I am currently in the US Navy and I can speak for most of us by saying most of us dont really ever work out even though we are in the military. These guys have been gone for 6 months working LONG days and their only time off is pretty much to eat and sleep.

We dont get the luxory of working out a bunch while stuck on a ship for 6 months. So most of us (including me) get really out of shape.

Boy Aaron I am really tempted to make a smart comment on this. LOL Go ARMY!!! I will hold back. LOL I am proud of all the branches of the military and all they do for our country. My nephew is in the Navy too and is currently in port at Virgina Beach which he will be out before his ship heads out again I believe.

My cousin is in the army as well...he just got back from Afganastan not too long ago and he is in the greatest shape of his life. He was always kind of porky when we were kids..but now he's tall and has huge muscles!

My brother's best friend is home for 2 weeks - he is in the Army...he was built before he left but from what I hear he is even bigger now. I understand that working out isn't one of their main priorities while they are serving for our country. They have many other things to worry about.

God Bless ALL our Troops!
