2 months to go for bmq. I run 6k every other day and hit the gym every day. I've been
alternating 5 sets of pushups and 5 sets of chin ups ( ex. Monday: pushups Tuesday:
chin ups and so on) and I'm finally able to do a decent amount of chin ups. I was talking
to my boss who has experience in the reserves (about 4 years) He's told me that he
didn't do a single chin up in the military and that its all pull ups (for those who might
be confused on the difference. Pull ups are with your hands shoulder width or wider
apart, opposed to chinups which have your palms facing towards you and hands about 6 inches apart). SO my question is, in basic will we be doing pulls or chins? I realize pull ups would be more appropriate for climbing over walls or into windows, and if anyone has suggestions on how to improve my routine fire away.
