Speaking as someone who served four years in the Marines (1984-1988), four years in the Army (1988 -1992), three years in the National Guard (1992-1995), I really like what you're doing here with this channel. Very informative for anyone who is thinking of serving in the military. I rejoined the military when I turned 40 ten years ago and served a few more years. The young troops seemed to value my expertise and knowledge, it seemed as though they weren't as well trained as we were back in the eighties and nineties. It's nice to see there are leaders like yourself out there, you have solid strategies to ensure your troops are trained to the best of their abilities.

[@raythompson5087]

I know this is a different era. God bless you and your service. I was a Platoon Commander in the USMC (Infantry) from 1989 to 1993 (well, weapons platoon and XO of a company, as well). I only had a TO platoon when we deployed to Desert Shield. When I first picked up my platoon, I had 22 Marines and 1 Corpsman. A TO platoon at the time was 43 Marines and 3 Corpsmen. Anyway good video. I like that you consult your Platoon Sergeant. After all, the backbone of the service is the NCO. Cheers

[@TheSwoleNurse]

Just wanted to stop by and thank you for your service. No excuses your a better man than I. Thanks for keeping our freedom and our families safe.

Thanks man!

[@ChamorruWarrior]

I was all ready and through MEPS to join the Air Force but then I sprained my collarbone... It's been almost an entire year and it's finally getting to the point where I can do push-ups on my knees. Been a long 9 months but I've never been more determined to get my ass in there and do my fucking best at anything. Thank God for this injury. It has humbled me and given me a new outlook on how I spend my time and helped me grow as a person and I believe this lesson will help me so much when I'm in there.

[@dwkvideos]

i was wondering why your room was so nice and then i remembered youre an officer lmfao.

[@ChickenHawk110]

Hi there. I spent 10 years in the Australian infantry battalions. Your attitude towards physical fitness is fantastic. It definitely improves combat readiness. The only thing I can possibly add, is NEVER order your soldiers to do a task you are not willing or capable of doing yourself. If you ask your troops to swim in sewerage, than you need to prove that you are happy to swim in sewerage yourself. If you "ask" (not order) your troops to do a task, that the troops know you are more than willing to do that task yourself inclusive your your own sweat, blood and tears, than it is likely your troops will follow your orders because of your own demonstrated leadership strength. They will follow your leadership to death. Just my own experience.

[@itstayaaa8280]

Dude you do seem like a seem like a genuine kind person . Honestly I would not get off of just looking at you. You are a prime example of don't judge a book by it's cover . Respect you for your service as well .

wow! wish my PL was a jock like you! I was in Camp Casey in 78-79 and we didn't have squat for a gym! we had enough free weights (really old) at the gym if you can call it that! I'm jealous. I was a tank commander in the 2/72 armor. as far as food goes you ate in the mess hall if you can call it that or you starved. I'm really proud of young leaders like you. I was a jock like you compared to the rest of the guys. 1980 I made the All Army powerlifting team at the 198lb class. I'm glad you guys have a great weight room to use. keep up the good work leading your men. you are a proud 2nd Lt and you should be. God bless you and thank you for your hard work.

[@loumartin8851]

This just popped up for me. I remember 30 years ago, getting my first Infantry platoon, also in Korea, I also had my Ranger tab. After initial intake, and all that hoopla, my Platoon SGT... Staff Sargeant Jennings... and I sat down for a little 1 on 1, free speech time away from our soldiers. He informed me that he would let me know when I was ready to take over his platoon, lol... "Sir, don't you worry, I'll let you know when you're ready to take over, and command MY platoon." (emphasis on the word "my", lol) I learned so much from him.

Nick! Any aspirations for Ran Bat (not just school) or selection/Q man? I did both during my time. Keep that PT up and don't be afraid to aspire to serve in that higher capacity brother. It will also inspire your troops... After OCS (I was also an 11A, prior service though), I actually felt that FTXs drained troop strength/work rate (PT scores always go down) and were NOT good indicators of duties during deployment/battle rhythm. Also, during my 8yr tenure, I never got WHY joes respected the tabs so much-I actually think it is more envy than respect. When youre triple tabbed, ppl ask stupidest questions and look at you like you're another sprees or something. You're still young-put in that 4187 for selection bro, trust me you won't regret it

Dear Nick, as a medical student who has many ROTC personnel who I study with, I often wonder if the jacked and strong public image (as you display) of the military is typical of the average service person, or merely a dedicated and vocal percentage. FYI, you're awesome and an inspiration

[@rodeosoul13]

