I honestly believe there should not be any 'work-up' training for a BFT. If you can't go out and do 13km with 40 lbs on your back in less than 2 hrs 26 mins, then you have failed yourself only. In my opinion, it should be longer, with more weight. It should be an absolute challenge everytime you do it.
Regardless if your unit doesn't do PT enough, it's up to YOU and YOU only to stay fit. Seek and Accept responsibility...
It's sad when PT gets put on the back burner and more 'Important' things like maintenance, paper work or whatever take priority, but it happens all the time and it still doesn't add up to a valid excuse.
Now I'm not trying to say that i'm the fittest guy around, but if you are out of commission for 3 days after a BFT or have to 'work-up' for 3 weeks prior to a BFT, well maybe other gainful employment should be considered. :'(
