I'm sure the better the shape you're in when you go the better off you'll be.
By the way, the 10 counts just add an extra push up, right? How many of them do they have you do?

I understand exactly what you mean. I tore my ACL when I was 15 and it still hurts sometimes. Nothing to serious, but it doesn't bend all the way, so that kinda sucks! I was worried about it when I went to bootcamp, but when you get there you'll see its not a big deal at all. You'll be just fine
PT in bootcamp... if you can work yourself up to a 20 minute sustained run, you'll be okay!
10 counts (start standing up):
1. Get down on your hands.
2. Jump back into the push up position.
3. Jump to the left.
4. Center (pushup position)
5. Jump to the right.
6. Center
7 & 8. Push up. Down is 7. Up is 8.
9. Jump back in.
10. Stand up.
We usually did like 20 of these. If you've done Insanity, think Ski Abs mixed with a regular Burpee.
