So has anyone ever managed to set up a desktop in their BEQ? If so, how did you do it? I wanna splurge for a good setup, but I don't see where I would put it to play comfortably.

I ship on August 25th. I am trying to figure out whether to start cutting or keep bulking. I'm leaning more to keep bulking. I am 5'8 180lb right now at around 25-30% bf (yes I know I'm kinda fat). I can already pass the pft pretty casually right now. I have two main reasons to continue the bulk. I am a decently trained male, so I most likely won't be seeing much muscle gain from boot camp. So cutting before will just leave me weaker and I won't be able to strength train until after Bootcamp. My diet will be fairly controlled and the increased cardio will increase my metabolism which in turn will cause me to lose weight, so in my mind Bootcamp is essentially a free 10 week cut. This is a smaller and dumb reason, the more I weigh the harder calisthenics workouts will be which in turn means I get more muscle stimulus which in turn means more gains. So I won't atrophy into a shrimp by the end of Bootcamp ( I am aware that's not how muscle loss works. I am being dramatic.) My main question is what are the chances that I actually lose weight? I intake around 3k-4k calories a day and train 5 times a week at high intensity. Will the amount of food I can eat at Bootcamp and amount of cardio be able to put me at a calorie deficit or will I just get more fat? Also how easy will it be to hit my protein with the food there?

So I'm going in as a nuke, but I've heard from multiple unrelated sources that the other nukes are straight up weird. Is this true? And if so, what kind of weird are we talking? Like just autistic?

I was wondering how important it is to strive for excellence in boot camp. For my case I'm going NUC and hopefully looking to do STA 21 or NUPOC to become an officer. Like should I look to take leadership roles and strive to perform well on the OPFT? And if so what are some recommendations to really stand out?

So my contract is gonna expire at in shape and I don't wanna renew because I'm going to leave for the navy in August. So basically I'm asking if anyone has a buddy pass for a gym in Victorville I can use. I'm decently knowledgeable about lifting and exercise. We can lift together or not.
