Marines delay female fitness plan after half fail pull-up test

[PartyHeart]

Are you male or female?

I am very much a female. And no, its not hard. Back in the day in physical ed I think 5 or 7 or something was the minimum.

The only ones that think like that have no lives to go back to or are brainwashed. Small town hicks. I ain't dying for nobody but my kids. But then again I had an admin job. fukk the infantry all together. They are all pawns on the battlefield unless you're part of an elite unit like recon or scout sniper what's the point. Anybody can be a grunt

Dude, you have no idea what you're talking about. This is coming from a PFR Clerk, BTW. They don't take idiots into 0300 School. That's a myth. They'd be a SERIOUS liability.​

nah, breh...anyone can be admin

Nah, b. My class started with 40 students. Ended up with 15. Payroll was skressfull.​

whats the male requirement for pullups?

As far as we were all concerned for the PFT, the requirement was 20 for max points. Anything lower was just being lazy and unmotivated.

Anyone unable to do 20 should be ashamed of themselves.​

Dayum girl good shyt.

pullups are hard if you dont have a set of good muscles. when i started with the gym 2 years ago i looked like mcfly and couldnt do a single one. need some biceps, lat and shoulder muscles first

I don't think 3 is asking too much, but I'm not shocked by this. Girls generally have more fat and less upper body strength than men. Most that I've seen struggle doing a push-up or two.

 

[Thegospel]

I don't give a damn how many pull ups they can or can't do. My question is can they shoot? At the end of the day I think that is the most important question. But three pullups is embarrassing. lol

half the coli males couldnt do 3 pull ups and id put a decent amount of money on that being true.

Isnt this the branch that nobody wants to join?

Even the Marines got some standards when it comes to joining?

Marines are the most prestigious branch in the military. You thinking of the Army breh

Well based on how desperate I hear they are to recruit I thought otherwise.

A couple of my friends have stores about how aggressive marine recruiters are compared to the other branches and even more have stories on how harsh it is to where people who joined wish they picked another branch.

What branch did you homies serve. Marines have the highest toughest requirements out of all branches of the military. How does having a strong recruitment method show they have low standards?
