    i think a lot of people who TRULY want special operations have stories like this. Like its something youve been into or it isnt. I think a lot of the people who havent been out in the wilderness or havent been into the military theme either dont go or they quit because it hasnt been something theyve always wanted to do. Which goes into the mindset of Do you really want to be (blank). It can be anything in life not just military.

    There should be a way to make the link to your website blue and clickable, although I’m not sure how. People are lazy (like me! lol) you’d probably get more traffic if it was a direct link. I swear I’ve seen it in other peoples channels
    Keep making vids and we’ll keep watching, brother 💪

    Hey boss thanks for the insight, I’m an option 40 sitting at 68W AIT but I’m counting down the days to RASP. As far as working out do you think a regular push-up, or T push-up gains the best results for effort

    • @zachthedangerranger
      @zachthedangerranger  Před rokem +1

      Honestly don't think the T-push up will help you make any kinds of gains push up wise. Would be better off doing regular push up variations (diamond, wide, narrow, elevated, etc)

    When NCOs play fuck fuck games is it purely out of boredom or are they testing me for something? My squad leader who was an E5 was telling me to tell another E5 in the platoon to fuck himself or he would scuff me up. The other E5 told me that if I told him to fuck himself, he would scuff me up. I knew I was fucked either way, but I'm not sure if one answer was better than the other or what they were trying to see or if it was all for fun. Ultimately I listened to my squad leader and after that it was a game of "Do pushups" and "get up" between the two

    yo danger. so i was planning on going with an 11x option 40, but when i was talking to the recruiter, i told him i had asthma when i was young and he said that disqualifies me from doing an option 40, even if i got a waiver for my asthma which i obviously plan on getting. my numbers are pretty damn good, well over the minimums, and i still want to do rangers. if i went with just a regular 11x, would i still be able to go to RASP ans tryout after airborne school and all that shit? or am i just shit out of luck and cant tryout for rangers?
