That's kinda odd. I'm military, and I'm 5'9". I'm only able to weigh 170
lbs. and still be within regs. To be 250 lbs, you'd have to be QUITE a bit taller than I am. After the 170 lb limit, youre given a tape test to check about what percent of your body is fat. People who lift alot of weights get this test often. I've seen several people given either special physical training, or sent home (depending if this is at training or if it's in a unit's PT test) for failing the tape test, even if they did well on the physical tests. Where did you hear this sort of thing?? Or, are you just angry and projecting? > > Oh, and stupid here though the average US soldier is now a plump 250 lbs > 5'6" recruit .....that is why wide was better. > > |
