i’m a junior in high school. only recently have i discovered USAFA and i started training my body in late november of last year. from the start of this month i’ve been working on my running since running has always been tough for me, and i can only run 1/2 mile at the moment. before january i worked on building up my endurance and muscle in my legs, and thankfully it’s been working well for me. pull ups and push ups are my weakest points, do you have any recommendations on how to build upper body strength more efficiently? thank you for this video, there was a lot of really helpful incite into the application process.

There’s actually a whole guide on the USAFA website , if you can’t find it. Dm me on Instagram. @therealpapi.abdul
@sophiacannelos47992 жыл бұрын
For push-ups, focus on good form so that you're not set off guard when the USAF expects perfect push-ups, and there isn't a cheat code on how to do more push-ups, just do push-ups everyday and work on your upper body at the gym

Low key, it’s a lot of work and I happened to have my dad helping me but ik not every dad is gonna help or is too busy.

I am taking Honors French III with Juniors in my class ( I am only freshman). I am also taking Honors Geometry, Honors Bio, Honors Concert Band w/ jazz, I am also taking AP Human Geography. I did XC in the fall on the JV team and gonna do Baseball in the Spring. Every summer I go to a summer camp in Maine called Leaders School. If I keep up with things like what I am doing, will I have a shot at getting in the USAFA? I am planning on taking all Honors classes for the next years of High School w/ AP French next year along with AP US History. I also plan on taking AP Physics and Calculus, along with Engineering and coding classes in my Junior and Senior years. So do you think I have a shot?
