Í (Brute Strength) for IPPT

BillGates SG

Hi all, Reading the Straits Times LifeStyle Section got me worried about my IPPT.

I'm not a fit person. I used to fail Chin Ups, 2.4K and Standing Board Jump in my sec school days.

Now, I can pull 12 reps, clock 10:30 but I still have difficulty in SBJ. 2.1m, if I have luck 2.2m. I think I don't know the techniques.

Unlike 2.4 and chin ups, which I can just use brute strength and force, SBJ is something I can't grasp.

I wanna employ the brute strength technique by training my legs. What can I do? Has this Í (Gu Lar in Hokkien) worked for any of you?

Doing frog jumps everyday rigorously should help. My wushu teacher taught me this last time, and my SBJ improved tremendously…

go safra with a mate that will pass and let him take the test for u and its done. damn slack with id checks cos it has no monetary rewards. trail tested proven. end of the day no one in the private sector and self employed wants r t.
staying true to the army adage, do anything, dont get caught

you BillGates give SAF some money can liao scared what Laughing

what i feel is you should try jumping in front of a friend and get your friend to point out on what can be improved in your jumping.

1) Practice tuck jumps at home, ie jump with your legs tucked in as closely as possible
2) Go to the gym. Train your lower body, and your lower abs. Your lower abs help you tuck in easier.
3) Look far ahead, way ahead of your target, when you jump.

If u r a believer of constant gradual training.. there's a proven training regimen from my unit. Dun use elevators.. take the stairs.. everyday. With a bag full of stuff better still. It doesnt take alot of time n juz abt 5 storeys of stairs will do. Oh ya.. fast movement is required. DUn ba long long..

Imagine the obese pple of my unit getting 3pts.. more den half of the pple jumping further den the 5pt mark.

The Secret Technique :

1) Do a normal SBJ to the best of your ability. Note the point you landed on.

2) Close ur eyes, and visualize/imagine yourself jumping and landing way beyond that point.

3) Jump. You'll realize your SBJ has improved significantly.

The trick is, your body is controlled by your mind. And to your mind, there is no difference between imagination and reality.

This is also why the bumblebee (huge body tiny wings), which should not be able to fly aerodymanically, can do so - because nobody ever told the bumblebee that it can't fly.

You don't need the world to believe in you. You just need you, to believe in you.

Why worry about IPPT? Shouldn't you be sipping your Chateau Petrus while being chauffeured around in your 15-seater limousine? So much for being ranked as the richest billionaire for the 13th consecutive year by Forbes. Laughing

Frog-jump up and down stadium bleachers. Do not make small hops in between steps.
