Hit the gym when you can, and try not to over eat.

I had an NCO, SGT Sanchez, who I liked to 'dick around with'.
I would say something like 'you almost made PT worth it this morning' and he would smoke me. When he would just tell me to do 50 push-ups, or something along those lines, I would say something like, "is that it? I'm glad to see you can finally count past 49."
He once made me do 1,400 pushups. I did 10 every 5 minutes for 12 hours.
This was all in good fun. I don't recommend it if you don't have an NCO with a sense of humor.

EDIT** I hate(love) to call him out if he's on here. His name is Eric Sanchez. Sgt Eric 'Dirty' Sanchez.
