Hello everyone.
In order to do well in basic and in the infantry (officer), does one need to be rid of almost all his/her excess fat? I am 5'8" and 212 pounds. I want and can lose another 30-40 but was wondering if I keep running and doing my strength training (can do 30 pushups and 50+ situps), can I just sit back and let the fat come off slowly or should I really being pushing hard to get that excess fat off in time for basic next september.
Does anyone know of anyone who was a bit chubby who did well or do all chubbies fall behind.
(Now where did I put that donut... ;D)
Thanks!
