My god.. We are sooo soooo fucked. Record low recruitment, the ones that do join don't want to be there and are overweight.

Archive: https://archive.today/U4g8Y

From the post: "More than two-thirds of active duty service members are within the overweight or obese ranges of the body mass index, according to a report by the American Security Project released Thursday.

Defense Department data shows that the obesity rate, calculated using a person’s age, height and weight, has more than doubled over the past decade, from 10% to roughly 21%. At the same time, more than half of young Americans now qualify as obese, and it’s the no. 1 disqualifier for recruiting prospects."

To be fair. BMI works fairly well for fat fucks that are not athletic. To people that work out.. Not so much.

It is far enough apart that for the majority BMI is useful.
