As said above, meals in basic are stressful. That being said, they monitor each basics weight weekly and will put them on protein/calorie supplements if they lose any significant amount of weight. Also, most meals served in basic are high calories because the dining hall staff knows the basics...

They give you a choice, you don’t need cleats for any of them tho. Only a few people that went really hard at intramurals soccer had them.
