My name is Frank and I am in Northern California. I spent 8 years inthe Navy 4 as Aircrew with S.E.R.E 4 as Navy Police I got out and spent the next 8 as a cop in Northern California. I am 37 and realized that I need a challenge so I started talking to a recruiter and hey I can rejoin! So I have been busting my ass went from 245 to 215 in three months do 3 miles in 25 minutes and 1 in 7 min. got the situps and pushups down whats killing me is the damn pull ups, been doing row machines and other crap to get the pull up muscles into shape. This is probly nothing for you guys, but after several thousand donuts and a few hundred kegs of beer let me tell you thats pretty good. I am using the intitial ranger PFT as my goal. Two weeks I go to MEPs will see what happens. I know 37 is pretty old for this stuff, but you know what they say it's all about heart. I look forward to hearing from some of you guys or any recommendations you have. I have my own web site up for PSD/PMC stuff.

Take care ....Frank.
