Hi
My brother is in the army. He got through his fitness test easy and he went through the 80 days of training fine, he said the fitness test was easy and the training is a little hard as you dont get that much sleep.

Before he went to the army he wasnt unfit but he wasnt fit. He had never done any type of exercise at all e.g run, walking, gym. He just has a strong head and can push through things if needed, if you know what I mean. He is now very fit. Part of the 80 days training is to get you up to the army fitness level.

Also he said there were a lot of guys that were very unfit, and overweight to start with and they made it through the testing and training.

Edited to say if you want to know anything else please pm me Im happy to find out anything you need to know of my bro.
