RT?
-
If kena RT then for working people how?
-
U will still hav to go for RT. Cannot avoid one... btw, u know RT is 2 times for 8 weeks or 2 times for 4 weeks then another 3 times for next 4 weeks?
-
so they hold it in the evenings? over the weekends?
-
The old system
Phase 1 twice a week for 8 weeks, IPPT test every 4 weeks or so.
Phase 2 thrice a week for 4 weeks, IPPT test at end of 4th week.
The new system (I heard)
For phase 1 twice a week for 4 weeks,
For phase 2 thrice a week for 4 weeks
For phase 1 RT, you need to book 1 week day and 1 weekend session.
For phase 2 RT, you need to book 2 week day and 1 weekend session.
If you miss 1 week day session you have to pay back 1 more weekday session.
If you miss 1 weekend session you have to pay back 1 weekend session.
You cannot pay back 1 weekday for 1 weekend, likewise cannot pay 1 weekend for a weekday very strict.
This is valid for both Phase 1 and 2.
You can postphone RT but you must makeup as above.
Not sure if you can still make changes to RT venues.
I cant remember really, but I think If you postphone more than 3 times then ... immediately out process and SAMULA!! -
Here is how it works:Originally posted by muchie:U will still hav to go for RT. Cannot avoid one... btw, u know RT is 2 times for 8 weeks or 2 times for 4 weeks then another 3 times for next 4 weeks?
Phase 1 (4 weeks) - 2 sessions (1 weekday & 1 weekend)
End of Phase 1 - take IPPT
If pass, done and over with RT.
If fail, go for phase 2.
Phase 2 (4 weeks) - 3 sessions (2 weekdays & 1 weekend) -

normally depends on mood and which day it is.Originally posted by Big Bot:So 1 time how many hours?
if not mistaken previously, PTI's work all week incl sat + sun. Fridays are off days, now not so sure.
Normally RT sessions are basically circuit training. 2-3 sets followed by 4 klick run per day session are normal. Normally up to 7:30-8pm.
But If camp that day got many officers or commanders or journalist around, PTI's have to "on the ball" are particularly harsh in tekan sessions which can include 3-4 sets and run around until 9-9:30pm also seen before.
If I choose my RT schedules I go for a bit of strategy. I will take thursday and sunday.
Thursday last working day of week for PTI who may be anxious to go home to get drunk & screw their wives/girlfriends.
Sundays, camp is like a ghost town, sometimes PTI a bit lazy mebbe 6:30-7pm "good day" leow. -
If i were u...i quickly go jog 1000 rounds and do 1000 chinups in 1 week and try to clear those indoor ippt.
Okoki, juz kidding, what im saying is go do extra training lor...get fit quickly and get out of shit hole...
RT is sian lor...rather train on my own...
-
But most of us got work and family commitments so hard to find time to train leh...maybe it's just an excuse. Going to RT is really sian, but cannot pass also no choice...everyone's body is different. Some pple need to train for 2 weeks but some need to train a few months ahead bofore IPPT...
-
yes that is jus an excuse.Originally posted by muchie:But most of us got work and family commitments so hard to find time to train leh...maybe it's just an excuse. -
yes....but sometimes its also mental strength when u taking IPPT. Just like me, b4 i take 2.4 run, my legs will go soft already....don know y? Anyone knows which is the best place to go RT - Bedok, Maju or Khatib?
-
it takes discipline to maintain a training regime. but trust me once u get started and commit fixed time slots each week to do it rather than as and when depending on mood, it will be much easier.Originally posted by muchie:yes....but sometimes its also mental strength when u taking IPPT.

Does anyone knows when is RT can start if you fail IPPT at the end of yr IPPT window? Is it direct after window closed or 1/2 months later?
