Marine Corps Workout Routine



Ever wondered how the marines train? This marine corps workout routine is no joke and it can really push you to your limits. If you follow this weekly routine, you will definitely see the results and feel great after.

The split goes as follows:

Monday - Body Weight
Tuesday - Cardio
Wednesday - Body Weight
Thursday - Cardio
Friday - Body Weight
Saturday - Cardio
Sunday - Rest Day

For all body weight exercises you want to max out your reps, rest one minute after each exercise, and do a total of three sets. So for Monday it will look something like this:

Monday:

Pull-ups – Do as many reps as possible.
Take a break for one minute.
Ab Crunch  – Max out your reps. If you're able to do 100, then you're doing great.
Rest one minute
Push ups – Max out.
Rest one minute and then repeat the above exercises two more times to complete three sets. 





Wednesday:

Chin-Ups
Crunches
Wide Pushups






Friday:

V Bar Pullup 
Decline Crunches
Closed Pushups






For your cardio days on Tue, Thur, and Sat. Attempt to run 5 miles in the quickest time possible.
