In a recent move aimed at standardizing physical fitness requirements across the US military, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has directed a comprehensive review of fitness standards for combat jobs, with a key focus on making these standards gender-neutral.
This directive aims to ensure that all personnel in combat roles meet the same fitness criteria, regardless of gender, based purely on the physical demands of the job and the readiness required to confront potential adversaries.
