IOW, women can’t do pushups and we don’t want them to feel bad.

“It will reduce attrition... And there you have it, the rest is pointless gibberish. Bottom line: More people can pass if they dumb it down.

It will reduce attrition and it will reduce musculoskeletal injuries and actually save, in the long run, the Army a heck of a lot of money What BS.
It's only to enable women. They can't meet the standards - so lower the standards.

It always starts with, ‘the women will have to meet the standards’ and then the standards are changed.

I've never seen the situp as a test of any sort of physical readiness.
It's a damned back-breaker and neck-wrecker.
Cardio-pulmonary endurance is what needs to be measured and a damned situp doesn't do that.
I don't have a solution...although I always leaned toward endurance marches and hikes, a combination of walking and running.
I also always felt the old Run/Dodge/Jump in a timed mode and adjusted for different body types, would be part of a good test of physical readiness.
Bottom line, there are differences between men and men and there are differences between women and women...and there are damned sure differences between men and women.
Let's make it all about getting to the battlefield with a full battle-rattle and then being able to fight effectively once you get there.
I know damned well they can come up with something besides situps and pushups.
And for the mouthy wags out there, I maxed every APFT I took while on active duty, except for my last one prior to retirement...which is when a damned situp snapped two vertebrae in my back.
But I still passed the damned test.
