BCT questions

Just so I can answer the questions thats been asked 37849267429 times. haha

1.) Is it hard?

Yes and no. Its always hard to push yourself over a limit that you never knew existed. Both physically and mentally. Physically wise…I’m out of shape. So to get active again and using every inch of muscle on my body every day is a bitch. The pain hurts, it burns like hell, and you’re at that point where you wanna scream it out. Almost every day your sore. And you wanna know what sucks?…you do the same shit the next day. But you just gonna push through…

“Endure the pain and drive on.”

“Train through the pain soldiers, train through”

Mentally wise… just keep focusing on the prize. Don’t let shit get to you. Keep telling yourself that you can do it. Think about why you did this. If its for your family, think about them.

“You have to really want it”

2.) What’s it like?

its bootcamp…enough said. lol

3.) What did you do?

So far…pt, victory tower, gas chamber, pt, markmanship, o-courses, pt…ummm…pt and pt. haha

4.) Did it change you?

…I’ll answer this question at a different post.

But anymore questions just ask me.

currently watching basic training videos

I’m starting to get the chills. I cant even explain what i’m feeling. I’m excited, nervous, scared, and pumped up. Everyday i wake up i think about how many more days i have left. I cherish every night in my bed, shower i take, and every meal i eat knowing that it will soon be missed.

i bet by the beginning of next month thats when all the nerves will kick in.

right now im watching videos on the gas chamber. crazy stuff. every single person i talked to about basic training all said to “beware of the gas chamber”. sucky part is…you do that on the 2nd or 3rd week. oh welp..better to get it over with.
