- Instructional video on how to administer the pull-up/push-up hybrid for the Physical Fitness Test.
If you have questions about the test or any other component of the Marine Corps Physical Fitness Program, please contact tecom.forcefitness@usmc.mil.
for a second I thought the chart said "84 Pull Ups" as a max requirement and I was mighty intimidated until I paused and took a closer look
David Katz me too.
Reading is fundamental Marines lol!
Prefer to look straight ahead when doing my pushups. This allows the body to stay in a straighter plain and allows the body to lower closer to the deck.
What limits how low you can go is your chest, not your head.
holy shit they make it look easy af
freidrick mace they look like machines. its impressive.
Bob Ryker lote of upper body strength but less focus on stamina and flexibility
Bob Ryker but still, they have the lowest obesity rate of any US service, so thats good!
probably saw Navathebeast doing push ups lol jk
the guy and one girl are technically doing chin ups
Brennan A pullups are supposed to be harder but better
😂true nava doesn’t do push-ups right
Doing? Did-what? Ing= Hawaiian for--speech. No English, ing either.
yup
Correct! However, they're accepted by the Corps.
Hello I'm from France and just want to say: Along with our Foreign Legion and Troupes de Marine, the USMC are the best troops in the world! I love the USA! Without the military institutions, our countries would be going down morally! You guys are the guardians!
How to prepare for service in U.S.M.C? Physically. I just had a physical education class and almost died, so I'm pretty weak...
Robert328851 a lot of push-ups and crunches every night, max out. and then once you get stronger move to lifting weights. don't lift heavy weights though, you want lean muscle so you can breathe easier and move faster. so lift some lighter weights but do more reps
Run, run, and run some more. Then, like Memelord said, just max out your pushups and situps everyday (and pullups if you have a place to do them)
Robert328851 Go to a park or your back yard and do 100ft sprints till you think you're going to die. Alternate between sprints and running a mile every day. Shoot for the best time you can on the mile runs and eventually move them up to a mile and a half to two miles. If you have a doorframe try getting a pull up bar for it, do as many pull ups as you can whether your palms are facing you or facing away from you, you can even change grips so long as your feet do not touch the ground. Push ups will help if you keep doing them every day, my suggestion is to do them every time you get kinda bored, but don't over-do it. Sit ups are crucial to your performance on almost everything you will do and also your sit up score. When you are working out make sure to go all the way up to the knees, but when you're doing an IST or PFT get your elbows to just touch the thighs because it saves a good 4 inches of work. Planks for 60-120 seconds at a time in sets of 3-5 with breaks help with sit ups. Good luck and Semper Fidelis!
Run and lift. Run 5-6 days a week; if you're new, run for a given period of time (like 30 minutes) and try to go farther each week. Lift weights; pushing things one day, pulling the next, legs the third, and repeat. Crunches; do a hundred no matter how long it takes (one workout) and do max reps "pyramid" style - 2:00, break, 1:30, break, 1:00, break, and 0:30. Go talk to a recruiter and say, "Teach me." Or go the simple route, get P90X, and follow the plan.
Did u ever join the marines?
Taking my test tomorrow at MEPS, doing the push ups
@navathebeast they saw your army PFT video 😂
do you have the option to do chin ups or pull ups? because chin ups are considerably easier do to the fact your biceps help
That's how we do pushups in the Navy. 1:57 😃
Males and females should have the same standards
But combat situations don't comply to gender differences. If the female marine is going to do the same job as the male one, she should go through the same tests...it might mean less females in the corps, but standards should not be lowered in the name of gender inclusion.
That was the point of the Corps changing the standards. Instead of the alternative flex arm hang, females now do pull ups. Both have the option to do push ups, they just don't receive the opportunity for a perfect score.
Julian Klimczyk you're an idot
freidrick mace First, you spelled idiot wrong, and second, how to fuck am I an idiot for believing in equality?
It isn't about rights, it's about physical endurance. Look at the woman doing pull ups, she is obviously not as strong as the man.
is this meant to respond to Nava's push-ups/crunches? ^0^
United State's Marine Corp's God Bless You all For Your Service 🇺🇸🇺🇸🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🌏🌎🌍🎀
Chin ups are allowed to be substituted for pull ups?
