Your videos have helped me a lot already. My MEPS date got pushed back until further notice, but I've been capitalizing on this time running, push up, pull ups, studying the for the ASVAB, learning the soldiers creed, rank structure, all that. I'm 31 years old, so I'm pretty sure I'll be the oldest dude there, assuming I pass MEPS with my ol paw paw ass, but I'm good. Your videos are extremely helpful and thank you for that.
Hey thanks man, I appreciate that! There was no age in basic training, it was cool when the older guys shared their crazy life stories with us as well and also The Drill sergeants are most likely gonna put you in a leadership position tho because your most likely the most mature.
Christian Turner New York or California? 😂. I’m from ny. I had a hand surgery so I have to get that checked up before the physical at meps. I started this process in February.
My brother is 34, and has been saying he was going since he was 18. I’m so glad to see someone post a comment saying that they were over 30 when they joined. I hope he finds at least one other “older” person.
I did basic/boot camp at Fort Sill, OK from Dec.81-Feb.82, went there a couple of days after Christmas, it was cold, the training was tough and rough, for the new recruits shipping out just do what the Drill Instructors tell you what to do and you will be just fine they want you to pass and transform into a US soldier and graduate.
oh, so much for not cursing lol You was doing sooooo goood. but either way... be you! The phases are red, white and blue huh? cool! Holy CRAP!!! lol 3 to 5 times a day? lol oh wait... thats kinda average huh 20 people and only 3 brooms. guess there was a lot of sharing Was that really Ibrahim singing? he was the best!
I went to Fort Sill a few months ago, they give you 10 minute breaks, typically every hour depending on what you're doing. If you absolutely gotta go, ask a Drill Sergeant. They're there to train you and make you tough, but they're not unreasonable. Just be sure to put a little pep in your step.
Dude, I can't enlist because meps is closed! My medical waiver got approved and now all I have to do is retake the asvab and enlist 😂😭 so I've been working out at home and studying those asvab questions 🙏 thanks for your videos!
They let you record in Basic?? You even have cell phones?? We were not allowed to even have phones on us when i was in ('10). we would be dropping if we are even seen with a phone on us.
Your videos are HILARIOUS. You are so funny. I’m shipping to fort sill here in a week or so. Date hasn’t changed due to corona. I really liked the videos from your BCT that you shared in this video. I like to see what it’s actually going to look like.
You get recycled by failing a mandatory training event during basic training it’s not just PT tests, it could be from falling out of a ruck march to failing marksmanship. Your gonna improve in basic training but don’t wait until you go to basic to start improving. A good way to improve your running is practice good form, breathing, and do 60 30s, sprint for 30 seconds max effort and rest for a minute. Trust me, you don’t wanna be a recycle do everything you can now to prevent that. I believe in you 💯
Let’s just say the moment you become a recycle you’ve just extended your stay even longer in basic training land, definitely not a position you want to be in.
Went to benning back in 2012. Spent a week at reception and it honestly is the f'n worse bro. If basic training was like reception i would have hung myself no cap
Watched a ton of your vids and Matt wards... can’t go to meps until this is clean so might also memorize the soldiers creed and more asvab stuff. What are you doing in quarentine bro?
@@flasskk7827 A LOT OF COD, sleep, watch videos on how to be a better content creator, editing tutorials, cry because I wanna go home, make videos, run around the base, reply to comments. It's pretty dead over here man, we can't go past 40 miles off the post as well so we're stuck here but things could be worse so I try not to complain.
Im currently in AIT here, I went to basic Training here! Here's some tips: -Always follow the Drill Sergeant's directions. -Don't talk back to a Drill Sergeant. -And, always use your personal time, studying your Army Basic Knowledge, because will randomly ask you questions, if you get them wrong, you either get yelled at or smoked. -Also use your time, doing streches and some other exercises, especially in Red Phase. E 1/40 ❗
I ship August 3rd , MOS 68W. Coming from someone who’s small & not really fit, was the physical exercise really bad ? I’m just scared I won’t be able to do certain stuff
@@GABE33X thank you very much. As much as I was wanting to hurry up and go, I'm glad I have time to prepare. I joined the National Guard so I will be attending RSP drills before I leave which will be a big help and I have an awesome recruiter that has helped every step of the way! It may be a little tougher for me, I'm 34 and will be 35 while in BCT. Its nothing but motivation for me to do better.
