This stress about body fat percentage doesn't just impact the general public, but also the United States military. The military saw a correlation between higher body fat percentages in soldiers and lower Army Combat Fitness test scores. The U.S. Army shifted from an emphasis on body fat to an emphasis on simply passing the physical fitness tests. This means that the military is no longer limiting the definition of being athletic to a soldier's body fat percentage. Though this is a positive move in the overall understanding of fitness, medical data still indicates that having too high or too low a body fat percentage carries its own risks.
