The average american has never walked a meter in their whole life. We’ll be dead in the cold cold ground before we measure distances in things easily divisible by 10.
Yeah, that was a bad idea when the military members were being sacrificed to protect profits. It’s worse now that they will be used to attack their fellow citizens at home.
The only reference that that I could find quickly googling, is the repost of repost of repost of some unspecified study that someone did, measuring readings from some unspecified fitness bracelet. Even if we assume it exists, even if we assume it measures correctly, even if we assume it’s not an ad for something, it is a study about people health conscious enough to buy and regularly wear a fitness bracelet. And among this cohort, the average is just 3.2 km.
I agree, it’s a bit more that 300 meters, but not by much actually.
I took the lowest end measurement of the worst cohort in the study, actually, and even then they did over ten times the amount of walking you claimed. That’s not a ‘bit’ wrong, that’s off by an entire order or magnitude. And for the record, the entire rest of your post is made up as well- the studies are easily available, the fitness bracelet was given to them, it clearly delineates what bracelets are used, and a wide variety of ages, sexes, occupations, etc etc were studied.
The average american walks about 2 miles a day. 22km a week is definitely not 300 meters.

Don’t join the military then.

I mean, yeah, good advice in general.
