Not sure if the Marines call it Boot Camp or BT but what kind of shape do you need to be in to get through it alright?
Ive heard thats what the Marines are great at, taking out of shape people and over the weeks making them some of the best soldeirs on earth. But to get to the point; Im in DECENT shape; Im not a big guy or a real strong guy but Im not really terrible either. Im about 5'7, 160 lbs, I can run ONE mile in 6-7 minutes (but any more than a mile then Im SOL), Im not really weak but according to the recruiter you just need to be able to do pushups and sit ups, it was like like 50 in a minute and a half or two minutes or something, and I can do both in under a minute but yeah.
How hard will BT be for someone going in, in fairly decent shape? And what are some things I need to get up or some things I need to get ready for?
Thanks
