One in four applying to get into the military are rejected because they are too fat! These are people who want to get in… they want to serve… they want to have the “warrior mentality”….well, the warrior mentality starts with keeping fit, eating right and exercising. You can't be a warrior if you are too fat to fight. Get fit. Get in the game.
