Experience
I have been a personal trainer,aerobics instructor,nutrition advisor and boot camp instructor for several years,in South Florida.
I generally prefer to train people outdoors in a park setting.The workout outside is just as tough as a gym workout.I can give people a excellent workout using just their bodyweight.I do a bootcamp style class with groups of 5-10 people.

Question
Dear Bonnie:
I have recently enlisted in the army and I am shipping out on the 4th of Feb, 2010. There is an Armed forces physical test where in you run 2 miles and then do push ups and sit ups for 300 points. I am aiming at 2 miles in 13 minutes, 80 push ups and 80 sit ups (no rest in between). I am running on 4 evenings in the week and would like to spend the rest of my time for push ups and sit ups. Some research on the web suggested increasing the push ups and sit ups steadily week by week. Would you suggest strength training for any of these goals? I would greatly appreciate any advice on the same.
Best regards
Keith
Answer
Hi Keith,
My suggestion is for you to keep increasing the push ups/sit ups each week until you get to your goal-then go over the goal-at least 90-100 continuous push ups/sit ups.
Strength training can include more upper body exercises;curls,pressdowns,rows,etc.
Thank you for enlisting in the Army and serving our country.
Bonnie
