No because there is no requirement unless your previous test expires.

Fry said:you'lll need to actually RUN the 2.4 km 11 or 12 mins, not sure on the actual time. As for pushups and situps, if you suck at them, you'll need to get better at them, especially for the fitness test. You have to do everything, one right after another, and that makes it a lot more harder than just practising pushups. Goodluck with it all.

FITSUMO said:I have muscle warmers to...hehe. Ā Ā Over the last 2 years I have lost 72 pounds, and I did that by this really complex formula
drink lots of water + training at least 30 mins a day(at the start, much more now) + portion control = 72lbs loss.
from just running 2 k I progressed to doing a duathlon, olympic distance tri, 1/2 marathon, 24 hr mtb relay in one summer. Ā then I started training for a 1/2 ironman, but the army thing right now is more important, so i am working on speed instead of being a diseal.
>>Infanteer101<< said:As for the smokers...whatever you have been made to believe about smokers having difficulty in doing the step test or "keeping up" on Basic, SWALLOW IT! I will let you know that 90% of all folks who topped Basic out at the "Jean" were smokers when I was there and infact were always presented themselves, fully dressed (thankfully) and 10 mins prior to all timings. After-all everyone needs their morning fix ;D Furthermore, when I was on IAP and BOTC, the standards of the smokers continued to not surprise me.
Patrick H. said:Ironically, I just started again... I had no difficulty doing the step test while smoking, if you keep up with your cardio then you shouldn't have a problem either...