If we're going to do push-ups for a test, we MUST do them the same way as the Army grades their Soldiers so as to prepare our Marines for Airborne and Ranger School.
Like I tell Everyone, regardless of the Branch or MOS that they're going into,
Master These Exercises With These Scores:
-Pull Ups/Chin Ups: 10 Reps Minimum, 25 Maximum
-Push Ups: 65 Minimum, 100 Maximum in 2 Minutes Or Less
-Sit Ups: 65 Minimum, 100 Maximum in 2 Minutes Or Less
-3 Mile Run: A Time Of 24 Minutes and 45 Seconds for a Minimum Score, And A Time of 18 Minutes or Less For A Maximum Score!
-Elbow Plank- 2 Minutes and 30 Seconds for a Minimum Score, and 5 Minutes for A Maximum Score!
-12 Mile Hike With a 50 Pound Pack, 3 Hours for a Minimum Score, 2 Hours and 30 Minutes for a Maximum Score!
Trust Me, You Don't Want To Go To Any Boot Camp Not Being In Any Kind Of Shape!
So Like I Tell Everyone!
Master Those 7!
Or Just Look Up The Navy SEALs Physical Screening Test, Master That with the Maximum Scores, (Including the Swim Portion.)
Just Make the Run on it 3 Miles and Complete it in the time listed above, and as well as the Planks and the 12 Mile Hike!
Hey can you give some tips of how can I increase pushups. i am 17 and can do 62 in a row
@@rookie1491 62 in a row ain't bad...is it no more than 2 Minutes?
My best advice is to try to get to 65 in 2 Minutes.
Try to do 5 sets of 25 Reps. Try to have the 25 Reps completed in 30 seconds each.
Do this for a month. Then time yourself in 2 Minutes and go from there.
Keep raising the bar by 5 Reps. So if you can do 65, try for 70, then 75, 80 etc.
And soon before you know it you'll be pumping out 100 Plus Reps In 2 Minutes!
I also recommend that you do this routine for Sit Ups!
I sure hoped that I helped. If you have anymore questions feel free to ask!
Then once you have Mastered that do
@@SuperColonel91 i did that in 1:30 minute i do calisthenics so i do one weighted push session and one endurance session a week i am doing 3×40 pushups on endurance session and other exercises too so i am gonna replace it with 5×25 as you suggested and gonna tell you about my progress in a month thankyou
@@SuperColonel91 and how can I increase my pull ups i can do 11 in a row
@@rookie1491 that ain't bad either...5x6 for the Pull Ups...how are your situps and Elbow Planking?
Does anybody knows is it allowed to do wide push ups in this army test, they are much easier
I want to use a small piece of this video in my video can i use
My right wrist, used and pop-- like hit with a bat? In push-up pos?
What are the top numbers in two minutes?
Yo, can we send this to the Air Force?
This is the Army PFT brief. They just replaced Soldier with Marine and Marching Surface with Deck
Down dog and up dog for resting? Or extended arms plank.
Notice how his head is facing down, to where his nose almost touches the ground. I fucking HATED when some instructors/judges would tell me to lift my head to a forward facing position. That is not correct 1, and 2 it would close the windpipe making it harder to breath thus less air thus more fatigue and less push ups.
rah
Taco Man boot
Nothing wrong with loving the corps.
@@Vince-tc3eq that big green weenie loves you right back
Chin-up (palms facing you) are much easier than pull-ups (palms facing away from you). Are chin-ups allowed now? Just for women?
They've always been allowed for both. Chin-ups and pull-ups are both called pull-ups in the Marines.
Chin-ups are also much harder to get a perfect score with.
@navathebeast
The Viking 916 since he can't do them properly lol
Mashy dude= Warzone placed, chest. Chaldean-- warzon= clean worded.
Is that SSgt Garcialopez?
Ooorah! 🫡👍
So are they actually using this for the pft now?
KainusGulch If I remmeber correctly, yes, however if you do pushups instead of pullups and got full scores in all three categories, the maximum score you can get is 270. Also, the other categories have higher standards than before.
Thanks. I need to work on my pull ups more then.
