I've been thinking about joining the US Military for a long time ever since I graduated from High School but, there was always one problem with me joining. I have always been really scrawny my entire life. when I was about 7 years old I was taken to a hospital to get blood drawn as my mother thought I had some sort of disease or illness for as skinny as I was at the time but, I have just always had a really high-metabolism I had to drink Ensure just to put on weight but even then I still didn't start to make a dent in "filling out" until my freshman year of High School. After Graduation I am now 5 foot 11 inches and I weigh 140 pounds. The problem I have is that my body looks kind of chubby and my legs look fine but, my arms... look like twigs and no matter how many pull-ups or push-ups I have done in my life they have never changed at all I do 25 push-ups and 5 pull-ups every morning for 3 years since my graduation with some variation to the workout but, still they don't look any bigger and my worry is that a I'm going to go down to MEPS or get into Basic and be disqualified because of my noodle arms.
If anyone can relate or give some feedback, it would be greatly appreciated. Please don't tell me to stuff my face with Junk food/eat lots of peanut butter or stop working out all together, I have already tried those methods years before I asked this question. Thank you!
