Personal USMC Challenge

[BillVick]

I am a Marine who volunteered and was accepted into Force Recon. The testing for entry was tough and out of 103 who tried out 4 made it, including me.

I want to requalify and attain the same standards I did during that time so long ago and am almost on track but need some inspiration and advice.

It's a simple test to many here, I know, and included:

20 Pullups in boots
50 Pushups in one minute
70 Situps in two minues
3 mile run in 18:00 minutes.
1/2 mile swim in fatigues.

There were a few other goodies but time has dimmed them from memory. Now I took that test 54 years ago and next year for my 75th Birthday I want to requalify. I'm pretty much on track and using the following workout but really need some suggestions or ideas on what to include or not include.

I'm currently 74, 5' 9" 154 lbs 12% - 10% BF

Twice a week:
All exercises 8-10 reps / 3 sets
Squats 70%-90% body weight
DB push/Press - 40 lbs
Pullups/Chin ups 3 sets 10/10
Pushups 3 sets 35
Curls - BB 70 lbs
Tri Extension - 95 lbs
Incline Situp weight 35
Tim Ferris Bosu situp 20
Incline Curl 15

Twice a week:
30 minutes of Tabata Race Walk /Sprint followed by
1 mile swim


Thanks for any input or suggestions. I appreciate it and this forum and web site.
