    It's to keep their minds off how crappy their situation is.

      that seems counter productive. this must be why americans are so fat . . .a shortage of food so we must conserve energy lol. If we use that logic everyone should just stay in bed all day and not explore the ship.

      It was explained pretty well and seemed rather obvious to me why Young would want people in shape. Just think back to how much time they wasted dealing with Rush being out of shape in the on desert planet.

      I'll also second the notion that people that are in shape get sick less than out of shape people.

        As a very much in-shape American, this stereotype that we are all fat continues to offend me... and I've met some very overweight Europeans, particular of the English/French/Italian variety...

        In any event, it makes perfect sense; healthy people get sick less (they have little medicine), fit people can perform better offworld (can outrun nasty alien monsters), and should the ship ever fall under attack, these people need to know how to fight and stay on their feet long enough to do some good.

          That would be so awesome if I could do that in real life!

            But then they'd get to leave and when you came back, you'd be all sore.

              You cant get fat if their is no food, and yes their is a shortage, in one episode Young wants to reward Rush with double rations and there is a small verbal fight.

              You seem to have missed that part, and the part that there is no food on the ship.

              And no you should not stay in bed all day, you should just move as much is needed and not over do it.

              And again this is not the states there are no McDonalds every 3 steps.

              Training without any food or very limited food will make you sick, it will damage you, you will suffer permanent damage.

              But I of course have the answers to my own questions

              Where did they get the Clothes, and sneakers --- It is a TV Show

              Why train even though training without proper food and in quantity damages you --- It is a TV Show

              Where are they going to wash all those clothes ---- It is a TV Show

                  They could have gathered food from that jungle planet where thay caught the snake thing.

                  As for the clothes. They were planning on sending a team to the 9 chevron address anyway. I is possible that in one of the crates they grabbed while escaping Icarus, that one of them could of contained clothes.

                    Yes this has been written a million times and answered a million times

                    Yupp they just happen to take with them clothes and sneakers that fit perfectly because everyone know that those things are always kept close to the gate and are a priority.

                    It is like you didn't even watch the show, they were evacuating to earth when Rush suddenly decided to dial then ninth chevron.

                    And you are not going to get fat from jungle food, you are also not going to get enough food to be able to train at all, just maintaining your minimum amount of intake will be extremely hard.

                    But I have answered my own questions, it is a TV show

                      They were planning an off world mission and didnt know how long they would be there for without being able to get back home. So yes. Clothes would be a priority.

                      You must be phsycic knowing weather or not i wach the show.
                      YOUNG (to Scott): "Make sure everyone carries as much of the expedition supplies as they can." They were told to bring the expedition supplies. Wich would've included clothes.

                      I never said they brought back a load of food. I just said the could've gotten something from the jungle planet.

                      And if you knew the answers to your own questions. What was the point of this thread?

                        If they only got one shot at dialing the gate when they thought they figured it out, then yes, they would keep the mission supplies in the gateroom close at hand.

                          ...and again, there aren't McDonald's every 3 steps in the United States.

                              Considering that they brought a crate of plain paper with them, I think it's perhaps possible that they also managed to bring some clothes with them.

                              Also, their shirts; they don't have to fit that snugly.

                              IMHO, the instance in Time of them gathering food is just one among many.

                              As for washing the clothes - same way they wash themselves, I'd hazard a guess (if they don't want to waste water).

                                They're training because Young made it clear that everyone had to pull their weight on the ship, literally. So they can't have people falling down and collapsing after walking a few miles carrying backpacks, or running a sprint to a gate cause horrible shrieking aliens are boring their ways into your teammates chests.

                                As for clothes, you got me there, either they found a repository of ancient gymwear, one of the many crates of worthless garbage they brought with them was fitness gear, or they found an ancient taylor's shop in the Destiny.