Theres more fit people in the military than there are in the civilian sector but id say 20-30% of the people on any base are the “buff military image”. Wish it was closer to 90% but alot of peoples jobs dont require them to be in shape

[@13smitch]

I loved the part 4:15ish talking to the Platoon Sergent. I'm USMC Enlisted Infantry. My best Platoon Commander was 3rd generation officer and 2nd generation Naval Academy. My Platoon Commander nailed it. His dad (like his dad before) busted his little (I'm special, I'm an officer) bubble and told him to learn every thing he possibly could from his Platoon Sergent and everyone else under his command. They have experience, you don't. Our first "Get to know you formation" was amazing. The other platoons were pissed off about getting another butter bar. Ours was in a state of shock. "I think he's going to be all right". He then told us they guys history. This was peace time, but our senior enlisted had combat experience. The Platoon Sergent, in this video, seemed to be as diplomatic as possible. What did he think of you? He thought you were a worthless drain on his resources that he had to train. The question in his mind was "will this be an easy trainee?" or "pain in the ass trainee?" DON'T be a pain in the ass. Learn everything you can. If what you "know" contradicts what your enlisted "know" listen. And listen again. Ask why they think they are right. And What can you do better.

@@rasher331 I have a feeling his can go to SHIT in a real hurry...with no opportunity to resign. I know from my time in '86-'88 (as an 2LT, 1LT) that when you were "on" (whether time and energy draining non-war [back then...not counting ongoing Cold War]), you didn't have time for shit. But when you were off, you tried to make the most of it. I had little luck myself because when I got back from field, I was behind two weeks of meetings, staff shit, nuke surety drills (Arty BN S-2). But...that was a long time ago. I was a workout dog but I sadly gave it up during my time with Uncle Sugar. One of the reasons I moved on. And of course, as soon as I resign, Cold war, after 45 yrs, ends and my friend comes to Ft. Polk (yr after I leave) and tells me how there's no training money and he spends all his time...in the gym (humble though it was)!! Gotta luv it.

Or are you going to say that top runs company and capt, too, is an idiot? I guess that goes to BN, where the SGM is in charge of BN maneuver tactics.

[@pabs7135]

[@Lazydogsleep]

I dont know how you guys do it, I couldnt do what you do. you are amazing, thank you for your service!

[@jamesbenjamin7035]

Keep up the good work LT.....remember that your PSG and 1st SGT are watching you every day....there are two reps that follow every new PL....and you know which one is the most important...

[@june11b21]

I'm just here too see what LTs be doing cus mines be MIA until final formation

[@djbenzo]

A PL plans PT?!?! That's NCO business.

[@djbenzo]

Good shit though. Like the vid.

chris L h

[@theopinion9452]

[@Supersaurus21]

Atleast at my unit my pl almost always plans pt.

[@aw4991]

djbenzo its NCO business in the Marine Corps. The army needs an officer to do anything apparently.

[@myman50grand]

Ok, lunch is super 'bro-tastic'.. I love it! (hahaahahahaha) And your Sgt looked a bit nervous

[@elevenbravolearning5695]

NICE! hey LT, glad I found you on YT. 11B2E med ret. I love your format. Keep it up brother.

[@AgeRestrictTheInternet]

liar

[@ty8012]

How can I prove it to you :(

[@AgeRestrictTheInternet]

Come on man, you don't have to prove yourself to a random entity on the internet.

[@AnglerOutdoors]

Yea anyone with the username duuuuuuuuuuuh doesnt need to have anything proven to him.

[@lionkills1]

haha me 2 man. It feels good to be a civilian again, but i do miss the commissary, tricare, and gyms.

[@vsar1938]

Hey Nick I asked a while back if you could do an rotc experiece video and was wondering if you would be able to get that up anytime soon

[@nickbarefitness]

I'll try and get one up.

[@_Dolofonia]

Yeah, I'm planning on going to ROTC in college and I'm really interested in what he has to say.

[@snipedout38]

Hey if you don't mind me asking what ecatly is ROTC and what does it stand for?

[@vsar1938]

+Vipermilsim-22 Reserve Officers' Training Corps during college you take military classes and have pt 3 days a week you can do that for 4 yrs also receiving a scholarship or you can do it for 2 years after you complete a 28 day leadership training course in kentucky. Search army rotc to find out more.

[@snipedout38]

thanks man I appreciate it!

[@charlessteward1069]

Great channel bro. Different twist on the fitness tip with the military perspective. Keep it up. Defintely cool that they don't mind you filming them

[@limited50scla]

Seems like I am going to use some of the meals you Prep. I'm loosing weight. I'm at 245. Was 199.1 last year December 11th. I was 265 in may/June last year. Did a crash diet. My best friend passed away dec. 11, and I stopped caring and gained weight. I have been going to the gym twice a week for the last two week. Trying to make it atleast 5 days. Thank you for your service. You are pushing me to get back into shape and I know it's a long short but would like to get into shape as you are.

