My name is Chuck Im 37 years old and trying to get back in shape to re enlist in the Army National Guard. 9 years ago I was in the guard and failed the physical training test and was blocked from re enlistment. Recently I set out to see if I can now get back in and found that if I do I will have 6 months to be able to pass the test or be booted out. I want to do what I can to be able to acomplish this and have started working out at my local YMCA. Today I tried to do the simulation PT test run on one of the treadmills and found that I couldnt even run a mile before I had to quit. I'm not really overweight by much but i am seriously out of shape..at least to me I am. I hope to be able to get help from this site to accomplish my goal.. again hello -------------- Chuck Don\'t let the fear of striking out keep you from playing the game

You can literally re-shape yourself in 6 months if you stick with it. I don't know how experienced you are but browse the site and educate yourself a bit then there is a lot of help here.
