile feeling good baby
man this was kind of uphill that going back it's kind of downhill a little sometimes it's good to
just close your eyes and just tune out everything else a lot of times your thoughts get in your head
like right now i'm running a little slower than i would like but you just got to keep pushing
got to just do it almost two miles in feeling okay achilles hams quads getting a little tight
i'm coming out the gate doing this with no practice
i'm not necessarily a runner i train for weights strength stuff like that really good 2.3 miles
in 0.7 to go nine minute pace sometimes those marines would finish up real quick
they'll go back and they'll motivate other marines that are finishing up the pft
help them get across that line quicker 24 59. that was a good one
i feel good it's more pain in my legs than my achilles more than anything i'm not a runner i
don't run on a consistent basis but yeah my my can't talk my body weight is a severe hindrance
but what was the minimum time 28 minutes would be the minute okay minimum of 28
max was 18 18 as lieutenant colonel said i hit it 24 59 my partner ran off and left me i appreciate
that where'd you run uh 21 20 30. 20 30. you were taking it easy right uh no i was dying
that makes you feel a little better somebody ran hit what did you do at 18. i did 1743
and he beat me actually he ran to 1743 come over here don't be shy
oh did you come over here you ran to 1743 no you you don't have to go back over there
these guys are shot sorry would you run 1736 36 that's crazy we got some quick runners out here
let's talk about my partner here you left me in the dust you demolished me on sit-ups what did
he get so we plugged the numbers for sergeant patrick my man did 30 pull-ups 116 crunches
a run time of 2130 that puts you at a 278 that's a first-class pft oh yeah there you go
hey so austin we calculated up your score we got 13 pull-ups
70 crunches your run time was 24-59 passing is a 150. drum roll hey we got a 165 165 out of 300.
so that's uh that's a third class pft not too shabby i don't want to say i did good because
people watching this they may shoot for the minimums i don't want you guys to shoot for
the minnows okay i'm coming out cold getting my best shot i'm happy that i passed but
obviously i want to be a little faster i want to be a little better at the sit-ups okay that's it
let's go i'm kidding thank you guys so much for watching thank you marine corps for allowing me
to come out here you know the navy doesn't even do this navy is not cool marine corps is cooler
