Raciss!
BTTT ....
As a female and a Veteran, I can attest to how absolutely hard it is for some of us to keep to the standards.
And I’m talking about when I was a young woman, ran miles and miles every day, etc.
I’m curvy and every ounce of fat was gone, replaced my muscle. There were times when I STILL was borderline. Had to weigh 128 lbs., maximum on a small frame with wide hips and chesty.
Not fun. I did it - but it wasn’t fun!
Tape test?! She ain’t got time fo’ dat!
I know her.
Not impressed at all.
izzit warm in here or is it just me
I have a daughter that runs-—she’s very slim and fit.
I was astonished when she told me her weight. All muscle.

Glenda Lock: Ya knows dat dee only reason I took dis job was because I thought dat dis place was McDonald’s Health Center, likes ya knows dat McDonald’s!
It seems the Navy is addressing that. Did you see the link in my post #1?
“Hey, do you think these BDU’s make me look fat?”
I understand.
As a former university competitive gymnast, I had very difficult times meeting height/weight standards.
Muscle weighs more than fat and I had huge shoulders and arms, legs only slightly more developed (not much into floor ex so legs were pretty much extra weight).
So, fat guys with no muscle . . . no problem meeting height/weight standards, me not so much.
Baby got some fries to go wif dat shake...
She needs to say no to pancakes, waffles and the ever present syrup and butter.
“I’m curvy... on a small frame with wide hips and chesty”.
