What I have never understood, is why not have an extended boot camp regime for those that are overweight or less fit but still really have the urge to enlist. I have heard that they have pre-training things that one can do to prep them for boot camp, but some may need the boot camp life of someone waking them up at dawn and forcing them to work out.
I say start those who are less fit with exercises that are less intense but that will eventually work them up to the point where fully "fit" recruits are when they begin normal boot camp. Then make them do the 20 mile uphill grinding runs, the endless sit ups and push-ups.
