I haven't really looked into the zombie guide, a friend is reading it right now. I'm joining the Army, right now the only thing holding me back is my weight. I need to lose not only fat but muscle, which is annoying since I worked so hard to gain that muscle...

BS
#1) You can get a waiver to join the military for ANYTHING... even being to stupid to pass that ridiculously easy ASVAB (I know, I had people in my unit that failed it)
#2) It's only body fat they care about... not muscle. Furthermore, so long as you can complete the physical fitness tests, that's all that really matters. They just know for a fact mr 5'5" @ 220lbs with 20% body fat can't do it. PS: we had some major fat asses in the army too.
