During BMQ you'll be thrown in with people of literally ALLLL shapes and sizes to say the least.... And you can guess which one's will make it and which one's won't..
I'm 5'7 and 190lbs when I joined, that was Jan 6 2005, we didn't do much PT during our BMQ (reserve- lack of time) but I am now 180lbs, small loss! BUT, we did do MANY MANY pushups... I went in there being able to do like.. 23-24 tops, now I can do 45 perfect form drop of a hat! Goal is 50 for summer.
Being short (short legs) and stalky (Italian heritage), I can run fast, but only over short distances, I'm not a distance runner. That is where I suffered during PT and they let me know!!! Make sure, out of anything you can do, who cares if you can lift a Howitzer, just be able to run at least 2-4Km's going INTO BMQ newbies!
Goodluck
PS> Keep in mind "battle fitness test" throughout your own personal PT time at home... You'll know what I mean.
