"And then what we do is try to work out a program through nutrition and exercise." The standards vary by service. The Army allows 26 percent body fat for men, and more for women. When recruits are asked their weight, "everybody lies," La Pointe said. Is that why you're posting to usenet and not in uniform? No...but is likely why you are here. Very likely. TMT
