Not sure about those specific conditions, but yes, to get in initially you have to be in okay shape. After you’re in, not so much.
I used to live in Norfolk, VA - it’s home to the largest naval station in the world. There’s a big difference between SEALs and enlisted men/women. I can assure you, I’ve met plenty of people in the navy that are in terrible shape.
You do realize the navy has fatasses who have random jobs such as being a mechanic for a ship, right? Enlisted guys are for the most part in very average shape.

There are fitness requirements for the entire time you are in any branch of the service at least for enlisted folks. There is a maximum weight to height for the Navy, if your weight exceeds the max for your height, they check your body far content though the limits are 22 or 23 % for males depending on over/under 40.
