Your goal should be exceed the standard for the SERE PAST Test and then maintain that level throughout your time in the Delayed Entry Program. While you’re in Basic Military Training you will most likely lose some of your physical ability, due to the lack of opportunity to train. Plan for that and ensure you can still exceed the standards of the PAST Test at all times. If you are having a hard time meeting one or more of the standards tailor your workouts to include more of that exercise. For instance, if you are weak in push-ups, do more push-ups not military press or bench press just push-ups.
