I'm retired military.
They started TSP after I had about 10 years in service.
I maxed it every year because their index funds and life cycle funds are the lowest cost products I've ever seen.

C just followed the S&P
S mimics the Dow
I for foreign stocks
F bond funds
Not sure how far from retirement you are. So that makes a difference. There are also target retirement date funds if you don't want to adjust on your own every so often.
Otherwise just balance most in C S and F. Maybe your age as the percentage that goes into F

I'm 30. The wife and I would like to buy our first house soon so making some extra money in the savings plan would be ideal.

I'm at:
43% C
38% S
15% I
2% F
2% G
Edit: If I didn't have so much allocated to large-cap funds outside of my TSP, I'd probably be around 65% C and 15% S
