SECNAV announces actual physical fitness program
WASHINGTON — Several big changes are coming to the Navy’s Physical Fitness Program, as part of the Secretary of the Navy’s new personnel initiatives, the first being the Navy actually having a physical fitness program, the service announced on Monday. The Navy is blitzing social media with the hashtag #waistlinesmatter.
“Our goal is to keep sailors,” said Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus. “ Last year, we discharged about 1,500. They were so weak and feeble they couldn’t even raise their arms to render a hand salute.”
Mabus wants to strengthen Navy culture through a focus on sustained health and fitness. Likening his program to "an investment in sailors," his intent is to actually get a day's work out of the Navy.
