How the fuck is this different than just getting fit? Read the sticky.

I'm running and lifting. That's all there is to it.

Starting strength if you're just starting out and do couch to 5k

Get good at calisthenics and running

Go ask your recruiter.
Stay the fuck away from here.

cute

If you lift, stop or at least cut down. Start running at least 3 times a week, gradually increasing the distance and speed. Alternate between long slow jogs, medium distance fast paced runs and sprint/HIIT sessions.
Do bodyweight a lot more. Smash out push ups, sit ups, pull ups and dips.

Once youre able to meet the requirements for runs, push ups, pull ups etc, then start lifting again, focusing on explosive strength, i.e shoulders, legs and chest. Also do trap exercises, itll help with carrying a heavy bergen.

Once you do that, start going on weighted marches; pack up a backpack with dog food, and do multiples of 4 miles, which youre aiming to do 4 miles per hour over undulating and rough terrain. Pack the backpack with cans of dog food, books, water etc, anything but weight plates; weight plates fuck up the weight distribution and will scrape your back the fuck up. Gradually increase distance, weight and pace.

Good luck breh

Run, do push ups, pull ups, sit ups. Don't overthink it
