weight training is used during a cut primarily to retain muscle
but with that much cardio going on...
it will be hard to avoid overtraining
id say 2 full body days a week
30min or less
3 sets of legs
3 sets of push
3 sets of pull
heavy would be my recomendation
6reps maybe 8
be sure to stay well hydrated
and as previously stated
diet
you probably want to stay NEAR maint.21
5'11"
~175lbs
8% on elec. analyzer

Basically, when you hurt the next day :P
Good way to accomplish this is lowered volume. I guess you'll be doing enough volume during bootcamp stuff, anyways.http://www.getlifting.info
