Fitness Improvement Guide

Recruit-focused training notes — no bodybuilding, just what improves test scores.

Upper-body endurance — chest, shoulders, triceps, core.

Common mistakes
  • Sagging hips or piked back (no longer a valid rep on test day).
  • Half-range reps — chest must come within a fist of the deck.
  • Locking out elbows in jerky motion that wastes energy.
Beginner
  • 3x submax sets daily. Stop 2 reps before failure.
  • Add incline (hands on a bench) if floor sets stall under 10.
Intermediate
  • Ladders: 1-2-3-4-5-4-3-2-1 with 15-30s rest.
  • One AMRAP every 3 days to track max.
Advanced
  • Density training: 100 quality reps in <8 minutes.
  • Add tempo (3-second lower) one day per week.
Test-day tips
  • Warm up with 10-15 easy reps and shoulder circles.
  • Set a steady cadence — burning out in the first 30s kills your number.
