1-1-1 Advice?
Hey all. I'm going to take the Army's pre-fitness test tomorrow at 6:30AM. I don't think I'll have any problems especially with the running, but I usually workout in the evening. I was wondering what I should do to get my body in gear so I can preform at my best tomorrow. So other than getting a good nights rest what else should I do?
My second question is about the push up portion of the test. A few weeks ago I couldn't even do 10 push ups. I worked my butt off and in just 2 weeks I was up to 20 (I'd say thats a mighty fine improvement). So being the dummy I am I started doing push ups everyday and not resting at all. Usually once every two nights I'd do 5 sets with 20 reps each and rest 3 minutes between each set. I'm guessing that my fatigued muscles finally caught up with me because at 80 or so push ups I went a pulled a muscle-tendon something in my arm. This put me down for 2 weeks. Now I've got to take the 1-1-1 and I'm wondering if I should push myself on the push ups portion or play it safe to make sure I don't re-injure my arm. I ship fairly soon so I think it might be a smart idea to play it safe.
