Is the right answer

I'm right there with you. Ruck 9 miles with a 90 lb pound pack, run 8 without feeling winded but my gut is getting bigger by the day. My last deployment I lifted 6 days a week and stuffed my face with food and lost weight, ever since getting back in conus I've been slowly gaining that weight back. It's all the chow hall food mixed with fast food. Makes us fat as shit

>>getting fat as fuck

how old ?
the answer is a combination of eating more, ignoring cardio for the sake of mass, and metabolism slowing due to age.

you will have to buy a jumping rope* and cut down on pasta.

*very important don't hang yourself

It's the chow hall bro

How often are you doing these things? I don't think anyone on my infantry courses made it through the 3 months without dropping weight, especially with the shitty MREs and doing combat drills all day.

If you're not actually training and just expect to stay lean because you can ruck, you're being silly. Rucking is just as much practice as it is actual fitness. I've seen obese infantry finish long rucks in great time, after doing it dozens of times you just get used to it because your body stops hurting

After all, it just a fast walk with weight. Nothing too impressive

At what level does laughing vigorously count as cardio?

You're getting military memed. Had a friend that went army after high school. He spent a year lifting and reaching chad mode for passing that one test and coasting through basics. His after was worse than his before. Abs were fucking gone. Bitch tits in full swing. Said they did mainly cardio (hiking, running, usually with sacks) and left everyone too tired to lift weights. Meals totaled to 1200-2000 cals a day. Mostly carbs. Said he had superiors that were a pound away from needing walmart scooter of shame.

This.

When I went through BMT a lot of the guys who were actually in shape started fattening up because of the dieting.
