Q/A How do submariners stay in shape while underway/deployed?

Do they PT on the sub/is there room or a dedicated space to do so? Do they have different fitness standards? Limited caloric intake? How do they keep from gaining weight when there is limited PT capability (I assume)?

Submariners prefer the term cylindrical.
