I did it once when I was 19. But know I'm 31 and smoke a pack a day and struggle for what I consider a semi-respectable 23:00 - 23:00. But I can do the 20 pullups and 100 crunches for a score of 265-270ish.
If I put the cigs down I bet I could get close to 20 though.

I did 11 minutes on the army two miler and vomited for 10 mins.

I preferred my navy 1.5. Although I've done the marine pft a few times.

I would too. But I don't think I could ever get 2 miles in 11 min.

To address the op, it's not surprising. Many of the female marines I saw didn't carry their own gear too much. They would flirt and get guys to do it.

Only once I had that time. I usually did around 14 mins. I was a fat, drunk bastard.

That's no way to go through life son.
But it's a great way to go through the military

Especially in the E4 mafia. No darker day than the day you pin E5.

We call it the Lance Cooley underground. The underground always has the best rumors.

It's way harder for females to do Marine Corp pullups(no kipping, all the way down no bent elbows, chin above the bar).

new to this thread, but can someone explain how pull ups relate to bowling in the OP?

OCS is hard enough as it is. If you aren't in shape, you won't make it.
It's hard for the civilians that go but the prior enlisted Marines that go fricking rock it.
I haven't worked with that many female marines but the majority that I've come across suck in every way imaginable.

I was just taking up for Obama when she was putting him down.I'm like you guys I didn't know what she was talking about.I was trying to sleep...

To clarify these are dead hang with no kipping. Besides, who gives a shite how many pullups a wook(female marine) or some POG for that matter can do. They will never sniff the front lines let alone see combat.
It doesnt take a strong upper body to make sure the trigger pullers are getting paid,fed from behind the comfort of a desk . Most grunts I know can do at least 20 strict dead hangs if not many more. I stay around 25 but I weigh 210 so im okay with that.

Lol, I know the difference. If you can't do 3 pullups, you shouldn't be in the Marines. Sorry.
This number will not improve greatly because women lack the upper body mass that man have. I have woorked with some damn strong powerlifting women and many of them would be damn lucky to squeeze out 5 pull-ups.

Marine Corps Pullups
Look, when people hear the word "Marine", they expect more than 3 pullups with no kipping. That's all I'm saying. I don't care if you're male or female.

When I hear the word Marine or soldier I don't picture a woman but that is just me. I don't have a problem with women serving but they don't belong in the straight leg infantry or any special operations groups. There will never be a day when most women Marines can do 3 pull-ups unless they SERIOUSLY reduce the amount of women accepted and require them to do at least 2 before reprting to bootcamp.

Well that's the thing you see. The idiots in Washington are making the Marines and Army open up virtually all combat arms MOS's (infantry, armor, cavalry, and artillery) to females. It's fricking stupid and it's going to get people killed when we have another war. It's going to make moral go into the tank and unit cohesion will go to shite. Long story short, they're fricking up the combat effectiveness of the armed forces of our armed forces. Only a fricking idiot would think it's a good idea to mix women with men in combat arms units.
