today, ahah, was a crazy day. heavy training day.
woke up, had break fast. slack for like 30 mins.
did IPPT Catagory Test.
thats just to see how much have we deproved since the start of bike course.
its a one month worth of slacking course.
in the order of the stations, my results are as follows;
sit ups - 42
chin ups - 12
standing board jump - 243cm<
shuttle run - 9.2s
2.4km - 10.03mins
yup, it could have been a 25/25 pts Gold.
thanks to my 2.4, its now a 24/25 silver. btw, gold for 2.4 is under 9.45mins.
and that would also be 5pts. there's no 4pts gold for 2.4
after 2.4 km. we conducter cool down stretching exercises. standard.
and then hahahah, we took a jog to the SOC ground.
thats Standard Obstacle Course. about 500m<>
ran the entire length of the course without clearing the obstacles.
thats 1.5km. so adding the 500m plus run, it would be 2km.
did some static exercises after that. pretty light ones.
washed up, had lessons, lunch, then some lessons again.
and the main course came at around 1600hrs. 4km fast march in FBO.
thats Full Battle Order. field pack, load bearing vest plus rifle & helmet.
hahah, we had a tekan session before setting off.
this is how is goes.
fall in, report strength. IC kanna fuck.
conduct warm up. 1min, everything out.
means every item in the field pack to be displayed properly on the ground.
LT kept time, our IC didn't. kanna fuck.
layout was messy, kanna fuck.
1 min, everything in.
1min everything out. never meet the timing. we clocked 1.05mins.
so we had to run 5 rounds for the 5 secs around the carpark. but we did only 2.
50secs everything in.
50 secs everything out. kanna fuck for i cant remb why. 50secs everything in.
camo on in 1min. kanna fuck. camo off in 1 min.
then 45 secs everything out. kanna fuck again, then 30 secs everything in.
camo on in 30 secs. guess what. i made me I MADE IT HAHAHA.
fully covered my face ears neck back hands with camo and the black stripes.
was made to stand at the front facing the squad, as a positive example.
why he can do it your cannot? if enemy come, you think they can spot him?
and he scolds them for their indivual errors. then he says to us.
because they cant do it but you can, down 20.
i was like eh? okie, no questions asked hahah. wanted to laugh actually.
then 30 secs everything out. never kanna fuck. 30 secs, everything in.
took our field packs, dipped it in a big bucket of water.
cause the items in there are supposed to be in ziplock bags with the sides taped.
prevent water from seeping in.
did our 4km fast march.
did 4 or 5 extra rounds around the parade square.
thats about 400m per round. so nearly another 2km.
then cool down. they treated us to 100plus and red bull.
first time i received a treat from my commanders.
then book out !!!
they are trying to whack us back to shape and way beyond,
hence the tough training. which i seriously do not mind.
LT said i have a very positive mindset, am highly motivated and very cheerful.
he says he has been observing. thats interesting.
to give us an idea of how good we will become after the recce commander course.
he quoted this comment about scout commanders,
from the previous few COs of my unit.
scout commanders are arrogant.
yeah, because at one point in time, we will realise how much better we are,
as compared to the rest.
thats interesting too. lol.
