It varies depending on the school... but usually consists of lots of formation runs... 3-5mi at an 8min-10min/mile pace. If you fall out on the runs, or struggle during the exercises, you might PT every day during the week. Some schools are tougher than that... some are easier... it's hard to get details without talking to someone specific to your rating.

My finger is pretty jacked from doing pt on a mouse for ten hours a day every day.

Thanks agian for the replies.

It's nice to know there are not going to be 8-count bodybuilders and burpees and things like that. It's still a tough decision since boot camp will still not be easy.

They save the fun stuff for when they beat you.

you will do plenty of ten counts, flutter kicks, and 4 count jacks while getting screamed at and cursed out. Your division will be loud all the time. You will get beat for the actions and stupidity of others. It will make you strong.

What are 10 counts? I googled em, but only found more info on 8 count BBs.

Why do they call them 4 count jumping jacks?

What else do they do for IT when you get beat?

What are 10 counts? I googled em, but only found more info on 8 count BBs. 8 counts with an extra push up

Why do they call them 4 count jumping jacks? it's just the way they're counted. 2 complete jumping jacks is "one"

What else do they do for IT when you get beat? lunges, push ups, flutter kicks, air squats, run in place
