the Army, in its latest Combat Fitness Test, is reinstituting separate measures for men’s and women’s performance, admitting a single standard cannot be achieved.

"It accounts for the recognized physiological differences between men and women and removes the direct competition between men and women in the service," Maj. Gen. Lonnie Hibbard, commanding general of the U.S. Army Center for Initial Military Training, told reporters Monday.

The Army explained that the scores for male and female soldiers might vary, but the minimum standard of 360 on a 600 scale will remain for both genders.

The changes were made by reviewing data, observing how allies train, and incorporating soldier feedback, the Army said.

Push-ups, sit-ups, and a 2-mile run were considered not holistic enough to meet the new requirements of war, so a six-exercise test was devised that incorporates exercises including a plank, dead lift, and sprint-drag-carry.


Ummm, this is certain to draw all kinds of ugly attention from the mob. Has anyone checked with Rachel Levine?!?! How dare the Army say that there are recognized differences between men and women?!?! What about the other genders?!

Great. In recognition of the great victory women have achieved, let's send them to the font lines first - as an apology for thousands of years of men dying in wars where women didn't.

Stupid whores.

You can’t state these kinds of facts in Dementia Joe’s military. This guy is going to be “retired" real quick

This is where equity takes the place of equality.

1. Don't hold the weak accountable
2. Lower the standards for achievement overall
3. Give bonus points to weaker

No way, you can be a girl or a boy, a man or a woman, whatever you want to be and we are all equal.

We should have one level of sports and no women's sports based on the libtard mental illness.

So if some sissy dude fails the male standard he can come back, pretending to be a woman, and pass?

Maj. Gen. Hibbard will be quickly reassigned to a new, obscure post and ultimately dishonorably court martialed. This kind of heresy will not be allowed in Joel Blinden's New Woke Military!

The implementation of the ACFT has been a giant CF which was to be expected.

The old system wasnt perfect but it worked.

Always wondered which branch Captain Obvious was in.

Now I know he is a grunt.

Wasn't this gender neutral fitness test designed specifically to lower standards so that women could qualify for combat units?


And the lowered standards are apparently still too high since women are failing en masse?


It's almost as if, oh I don't know, THE MILITARY ISN'T THE PLACE FOR MOTHERfrickING SOCIAL EXPERIMENTS

If the Army is forced to admit that gender-neutral tests won't work, wouldn't that mean that they'd have to acknowledge, you know, gender?

Because if the Army goes all pronouns, you KNOW they'll have guys that "decided to be women" to get the easier test.

All this will lead to is lowering the standards/requirements

how much longer do you have to go...

I was successful in dodging ACUs and was retired before Schonover did his stupidity with getting of the old Green uniform...
