Ideal soldier would be master of calisthenics not weightlifting
>>76664608Why would I want to be a slave fighting for israel?
>>76664611you and your friends can form your own army for your interest
wrong. the ideal soldier plays roblox.
>>76664608Calisthenics are great, but you need to be able to lift and move heavy objects You need to master bothA good example is mountain climbers, they can all deadlift over 3 plates but are also strong with calisthenics
>>76664608>armies want everything but only the cheapest possible>calithenics needs no equipment therefore no investment>soldiers are disposable moving covers, see no hand-to-hand combat at tier 3 (operational maneuver warfare) level therefore they don't need to be capable fighters (strength, flexibility, speed)>they need to move and carry around an insane amount of gear though which needs powerendurance ... which is exactly calisthenics
>>76664608idgaf I'm not going to die for Israel anyway. might as well get jackad af lifting weights instead of doing some faggy ass calisthenics lmao.
>>76664608The ideal soldier in the modern world sits on their fat ass an controls a drone from an office building, like playing a video game
>>76664608Nice circus performance, bro, it would be a shame if somebody were to drop a fragment grenade from afar.
>>76664608>practicing sex positions for the gay orgyclassic armed forces
>>76664666> Calisthenics.Wrong, they need to be doing carries, cleans & jerks and overhead squats if we were to keep them to bare minimum of weight lifting. Functionally they need to be able to climb underload and crawl under load, so they should practice weighted pull ups and crawl drills, for operational fitness they should be doing these in the form of Parkour courses (obstacle races) instead at a regular gym. They should be at least fit enough to do 20 loaded push ups and 10 pull ups in their regular loadouts for the average soldier.
>>76664696You can't have sex in that position, either way, reminder australians lost a war to Emus.
>>76664632I refuse to believe this is real
>>76664608Great, go do your calisthenics and bleed out in a desert on the other side of the world. I’m going to lift weights and play video games.
>>76664608The ideal soldier is a drone that can kill you from 13,000 ft. Welcome to the future.
>>76664608WrongName one single advantage of calisthenics over weight liftingThere is none
>>76664701So, kettlebells?
>>76664608The ideal soldier is 5'8 and 140lbs.
>>76664910Well for one, you have an incentive to not be a fat fuck if you want to progress, unlike powershitting
>>76664608The ideal solider is a small guy by today's standards so yeah. Manlets are pretty useful in armies for logistics for every 6 or 7 of them you can afford to feed an 8th compared to normal men. They tend to survive injury less which is also better it's literally cheaper to train a new one than it is to care for a wounded one.
>>76664608Who is claiming otherwise retard?
>>76664701>I believe that ideal preformance is cost effective, The PostTM>ppl were and are stupid but I would set things right if I were in charge (like the perfect armchair general I am, chairborne rangers lead the way! hooah!)
>>76664701>doing carriesCorrect. Buddy and litter carries in full kit. Agree.>cleans & jerksNot with you on this one. Most normal dudes can press what they need to press as far as kit/weapon/ammo goes, and you're going to have assistance with casualties the overwhelming majority of the time. I think a better option than the C&J would be 2 and 4 man litter presses in full kit. More realistic, don't need weight set, can be done anywhere.>overhead squatsAgree with squats, but not with weights, rather with full kit and litters again. Same reason as above.>need to be able to climb underload and crawl under load, so they should practice weighted pull ups and crawl drillsAgree with that. Sprints in full kit too.>should be doing these in the form of Parkour courses (obstacle races)Agree. O courses are better. The forces have a problem with them because they're dangerous, and modern western military commanders are danger adverse because they're more concerned about their careers than their duty to create capable soldiers.>should be at least fit enough to do 20 loaded push ups and 10 pull ups in their regular loadouts for the average soldier.Agree with that too. Only thing I'd add is long range movements and forced marches under load for sustained cardio and endurance abilities. Doesn't matter the environment, it's always going to take walking under load to infiltrate certain areas and targets, and to clear and hold areas inside and outside of urban areas.
>>76664910>Name one single advantage of calisthenics over weight lifting1. Don't need special equipment.2. Can do them anywhere.3. Less likely to cause injury, though they still can.4. Can progress to using not only body weight, but weighted body weight exercises.5. Creates better practical strength and endurance that mogs the fuck out of weight lifters in a fight.
>>76664910Because when you’re in the field you’ll never be able to put down enough calories to maintain muscle mass. The only buff dudes in the military are POGs who get to go to the chow hall 3x a day and sit on there ass in an office or shop. Everyone loses 20lbs on a FTX.
>>76664611Can't imagine fighting for your family or local community huh?
>>76664611>muh IsraelPfft war is good fun if you are fighting an utterly technologically inferior opponent. I was nigh unassailable in my MRAP. Soldiering is about money and sport, not your silly ideology.
>>76664608No man. Ideal soldiers have been strong men with serious meat.If your soldiers go in lean they waste away. If they go in thick and sturdy they waste into lean and their shelf life is much longer.
>>76665982That isn’t soldiering. That’s police work abroad.Don’t call yourself a soldier.If you weren’t on the receiving end of a tank division supported by an airwing. You aren’t a soldier.If you at any point had anything with sugar in it.You aren’t a soldier.thems the rules. Sorre
>>76664608>training 200 guyswe have like three weights man>calisthenics
>>76664666I’m gonna need a name there, satan.