[@USMCKong0311]

So is an infantry platoon leader in the Army equivalent to an infantry platoon commander in the Marines?

[@nickhang1630]

Killa-King Kong yes, it is.

[@ButterBeerish]

Guess I'm not going to sleep again right now

[@nickbarefitness]

haha thanks for staying up to watch.

[@zanew5433]

HONESTLY how do people dislike videos that just gives people information about stuff?!?! Must be haters!

[@MrIhavedonuts]

Zane W it’s the fact he is a LT and he comes off in a cocky attitude and likes saying how much HE commands the platoon and having the NCOs execute his orders.

[@김규동-w2p]

Good Evening, sir I am a high school student living in Seoul. I guess you would be re-assigned into somewhere else, since you said that it is fifth month in nine month deployment to South Korea in your video. But still, I really want to thank you for your service from the bottom of my heart. Thank you for your effort to make my country a more safer place to live.

[@seankim9143]

He's no longer in the Army and as you can see other videos on his channel, he's a multi millionaire business owner based off in Texas.

[@MrHouseMusic619]

I love that enlisting is a source for a lot of people to find purpose. The narcissistic side of me says, don't ever say something is hard. I'm really out of shape and can meet every Navy PT qualifier.

[@godkonggr5916]

Lul the guy looks like a buff version of ninja.

[@on2wheels378]

I was in the army for 10 years and my favorite quote from a platoon leader was "in my experience sergeant." Hahahaha. Laughable from the first time I heard until I retired 11Z.

[@kevinzhang3313]

Lol typical 50 iq score E4 dumbass. Obviously some officers are well meaning, the Army has 1M+ soldiers, you honestly think every officer doesn't know better?

[@matteowoods4666]

Kevin Zhang the army doesn’t even have close to over a million soldiers

[@WhyBeUgly]

Man there's a lot of salty enlisted guys in the comments. Feeling inadequate?

[@gunsmoke3301]

WBU39 Haven’t spent a day in their lives outside of the military, too dumb and too scared to go to college and commission.

[@MrPokesmot32]

I appreciate your realness. You are a bro trying to push your other brothers to push themselves.Stay Hard. RLTW

[@joevoter6158]

Thanks for your service brother! I was about to join up at 18 but the chief of police said id have a full time job as soon as i finished the academy so I decided to do LE. If you ever leave the military you can be my beat partner any day!

[@celrolla7760]

am going to the marines after high school

[@tonka511]

How are you now?

[@skully8178]

No, that’s a mistake my dude

[@RealMrSoloDolo]

You in the marines yet?

[@celrolla7760]

The Baba Yaga not yet sir I pass the asvab that they provide for us at my highschool I got a 64 I’m working with a recruiter at the moment so I can go down to MEPS to swear In

[@markwilliams8303]

Ha, LT thinks he's in charge. Everyone knows that SFC is the one who really leads that platoon!

[@markwilliams8303]

@hotboii Lin , yeah I only spent 20 years in the Army as both an NCO and then an officer...

[@projekt679]

I’ve been on both the combat and support side and I can tell you that an Infantry PL is night and day compared to a support PL. An Infantry PL is given responsibility immediately! He is absolutely in charge because the Battalion Commander is closely observing and mentoring them.

[@SpratLabs]

@hotboii Lin www.reddit.com/r/gatekeeping

[@bluepeter6482]

Mark Williams not a fan of what this Lt is doing, and it’s run it’s course and needs to stop, but you’re 20 years as a signal officer are irrelevant. You have zero idea how any level of infantry unit operates. Any IN PL who lets his PSG run the platoon doesn’t last long. The PSG is vitally important, but the buck stops with the LT. He is the decision maker at the end of the day, and if he isn’t up to it, he will be working with you in the commo shop in a month or two and next guy up.

[@GTBANNA]

Lin stfu

[@zlionz]

thats some nice accommodation.

[@teller121]

Nothing like Ft. Puke, LA, 1986-88, let me tell ya. Of course, we were in the field so much during Reagan's last yrs, it wouldn't have mattered if we'd had a SoCal-quality Gold's there!!

[@sikedmike]

lol Muniz was answering like he was on thin ice, true NCO right there hahaha

[@riphaven]

I remember in AIT hiding in my wall locker to avoid PT because of a bad hangover. God bless that wall locker.