KainusGulch Definitely and not to mention the three mile run. That run, for me at least, is the killer
Why isn’t it required to go all the way down..?
I think it's spelt physical, but rahhh
haha whoop
whoops
"Spelled" in the U.S.,"spelled" or "spelt" in just about everywhere else in the English speaking world.
Stupid stupied man
I'm not able to do push-ups even after training for 2 years please tell me why I've also looked up tutorials but they won't help no matter what I do :-(
You have to do half push ups first, then slowly keep extending until you can do 1 full push up. That's the way I did it.
💋💋💋💋💋💋
I am hoping to show my transformation soon!
Evidently, someone didn't do their "Spelling for Marines" MCI...
Dude wasnt even fully extending when she said to lol
"Phisical"
Forgot to do an MCI I see.
wow
Who else has to do hand reliese push ups
The guys form, I can’t do heaps of pull ups but at least I do them right...
how do i become a marine ?
Darren Politte If you have to ask this question you shouldn't be a Marine..
Larry Sanders I ment how do I talking to a recruiter cause that's what I'm nervous about
Darren Politte There nothing to be Nervous about Recruiters are just like u. u just have to be relaxed with them, of course the very first meeting with them might spark some nervousness but the Recruiters are there to get u ready to ship out for wherever you choose to go
Larry Sanders thank you
As a former Marine I recommend beating your head against a wall for the term of your enlistment to begin with. Once you are numb from that your enlistment itself will be a breeze.
ELBOWS TUCKED TO THE SIDE OF THE BODY!!!!!!! CRIKEY!!!!
Welcome to the Marine Corps, where the opportunities are equal… just not the standards #FeminismIsCancer
Maybe because men are stronger than women, and really can't be expected to be just as equal
@@the_sound_of_art then they should not have equal rights
@@the_sound_of_art "Just as equal" is a perfect oxymoron. Please stop the madness.
@@skanda1832 "Look at me I know one language" You don't have anything better to do than go around replying to 3yr old comments???
I know I'm too old to enlist (52 years old). I'm lucky if I can do two pull-ups in perfect form.
the minimum number is 3, if you got to 3 you could take the physical
Love Those U.S. Marine Amazons 5'8" 38*28*38 100% Women Warriors. Semper-Fi. (smile)
The female with purple shoes was doing chin ups.
Starrrrting position….MOVE!
Show this video to nava the beast lmfao
And if, have a weak neck-- look forward-- and then, down-- repeat. PTSD is, this exact-- trauma experience-- plus crap.
Hey I was in the Army and its the same. Go figure
that guy was doing chin ups. not the same as a pullup at all
Yeah, uh I can't do pull ups.
those are chin ups not pull ups
If a 19 pushups is good enough for females to do the same duties as men then why that he'll do men have to do 42 which is more than double??
Double standards
Why exactly are the standards for women different? The US Marines do not want equally capable soldiers?
That girl got some knockers on her
second
damn you can really see her triceps moving 1:00
PSYCHICAL FITNESS TEST AND NO PUSH UPS ALLOWED THEY SHOULD DO TEN MILLION OR I'M FAT AS FUN
if you can't do a 300 pft score, you don't belong in my Marine Corps. did this shit till it hurts and grew from it!!! Buck up, mother's of America!! Semper Fidelis,Marines!!!!!
I know plenty of guys in better shape for combat that can't run 18:00 on their PFT...
Phil M don't listen to this shit she's a woman and has lower standards for the PFT
Leslie could very well be a man's name. Think Leslie Nelson. Anyway I was far from a 300 pft but I could wrench the heck out of a helicopter. Let's face it you want to use that 300 pft before you get to the fight or you willingly to let me squeak by the pft working 18hrs a day to get a bird in the air to bring you home? I thought so.
*Where are the feminists demanding the same standards for male and female?*
No man is going to be doing push ups
Why on earth would there be different standards for men and women when the job is based on life or death? So, if you pass with lower standards, you're now a liability to yourself, your team and your nation. What happened to common sense? Who on earth is making these kinds of decisions for our nation's safety? Good Lord
BS, do your damn pull ups.
Those are chin ups not pull ups 😲😲
