Just found out how crazy RT can get...
-
Booked out at around 6pm today (however that is not the point).
My company RT training is really heavyweight (at least in my opinion). 50 chin-ups, 20 normal push-ups, 20 diamond, 20 spider, 300 hula claps, 20 chin-ups, 100 step-ups, 70 alternate thrusts, 160 crunches, 20 normal push-ups, 35 chicken-backsides, 20 normal push-ups (in that order) -- all in 2 hours. Prior to that, we have done 60 chin-ups as a "warm up" 3 hours prior.
Somemore, this is only my BMT! Is there any chance the physical training would get worse in future units?
I get the feeling that my company is one of the ones in school 2 with the toughest training regime. I heard from my friends that they barely did push-ups for their field camp, while I found myself in push-up position most of the time... -
Why do Rt when you can do so many chin-up and stuff? and what's hula claps and chicken backsides???
-
your company very siao on... mayb wan to get best company.....

i suppose the 60 chin ups are assisted? heh.. as mentioned if u all can do all tt u haf mentioned with std and without assistance den perhaps u r the wrong grp to be targeted for RT.
doesnt matter if ur coy siong or not and other coys as siong or not lah. u r in this coy and tt is the fact and reality now. y bother to compare? jus think of how u can go thru it lor.
oh.. and u mus be one of those recruits who i saw at pasir ris in the evening - and i was wondering if they kanna late bk out or rt.

at first i oso tot is reservist rt.. go and train now lor! -
These are specially designed for people who don't work out often. -
I have no bloody idea, but it seems that they want to "train beyond the point of fatigue" before letting us off... The result is marching to TFT with my DC sergeant complaining of our f***ed marching...
But then again, my company is also very generous with welfare... Once I had 2 canteen breaks in one of the weeks, just 3 days from each other!
Then again, I have heard of stories of companies so slack, I think I am doing overtime... My friend's company sergeants asks them to do only 10 push-ups at maximum at a time, while one of my company's platoon can do 20 push-ups every 10 mins (the maximum legal limit) for moving a little too slow for their liking.
Moral of the story? I am glad I am not in that platoon... -
haha next time ask them state clearly lah. knn scary ok.. train?? think i dun want meh??? just mentally weak nowadays. haha... rotting away......Originally posted by wuming78: at first i oso tot is reservist rt.. go and train now lor! -
