Hegseth’s form is so bad, multiple military fitness experts said he “fails on form” the service’s tests based on his videos, according to a report by The Atlantic’s Tom Bartlett headlined “Pete Hegseth, You Call That a Pull-Up?”
Bartlett noted that Hegseth and the agency he oversees are the ones recording, editing, posting, and heavily promoting these videos (which he mockingly refers to as “Boot Camp Pete” episodes), and he’s the one who declared strict and harsh judgment was the way to go on military fitness issues.
