Standard Weight
Is the weight and measurment standard different in the reserves?
I just joined the reserves after two years of being out. Please dont comment on the fact I joined. I just want to know if the weight and tape standards are different of more of an allowence is given or overlooked, I will pass my APFT but I need to drop a few to pass tape.
I’m in a reserve unit, just got back from iraq. Yes there is the same hight/weight standards as in full time army. But there ussually is more leway with it. Over half the guys in my unit are over wt or tapped over for body fat %. But we all passed our pt test so the CO sort of looks over it and ther are even cases of the height/wt books being doctored up so noone will get flagged. Now this is just how it is in the units I’ve been affiliated with. Basically if your a good trooper, know your shit, and be the type of guy that your buddies can depend on in a tight situation and pass your apft you’ll do ok. Hell one of the best combat soilders I’ve ever been around always tapped over and was always on the fat boy program, but when the shit got bad in iraq he was always at the front putting hot lead on the enemy. My suggestion is if this is a new unit try to come in under the tape test until you see how things are done. good luck.
