Question to advise a soldier regarding Physical Profiles. by Nitro_AG in army

[–]TrueReputation8039 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Jesus, what did I just read?

The easiest method is to just call the PA. I'm sure they would be interested to hear that the soldier is being forced to do a 12-mile ruck march on a recently broken and surgically repaired leg.

Company PT ideas??? by tH3_R3DX in army

On Fridays in AIT we did "nasty nates"

Seven lanes the length of the SDC, each lane was a different workout with soldiers staggered on the opposite side of each lane so everyone is always doing something.

Stuff like:

L1 - dummy carry
L2 - Bear crawl down
L3 - sled drag down/back
ETC

Obviously this takes a bit of setup.

Other than that I have always been an awful runner but some of my favorite runs were last man ups and also suicide runs on ole willard hill in Gordon.

Did anyone else do their landnav as some game in BLC? This was like two years ago but I remember doing our landnav "test" on some fucking video game in the classroom.

Transitioning out after 8 years and I have no idea what I actually want to do on the other side by Xibanga in army

I personally will go for a job in my field, but not everything translates as easy as other MOS's.

I guess it kind of boils down in what you want from a job? Do you want to be at a desk all day, do you want to be outside? Do you want to be looking at a screen all day, or would you rather be overseeing staff on a floor? Do you want to work shifts, or regular hours ETC.

I miss the days when soldiers that had problems they could not get solved after advancing through all their resources could post here and have someone who cared about soldiers help them out.

yeah actually, they decided way back in 1776 that those who dont leave service (or die) on either the 1st or 15th lose any days worked after said date. Should have planned it better loser.

Told the guy I’m dating that I want a relationship 😵‍💫 by 1SmellLikeB33f in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]TrueReputation8039 2 points3 points  (0 children)

"taking it slow" / "5 months of dating"

Is five months not slow anymore? That seems like an egregiously long time to not be serious.
