Yeah, but even though we do it every day, we still have fatties and failures.

Anyone know where to find the photo of the fat guy holding pizzas wearing the Army Combat Shirt?

Even though he was guard or reserves....still way too damn fat.

We actually had 3 fatties get promoted to PFC today.

And then there are the Israeli's...who hands down win:



And to be fair, some of the hottest chick's I have seen in the military were Army officers. I think the USAF has the hottest enlisted force though. Marine Corps chicks are scary...

People in our squadron scored consistent 91-95 on old PT test. They fail this one now due to the pickiness of the Push-up Sit-Up requirements. They are Ravens too so that doesn't go well.

every branch has weak *******, i've seen plenty of Soldiers and Marines who couldn't keep up with my soft AF ***.

hell, Soldiers don't even have to pass PT standards to graduate basic training.

I think the new standards were in fact put in place to make it harder for all the skinny guys that would whizz by with 22 push-ups, 60 sit-ups, and a 13:00 minute mile and a half. I would seriously get 8 points for 19 push ups, 9 points for something like 50 push-ups, and max at like 62 push-ups on the old system.

Unfortunately for me I fall into that "Skinny Bitch" category. I was always good at sit-ups and my mile and a half was always around 11:30 +/- 30 seconds but my push-ups have ALWAYS been weak dick, I cannot do push-ups to save my life. But to be fair I haven't really had to worry much about PT since basic training and tech school, so this is a new stresser on me. I'll just do the adult thing and hit the gym up and focus alot more on upper body strength...

I think the standards were a joke and still are. While it would be a shame to loose the knowledge of some of the people around that cant stay in shape there is a system in place to train new people that can pass a PT test.

Our squadron doesnt get any (thats right ZERO) squadron PT time. We have to comply with it on our own time all the time. I guess its just part of being grown up. Finding time after work to stay in shape because your job requires it.

Its in the best interest of the military and the individual so why not just do it and not complain. I am personally looking forward to all the soft fat asses getting kicked out because they make the rest of us look bad.

I do 47 pushups, 42 situps, and a 13:03 run. And score a 75.1, just cuz i'm 6'2" and 230 lbs. but if I weighed 189. I would only need to do half the pushups and sittups, and run a 14:30 to pass. Thats why its stupid. They want everyone to be twiggs.

AMEN BROTHA!!! like ive said in this thread, we have to meet minimum standards and still fail? sucks the AF does not care about those that have been in 12-17 years who have had injuries and surgeries and teach the job better than anybody but have to kick them out because they cant pass the PT test..

what also is a dumb *** idea is anybody that scores a 90 has to do the PT test once? isnt that what we are doing? everybody will be doing the same ****, pass their PT test then get fat for 10 months, then get ready 2 months ahead for the pt test.

exactly!! the AF wants some skinny *** people. i will never ever have a 32 inch waist ever. so why even have that dumb *** policy.

im 6'1 and weigh the same as you. i just timed my run and ran an 11:54 here in a high altitude. i got my waist down to a 37. but the new PT test doesnt account for higher altitudes..

sparky1397r

apparently they also didn't account for fatass crybabies.

Glad to be a civilian again...

32'' waist isn't the max AC for 20 points.

i'm talking to the people who claim they can't pass because of the testing requirements, although i was playing off of your statement on what the testing didn't account for.

not very many guys "walking" around where i work our shop's average run time(snco and o included) is 10:07.

no reason to hate on stocky guys that can PT

Trying to enlist in the army. They taped tested me and informed that I had to lose 10% of my body fat. Now i'm 6'4 330lbs, played football for 8 years in highschool, wrestled for 4 your years, and thrown shotput and discus for 3. Needless to say i'm an athletic person, I can agree with them wanting me to lose the fat but saying a just because i'm 330 makes me unable to keep up with the skinny bitches is just plain stupid! Already cutting pretty hard trying to get to boot by dec.
