There are really two issues there. The reality is that all military’s are facing this.
First is obesity, which is now the # 1 preventable killer in N. America. As a result; fatter recruits. So we have to get recruits in shape before we train them. Canada does the same thing.
The good part is we now know that all that crap we did 30/40/50 years ago is more harmful then good. The idea now is to get people in shape without injuring them. Sounds like the Americans are on the same track as the Canadians.
