I’m currently interested in the air force but I’m 14, short, and super super skinny, so 1. is joining the air force worth it, and 2. what should i do to prepare for it at my age and size?
I don't think being short/skinny really matters, but there might be weight requirements. The AF Aim High app has training plans to prepare, but the basics are sit-ups, push-ups & 1.5 mile. The app has a lot of other resources too. (I'm Not AF but an afjrotc cadet)
I was definitely in your position. I was really skinny and I could hardly do a push-up actually I couldn’t do one at all, but that is what basic training is for they literally push you to limits you didn’t know you could go, but it’s definitely best to start ahead of time before you go there so you kinda have something to work with when you’re in basic training so like the person said as long as you’re doing push-ups and situps and running just to kind of prep you for what you’re gonna already be doing
Paid housing is usually after you rank up to SRA until then you’d be in a dorm that’s paid for, paid food depends on your job and it’s hours of work but essentially yes you’d either have a meal card or they’ll give you money for food with your regular pay directly to your account.
