Hey guys... Well I'm leaving for Basic training and Advanced Individual Training(AIT) July 15th, for the US Army. My Army Job(MOS) Is intel analyst, irrelevant to my blog.

I made this post to discuss the topic of nerves. I find that when i workout on my own I'm so much more efficient and powerful (though i'm realy not... i'm 5'7, 135 LBs lol), however, when i do PT Tests with my unit(Physical fitness workouts), i just get a really frayed feeling, like i start becoming naucious and i can't perform nearly as well.

I guess my question is.. How do I, if at all, calm these nerves down to where i can perform at a higher level... because i wont be able to use this excuse is basic training when im running 10 miles.

do it as much as you can and you will de-sensitize yourself

only way to "calm nerves" or get over fears, ie face the nervous situation repeatedly and soon you wont get nervous anymore. really its that simple

Agreed. If you do it enough times, you start getting so used to it and it becomes natural.

actually we have a smokey the bear at our PT sessions usually, and he usually smokes us pretty good, and i think it helps me because i use the screaming for motivation and i kind of like it lol but i hope im just a little nervous about leaving home for an extended period of time the first time