You’ll be fine don’t let your age be a factor! Just be mentally ready have the right mind set! When I went through BCT in 2010 people your age and older where In my company and were one of the best
I hear people saying that yes there leave day is getting pushed back for basic but mine is still up for June 22nd can’t wait! Corna shit tho.... damn it’s dumb can’t even go to the store and get basic stuff like water or soap nun.. Btw you’re videos hella helpful thx.
I got to Benning may 5th and I’m not shipping to basic till June 2nd maybe I was at 30th for 30 days and now I’m at camp Kelly we might have a 20 week cycle instead of a 22 week cycle I heard maybe even a 14 but Thts just wishful thinking I wish I knew this was Ganna happen I would have stayed home
@@AaronbTV ayyyyyy what's up man? What I would like to see is a video on what it's like to be a 68E soon as this virus lifts and you go working at Stone again
Okay so im 16 my brother is leaving to go to the army soon so i thought id check out your channel since me and him never talk but that's irrelevant and expected and frankly ive gotten so used to it that i don't care but my main thing i wanna say/ask is what was your schedule like eating wise that made you gain so much weight but also get jacked cause im weighing in at 125Ibs with 18.6 BMI and 7% body fat and i think i really need to bulk up to gain more muscle in return after my bulk
#Aaron, wants to ask who was shipping on April 14 to Fort Jackson but his/her date changed and to which date❓ I am yet to get my new date. Bro, very very informative videos. Have watched tons of ya videos. Big up❗❗👍👊
Idk if this helps but I was originally gonna ship April 13 to Fort Leonard Wood but it was changed to May 18th Fort Sill. Check the future soldier's website and/or ask your recruiter.
I was supposed to ship out March 24th to fort Jackson and it got pushed back to April 28th fort sill. You’ll probably get a date soon I just received my new date last week
ignore the name and pic its my little sister😂, im an 18 yr old female and so i ship june 30th and ive never been able to do a pushup ive been in sports all my life i can run, i can do situps but i cant do a pushup or pullup. ive been trying to get my arms stronger with like girl pushups and tricep workouts but im still scared i wont be able to do a pushup by the time i ship. at basic were there girls there that had trouble doing pushups? how strict are the drill sergeants about form and stuff?
Do push-ups everyday! It’s not gonna come over night but if you practice everyday, by the time you go to basic your gonna be straight. Also it’s important that you practice doing the push-up your gonna get graded on, “girl pushups” are good to help build strength but the form of a push-up does not change for girls and boys while at basic, so that’s why It’s important that you practice how you play. Also your gonna feel accomplished af when you finally are able to do however many push-ups you want and your gonna be wayyy ahead of the other females at basic.
@@AaronbTV so u mean if I take leave they gonna deduct them from my annual leave don't they have like free leave moreover coz of this Rona am sure there not gonna allow families to come through for graduation and to come back pick up my few things from home
So basically in every event, you do in basic training there's a streamer for it. Some examples are the company with the best overall PT score, the company that finishes the night combat confidence course the fast and the regular CCC, etc. The awards an individual can get after basic are, Honor Graduate ( be generally good at everything and show leadership), Highest PT, Highest Marksmanship score, and there's one more I think which is unique to each basic training installation on which basic you go to.
I recommend buying a inexpensive watch at walmart for 7 bucks BEFORE you go that can do all the $30-$50 watches there gonna sell you at the PX at basic
Thank you for watching! Tell me who you thought was best and Make sure you guys follow my Instagram! If you guys have any questions ask!

Usually around white/blue phase they start to ease up but they will still smoke you if you constantly keep messing up.

What are the streamers or awards you can receive after basic? or where can I find them?
So basically in every event, you do in basic training there's a streamer for it. Some examples are the company with the best overall PT score, the company that finishes the night combat confidence course the fast and the regular CCC, etc. The awards an individual can get after basic are, Honor Graduate ( be generally good at everything and show leadership), Highest PT, Highest Marksmanship score, and there's one more I think which is unique to each basic training installation on which basic you go to.

We had one guy who served in the Brazilian marines
