"We don’t want to punish sailors because gyms were closed during the pandemic," Rear Adm. James Waters III explained.

Hahahahahahahahaha. Holy shit what an explanation.

Ok, but..if you picture sailors on a submarine or aircraft carrier where they're hotbunking or whatever, it makes a lot more sense.

You can't really just go for a walk outside or so sime pushups in your living room.

You still do a lot of heavy lifting, walking and hard labour. Its a military ship not a luxury cruise. The lie the rear admiral just spouted is very naked.

I understand that part, in a former life, I was an attached contractor. I was talking about wearing makeup while doing exercises... pretty sure sweat proof eyeliner isn't a thing.

Also its for a photo op, and there was no way she was going to get her picture taken without her face on.

They took the "Stacey Abrams tank" memes a bit too serious.

I was in the USMC (in the 90s). You don't need a gym to get a perfect score on any of their fitness tests, because everything tested is based on simple shit like pullups, crunches, running, pushups, etc. All stuff you can do without a gym or any equipment. Army and other branch stuff is even more of a joke.

The main issue is getting fat and lazy, which is the only reason people fail, since you don't even need to exercise at all to get passing scores as long as you're not a fat slob.

Also I know from other people that if you're in the Army and get fat, they give you a million chances to fix your shit before they fire you. If you're in a semi-important job, they'll move mountains to avoid firing you even if you're a fatass, and delay it a lot and try super hard to help you and make it easier on you. I knew a dude who was in this position and they gave him tons of chances and pressured him and helped him just to be able to baaaarely make the absolute minimum so they didn't have to fire him.

Basically what the Navy is saying here, is even people who fucked up over a long period of time and were already being processed out, are going to be given even more chances and have their firing delayed even more. I doubt it will make much difference between "okay you get one more chance" doesn't work when they already had lots of prior chances.

100% I bet you this is because of women, because women are the most prone to getting fat, and the woke military is desperate to hold onto women and push more women into the force even though they're markedly inferior to men. I fucking weep for how fucked we are in the next war if we have to go to war with a force of 20-30%+ USELESS women who can't fucking fight and can't handle high stress situations, hobbling the force because faggot politicians in uniform cared more about making Democrats happy than about actually doing their jobs to maximize military readiness.

Being locked up on post and relegated to the barracks does hurt your cardio.

Not when literally confined to barracks during covid. There's no room in rooms for that.

Desperation to increase those retention numbers is piling in. This will not end well.

So the branch notorious for harboring fat slobs and allowing binge eating on carriers is making it official policy now.

I can imagine the USS Joe Biden pulling into port in 50 years. Laden with her cargo of blubberous Americans. Hooking up at the dock for Brawndo. Restocking the onboard McDonalds.

It's a good thing all the fighting is done by robots now. Because these guys ain't about it. As long as the ship doesn't run out of 'beetus supplies, and sailors don't succumb to RSIs, she's untouchable.

We have designed memetic weapons to destroy them, while leaving the ship's infrastructure intact for salvaging. It's basically a large audio resonator system that projects taunts. Stuff like "You'll never be a woman. There are only two genders." etc. During testing on prisoners on the fediverse, we've found that more than 15 seconds of its use is enough to reduce them into helpless crying and in some cases even cause them to attempt self-harm.

Will the USS Joe Biden be a Type 003 aircraft carrier built in Shanghai?

I'm not sure what Type 001 looks like but probably.

They replaced the shipyard at Newport News with a George Floyd memorial.

It’s funny how for a hundred years or more the various branches constantly made fun of the others for being pussies either for real policies or urban legend / made-up shit like the legend that Air Force cadets get some kind of card they can hold up if the drill instructor is being too mean to them.

Now the branches are engaged in a battle to out-pussy each other. Soon the legend is going to be that the Air Force is the worst branch because they DON’T have those cards (even though they probably will!)

Everyone is anti-situp now. They say to do crunches instead, which in my experience don't do anything at all. I don't want to fuck up my back either though. I've been doing hollow holds as a happy medium. Can't really tell if they're working or not. I think so.

Knee raises, leg raises, L sits.

Planks and hollow holds also work well if you’re doing them right. You’ll know if you are.

To be fair, I agree with him on OnlyFans, YouTube "influencers", Twitch streamers, etc.-But both male and female.

I get that capitalism rewards shit that sells, but these people contribute nothing to society and reinforce the myth that everyone can be rich if you just find the right trick to beat the system.

Every time I hear about one of these people, I think of the poor lady cleaning my hotel room for minimum wage that will probably slave away there her whole life, while this asshole gets rich making videos of himself opening toys or that thot shakes her tits and simps buy her a car.

I guess the real societal cancer is the fools that fund them, but it sure would be entertaining to see them fed into some military meat grinder and blown into a million pieces.

fitness, it is a force management tool

And this is true for all the services. I doubt it's a coincidence that this announcement was made a week or two after they released that they all failed to meet their recruiting numbers for last year. Fitness standards go up when the military is full and has high retention and go down when they're desperate to fill slots.

What was always hilarious to me was it failing a fit test would prevent positive personnel actions like a PCS or promotion, but not a deployment. If they were truly concerned about fitness as a readiness issue like they say they are, all those fatties would be non-deployable.
