I was in the marines. Boot camp is physically demanding as it is. Some men came in out of shape and over weight. It sucked for them because they basically stop your training and put you in a special platoon to lose weight and get in better shape. You end up staying longer and the marine corp basic training is already 3 months.

There were female recruits that were in boot camp for a year because they kept getting hurt, and got recycled. Making females do pull-ups won't work because a lot of them as well as the guys don't come to boot camp prepared. I could only do 7 when I arrived. I was 182lbs. By the time I graduated I was 165 and could do 20 with ease.

Those forced 12 mile marches are brutal as well. The average female ain't doing none of that. As far as infrantry and being out in the field with a chick to each his own. When the bullets start flying I'm gonna be out for self. fukk trying to earn a medal.

what the fukk? :dahell:..can't do 3 pullups? really :dahell:..shyt then they shouldn't be marines...that is not an unreasonable physical requirement...if you can't pullup your own weight you've failed at life

I'm not sure I can do 3 pullups...and I'm a dude...and only weight 145... :sadcam:
