2 weeks down, 7 to go
7more weeks till i pass out as a physical training instructor
till then, it's tough training everyday but i just gotta pull through this period

i'm already seeing the benefits in my performances
i feel lighter, faster and not to mention slimmer. haha
the standard obstacle course is our playground
clearing it now seems second nature.
but doing it with a 5kg bag pack and after a long run is tough.
practising standing broad jump across the parade square makes the legs shake.
its all energy draining, but tough training is the only way to improve one's self.

we've not only become stronger and fitter but also gained more knowledge on each type of training.
knowing the correct techniques of sprinting, running and jogging, the breathing techniques, etc
each training session we know more about what this and that training helps in building up our different systems of our body.

and being the pilot group of the new PTI course, we go through theory lessons such as anatomy and body composition.(not just physical training)
SCDF got lecturers from various schools such as NIE and Spore Sports School.
the knowledge they pass onto us are very helpful.
it really helps me to understand the way my body works and thus helps me train better.

the first 2 weeks were tough and there were some problems
but everything now has settled and i'm getting used to the schedule
friendship among the 15 of us are good
teamwork is everything in this course
there is no strongest, there is no weakest.
everyone goes through the same thing and we gotta pull through together
only that way all of us can sucessfully complete this course

Perserverance and Endurance
