last SG · 2005-05-11T00:50:39+00:00

its relax compared to pez A. but think about the extra weight they carry.

octega SG

Yes.
You will be doing Aerobics

During swimming lessons, u know swimming will not be excused. Those who know how to swimming will be going for aqua-jogging.

During inter-company games, u will be pitting against the other obese company in "BATTLE OF THE TITIAN" Mr. Green (no joke)

Gordonator SG

heard that now E company will forever be an obese company.

dragg SG

i think it is important to know swimming before enlistment.

kumokumo SG

why? swimming I only know breas-tstroke, not so good, but can swim 1 lap

LazerLordz SG

I managed to skip swimming throughout my whole NS stint..Have water phobia.But don't ask me how I managed to skip ALL.
You guys have to learn as you go Wink

dragg SG

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!!

octega SG

As I have said, you will not be excused for swimming for those who know how to swim.

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 Mr. Green )

kopiosatu SG

i know how to swim i was excused mah.

dragg SG

during my time those who can swim will swim from one end to the other and rest. thats it!!!

octega SG

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 Mr. Green
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).

octega SG

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.... Sad

kumokumo SG

So which one better, learn swimming or aqua jogging?

Gordonator SG

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. Cool

Laguna83 SG

Don't worry so much lah i also juz pass out from obese bmt, the training there is quite slack now like after lunch the next lesson will be around 2-3pm then normally after dinner there will be no more training. The training there is go by progressively 1 at 1st the endurance run is juz walking then slow jog and slowly increase the distance. Bmt is really fun enjoy ur stay there. Wink

kumokumo SG

tekong what time must wake up what time lights out ar?

Gordonator SG

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.

lights out usually at 2200 or 2230. if got night training until very late, maybe 2300. but very seldom.
