What is the fastest way to decrease my two-mile run time from 20 minutes to 17-16 minutes?

I'm 5'11, 250lbs, and currently entering the army.

Hey no problem man just doing my part.

>250lbs
lose weight. you're going to go faster and sustain better when you arent carrying all that bulk
>but its all muscle
sure it is
>>
>>76865867
>What is the fastest way
cheat
epomax
methmax
put little wheels on your shoes and skate part of the way
when you go down hills, go at a half-trot rather than a run, you can go way faster with less effort, but you'll need about 10 meters clearance to break out of it

If he's running a decent 2 mile time he probably has ok body composition

Thanks in advanced for your service and for protecting my freedom.
>>
>>76865867
Have you tried running faster?
>>
>>76865867
Lose body fat and try to accumulate volume at an intensity you can easily recover from in order to drive adaptations in your cardiovascular system. Once a week or so, hit some more intense work, like 400m repeats on the track, aiming for split times that are 10-15% faster than your goal 2-mile pace. Look up the Jack Daniels Running Formula and check out his work, or The Science of Running by Steve Magness, for deeper info.
How long before you ship?

No problem civ, just following doing my service. But thanks, it means a lot coming from an average joe.

It's going to be funny when you die for Israel in a zionist war.
>>
>>76866664
Civilian, I’m not “dying” anywhere. I’m stacking money. BAH, BAS, zero rent, zero utilities, full medical, tax breaks, bonuses, tuition paid, and more time off than any corporate drone. I’ll be sitting on a six-figure net worth before you finish your next angry post.

While you’re refreshing the thread, I’ll be lifting in a private base gym and walking into the commissary paying 30 percent less than civilians. Keep trying to predict my future. I’m too busy getting rich on the government’s dime.

You are so fucked bro

“Meat shield” is cute, lil bro. You sound like someone whose entire knowledge of the military comes from YouTube thumbnails. The guys running modern systems aren’t cannon fodder, they’re technicians with better pay, better benefits, and better job security than anyone doomposting on a Mongolian basket weaving forum.

You think you’re warning me. All you’re really doing is advertising that you have no idea how the world actually works.

>>76865867
Have you tried running faster, that should reduce your time.

Cool train

Lifting weights explosively and plyometrics.
Increasing your rate of force development increases stride length which is the main factor in running speed.
If you can already run 2 miles, your cardio is already there, you only need the power output.

>>76866836
NTA but that was weaak
>>
basically use visualization techniques and pretend you are behing hunted by these creatures while you run and you will run faster.

>>76865867
run for a half hour every day you feel fine and track your distance and try to beat your last week's distance by a % or two every succeeding training week
>>
>>76865867
As others have said, lose weight. You'll inevitably lose a fuck ton of weight in basic training regardless.
>>76866385
He's running at a ten minute-per-mile pace at a BMI of 35. He's obese, but certainly not plain "fat guy" obese.
>>
If you have already signed up for the US Army, you have bigger problems to worry about than 2 mile time.
There is no way the other sheboons in the Army can run the mile either and they have no morals or standards anymore.
Sorry fren, you are fucked.

>>76867408
