Life in Obese BMT
-
i am sure you know how difficult it is in water if you cant swim. all other trainings are done on land. so it is ok, tough but ok!!Originally posted by kumokumo:why? swimming I only know breas-tstroke, not so good, but can swim 1 lap -
As I have said, you will not be excused for swimming for those who know how to swim.Originally posted by kumokumo:why? swimming I only know breas-tstroke, not so good, but can swim 1 lap
Those who dun know how to swim, will be taught.
Those who know how to swim will be going for aqua-jogging.
Aqua-jogging:- Jogging in the pool, u will be putting on weights and jog from 1 side of the pool to the other.
(As we REC back then, we called it Ah-gua (gay) jogging, because basically, u jog like an Ah-gua in the pool
) -
i know how to swim i was excused mah.
-
during my time those who can swim will swim from one end to the other and rest. thats it!!!
-
I give a quick one:-
Training wise, u will be learning and doing just the same as your PES A/B counterparts.
The only difference here is your training is stretched into 5 mths (I think, I also forget liao)
Typical day
Each day begins after breakfast:-
Area cleaning
draw arms
5BX
Edurance Training
Lectures in super cold lecutre hall after water parade
Field training (if applicable that day)
weapon training (if applicable that day)
drills (if applicable that day)
more edurance training / SOC / Aerobics / Swimming / Gym / Games (as in basketball, etc)
Inbetween days there are IPPT reviews. U need to improve ur IPPT as u progress.
Each day ususally starts at 5 something in the morning (when u wake up), ending around 10 at night (when u sleep). -
Dunno leh, mine different, all go into the pool. We jog for the same period as those who were learning to swim. I also thought I was going to be excused but hiaz....
-
So which one better, learn swimming or aqua jogging?
-
aqua jogging no need to learn one. they will give u a float to tie around your waist and u just basically jog in the pool. quite fun.Originally posted by kumokumo:So which one better, learn swimming or aqua jogging?

tekong what time must wake up what time lights out ar?
-
reveille 0530. meaning everyone must fall in and water parade for your daily 5BX. so must wake up at around 0510 to do your wash face/brush teeth, change into PT attire, make your bed, fill up your water bottle etc.Originally posted by kumokumo:tekong what time must wake up what time lights out ar?
lights out usually at 2200 or 2230. if got night training until very late, maybe 2300. but very seldom. -
wah one day 7 hrs sleep....
-
7 hrs!! so long?
during my time we slept at 12-1am and woke up at 5-6am depending on the schedule. -
weekend, normally what time book out, what time must book in?
-
wondering do since tekong have such nice building now do you still used the mosquitoes net and take malaria pills? btw i think should put the obese guys on the top floor so they can get up and down everyday.
-
5BX means what?
-
i don't know about the current 5 day working week booking out system since i'm still under the 5.5 day working week last time. commonly is book out on saturday before 12 noon and book in sunday night from as early as 6pm+ to 8pm+.Originally posted by kumokumo:weekend, normally what time book out, what time must book in?
5 basic exercise.Originally posted by kumokumo:5BX means what? -
what are the 5?
-
changed already after an obese rec passed away from my previous batch. As long as you dun do stupid things, can book out oneOriginally posted by ToffeeClub1929:For those who can pass IPPT and SOC, your book-outs are as per normal.
But for those who fail, especially IPPT, got RT lor until evening time. As each week gets by, you are supposed to achieve a certain target at each station, eg 3 chin-ups, 12:20 for 2.4km. And these targets will get higher by each week lor. But that was for me lah, maybe rules have changed, I am not too sure. -
dun ask so much lar, just go in and taste the experience, somethings cannot be explained in wordsOriginally posted by kumokumo:what are the 5? -
they stil do log pt nowsaday??
