Ready for Marine Boot Camp?

It is no easy task but if you're serious about becoming Marine Corps boot camp ready, then you've come to the right place. This site is dedicated to helping future Marines get prepared for boot camp.

My name is Dan Collins and I am a former Marine Sergeant and I know what it takes to be a Marine. I am also a certified fitness trainer and have helped thousands to prepare for Marine Boot Camp, both physically and mentally. This site is full of valuable information such as training programs, nutritional information, what to expect at boot camp and more.

Don't make the mistake of going to boot camp unprepared. Many people arrive overweight and out of shape expecting to do the minimums to get by. This doesn't work! You'll get weeded out fast. You should be able to achieve a first class PFT score before you ever stand on those yellow footprints.

If you follow my advice, you will be able to achieve such fitness levels before you ever leave for boot camp. But don't expect it to be easy. Being the best never is. If you're going to be a successful Marine, you're going to have to work hard for it. I started preparing a year before going to boot camp and it paid off. I know what it takes to be prepared. I look forward to helping anyone who wants to help themselves. Let me be your personal guide in your preparation to becoming one of the few and the proud.
