The ball throw and the 2-mile run are the events Gould is looking to improve upon. But leg tucks appeared to be the hardest for most soldiers across the training formation, he added.

Some people are just built different than others. You're not made of the same fibers as this guy.
Notice he says they were hard. This generation of PS4 doughy boys living in their parents' home until the mid 30's are like putty compared to the guys of his generation.
Drill instructors in 1978 were “borderline sadistic,” Gould said. “We ran every day in boots and utility pants with a T-shirt.”
“Was it smart? No, it caused a lot more leg injuries and it caused a lot more problems running in boots. But we were hard. … I couldn’t do that today,” Gould said. “Honestly, the way they got the fitness program designed here for strength and speed is excellent.”
Remember when boys were MEN, son? Back when a MAN would drink REAL alcohol like bourbon and budweiser, not any of that craft brewery apple pie ipa bullsh!t.
Today's "men" couldn't hold a candle to REAL MEN like the TROOPS. Would a salmon colored shorts wearing Nancy boy be able to torch a vietcong village? Would one of those fat, pasty man children who argues about fake space wars be able to napalm the f*** out of a taliban compound, or call an airstrike on his position?
Because WAR is the true test of a MAN and a 13 week program that's designed to take sedentary individuals and turn them into moderately fit and active cannon fodder is only something that a REAL man can accomplish.
Why don't you go cry some more about how your dad wasn't emotionally available enough and how your relationship issues stem from his inability to open up to you on a more personal level. Wuss. I gotta go shave with an old straight razor and eat my favorite meal of SCOTCH and flank steak

If there’s a thread about a man in uniform, Bart is right there. He salutes them hands free.

Seems like an obvious human interest story to me.
The only reason for Army training is, to make men go to war without asking questions.
If you want to be a tough athlete train for the sport of your choice.

I considered the story to be running related.
As the Army transitions away from their old fitness test (APFT) to the new one (ACFT), the 2 mile run is the only event they kept.
