Probably as much as he felt he needed. There is no organized PT during the academic year for cadets. They take a semi-annual APFT that becomes part of their academic grade for Phys Ed, along with an indoor obstacle course (

A cadet can choose to blow off doing PT, but as the saying goes you can't cram the night before for a PT test, so their grade would suffer, which has lasting effects in terms of branch and post assignment post commissioning.
As far as punishment, if the Chain of Command felt that was necessary, he'd walk the Area for a number of hours on the weekend(
