hello. i am thinking of considering applying for the army in the near future and i am trying to figure out what i could do for training so i am prepared for the fitness test and stuff. i have read through most of what i can find that has already been posted in here about it, but my situation isnt like the ones i have read about so far.
in the time before i would go for my fitness tests and whatnot, i will be working full time as a roofer. the problem with this is that roofing is a pretty time and energy consuming job. i would be getting up for work at 5:30 every day and by the time i got cleaned up and whatnot at the end of the day, it would be about 8:00 to 9:00 at night. that doesnt leave a lot of room for running and stuff. so my question i guess is, what could i do to still train effectively while working around my schedule?
i am planning on doing a workout after work at least three times a week and working up to every night, but really the only days i can actually run would be on sundays and every other saterday (its not wise to run at night where i live out in the country on the highways. its a good way to become road kill!). that isnt a whole lot of running. now obviously roofing is a tramendous workout in itself so that will help out a lot, but it still doesnt help me with like cardio and stuff really.
any suggestions?
