    Oh give me a break. You're going to put a team of junior enlisted teenagers just barely out of high school who do "organized" PT for about 45 minutes a day up against a team of full-grown men whose full-time jobs are in fitness, and call it a fair competition? How cute. Put some NCOs in the ring - Marines who have actually learned the benefit of prioritizing and incorporating PT in their lifestyle for a few years. Let's make this a real competition.

    I am reading a handful of comments on here, and so far, I agree with what I have read. The influencers are a little bit older than the Marines which means more "training time". Also, the influncers , this is what they do, their job. Marines are to be physically fit but there is so much more to their job. They also don't have time to live in the gym like the influencers. I feel like its not comparing the groups fairly. Lets have the influncers deal with surviving out in the field or at the range. #oorah #marinemom

      Now this is just plain stupid. You're going to put up a bunch of influencers who do nothing but workout in an open field? Marines on the other hand need to workout because they are supposed to survive in harsh conditions. Also, Marines may not "live" in the gym but they workout everyday with little to no rest. Compared to influencers who take a lot of rest. So your "Training time" concept is useless

    Yes the influences are very strong, but to be a marine, its not just about how strong you are, but how strong is your will to survive, and getting through dangerous scenarios. Also the influencers all seems a lot older than the marines and not older like oh 40s old, but older as they have been and have had more time to train. But they will all be badass one way or another. Seals and Coast Guard rescue swimmers are a different breed than all these guys.

As a civilian (and college educated Fitness Trainer), anybody who knows anything knows that teamwork and practice is where the US Military excels.
