    Hi, this is a great question.

    Definitely keep working on your fitness, no matter what level you're at.
    You should have been given a list of things you need to take with you (boot polish, brush, sewing kit, toiletries etc.). To be honest, I remember not actually needing some of the things but it won't look good if you turn up without them.

    Apart from that, there's not much else you need to do, just turn up with the right attitude: be willing to learn and listen to your instructors, give it your best effort, and don't give up.

    Also remember that basic training isn't the Army, it's just the training you need to complete to get in.

    Best of luck.
