Hi, you have to be in basic training before your 36th birthday. You're obviously a fit individual but perhaps the Army Reserves would be worth looking in to as their age limit is higher than the Regulars. If you google local Army Reserve units in your area you could make contact with them, go and visit and see if it's something you'd be interested in. Good luck.
