CIS is a very physically demanding course! Students must be in excellent physical shape before arriving.

Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test- Failure to adhere to Marine Corps standards in any portion of the test will result in disenrollment from the course.

Body Composition Program - Be within height and weight standards when you arrive. You will be measured on check-in.

Running- Marines are highly encouraged to focus on running on terrain that includes hills. Boots and utility runs are very common at this course, so work on this area also.

Obstacle Course- Marines will be required to successfully complete the obstacle course.

Hikes- Marines will conduct a 5, 10, 15, and 20 Kilometer hike. These hikes will be conducted with all issued gear to include flak jacket with SAPI's and weapons. The pack will weigh about 65 lbs.
