What Happens if you fail physical fitness test?

What happens if you fail the physical fitness test when trying out for the Canadian Forces Primary Reserve. Some people told me nothing happens and you just work on it during the your time in the reserve but im not sure about this.

I don't know about Canada, but in the US Army, they send you to a Holding unit where you do nothing but work on your PT until you can pass it. At which point they'll send you off to basic.

My advice? Go run...NOW! Turn off the computer, Get your running shoes on, and run. When you've run two to three miles, Push ups and sit ups. Pyramids are one of the best ways I always helped my soldiers pass the test. You start with 10 push ups, then 10 sit ups, Then 9 push ups and 9 sit ups, and so on, until you're down to 1, and then you work your way back up to 10 each.

It's just better for you if you walk in there with absolutely no doubt in your mind that you can do it. If you have to put it off for a month to train yourself up, it's better than spending time at the Fitness holding unit.

After looking at the Canadian Army site:

I see that it's part of the recruitment process. If you take the test, and you know you're not ready, you're setting yourself up for failure. On a PT test you will only perform as well as you've trained.

So Get out there! or let me throw on my Drill Sergeant voice.

GET ON OUT THERE AND MOVE! MOVE! MOVE! YOU'VE GOT TEN SECONDS TO GET OUT THAT DOOR AND THREE OF THEM ARE GONE!
