This is the same woman everybody thought was too big and manly when she was flexing. Pauline Nordin.

So again, the other pic was largely angles and exertion, but there is little doubt even in this picture that she is a physical specimen. Which FemShep would absolutely have to be. But it is unfair to make beauty inversely proportional to strength. Pauline has no problems in sexywear either.
thats a bodybuilder/fitness model, you don't gain that sort of tone and build unless you train for it specifically, Army training usually involves training periods that are too long to actually build up your muscles like this. there is no focus on one muscle at a time and no rest periods. mostly its just your legs and back muscles that see minor VISUAL improvement.
I've got three brothers two of whom are ex-Navy and one of whom is in now. Over time, I've known a lot of guys operating out of the So. Cal area both in the Core and out of Coronado. None of them could count their military training as their first foray into athletics.
Before SEALS even begin the dive portion of their training they're already running 14 1/2 miles, swimming 5 1/2 miles, doing ingress and egress at the shoreline after carrying their own boats overhead while double timing through sand, handling insane obstacle courses, and being mashed for 4-5 days straight on a total of 5 hours sleep. Even without the Hell Week, this requires something in excess of triathlete level fitness. Add the gear, and you are not talking about people who were "average" to begin with.
This man below, who owns this gorgeous body, is a SEAL, photographed as part of a story on the teams shortly after the Afghan Team 6 mission. He did not just start looking like this when he fell out at BUDS. And that V shape and those arms are most definitely the result of isolation at some point during his life. Or else, with a back that wide, he would not taper down to external obliques that I could break my teeth biting into. And I would. And would come back with dentures and do it again.


Do you see my FemShep on the other end of this log, or Bioware's?
