Gina Carrano would destroy that rope

She would, but 99% of women are not like Gina Carrano

yep. imagine the hell that Gina Carrano had to go through just to be on par with an average male. Yes folks, there is a difference.

She is a lovely strong exception!

She should not be used as a yardstick to other women in terms of physical ability because it would not be fair...

to other women!

Bell curve. She is on the very edge of it, probably the top .01%

That's true. It doesn't take superhuman strength, just average male strength and superior female strength (or perhaps better training). Still, lowering military requirements to accommodate women - I don't agree with.

I think the girl in that video could have pulled that rope properly, with the correct technique, if she planted her feet and put her body mass into it. That said, for a male, even with a flawed technique, that rope would not have been a problem. For females they have to jump through all kinds of hoops, just to be on par with an average male.

Her lack of body mass would probably still be a problem. Women are smaller and lighter than you might think... except for landwhales.

There are no chicks in a mosh pit. (at least not more than once)

Yeah it looks like a technique issue. She keeps it taut and tries to pull; he gives it some slack then a nice sharp yank. Pretty sure she’d have no trouble with this if she stopped doing it like a spastic.

Yeah but Gina Carrano could pass the male PT standards unlike this chick
