You'll be doing regular PFTs as well, at least in boot. Standard PFT is pullups, crunches, 3mi run, in that order. A perfect 300 is 20/100/18:00

i do have a question also.... what happens if u run the three miles in like 20 min... what would be your score then?

As far as pullups go, check out the Armstrong program. Intensive, but it took me to 20 faster than anything else would have. Crunches, well, if the guy is holding your feet right you should be able to max those already. Your recruiter can show you proper form. As far as running goes there are a lot of different approaches, check out Hal Higdon's 5k program, or one of many others. www.coolrunning.com has a ton of good info. This is rapidly turning into an off topic thread so PM me if you need anything. Best of luck to you.
