Definitel...I would totally reccommend this program! Definitely have a back up plan while you wait though because you could literally be notified last minute that you got in. (I got the call an entire week AFTER training started) As for being shy, that's no worry at all! I'm also one to take time to warm up to people but everyone is usually pretty crazy and nice and weird and it's very easy to become yourself, it's pretty awesome! Basically what they say is our PT is like military PT but cut in half, which during CTI (Corps Training Institute) month(which is the first month) you will be doing PT with your whole unit sometimes that involves running and sometimes it just routines such as crunches, push-ups among other things, each PT is 45 minutes and you do it 3 times a week (5 times if you become firefighter) As you go into spike you'll be doing team workouts which vary depending on what team you're in, it's definitely not about how much you you do, as long as you always put your best effort into, you'll be good. Patience will definitly be key in this program as well, as there are many personalities that can potentially clash! There's a lot more I can tell you about if you have more questions!

I'm 21 years old (going on 22 this summer)and wanted to join something along this line while I still can. Is there any pointers that you have for someone like me who wants to join? And I was also wondering about the PT...What kinds of things do they have you do during it? I have asthma so I basically suck at running. Also I have a tendency to be somewhat shy do you think that this would be a major disadvantage? I would greatly appreciate if you responded :].
