Thought yall active duty stayed in shape! We started doing pt tests every 2 weeks about 2 months ago, and plt pt 3 days a week! Cause the unit gets more funding if we do good on em, and cause active swears the ng is a fat boys camp. But we do it all at you're pace cause formation runs aren't autorized in a combat zone!

I DO stay in shape... still max out all my tests... but I work in Medical... where all the fat docs and techs work... shit makes me sick... our pace was BARELY above walking... and those fuckers couldn't go 2.5 miles?! GIVE ME A FUCKING BREAK! funny thing is... they some how still pass their PT tests... :wbs: humm... wonder how many have profiles considering they're the ones that write them

I do to... just let me fuck'n run... formation runs do nothing but point out how pathetic people are when they fall out

slip on slipon pipe
tighten hose clamp

Yeah, I feel you! Im infantry so we gotta stay tip top and dont get profiles even when we need em! They probly just pencil whip the pt test rather than the profile.

Yeah, wish I had some of those, cause all I can do is be a cop or a bouncer! Thinking about a stent in the AF to get some technical training under my belt now.
