You do know that he said he has 3 joints a day, the 9 to 15 was stating how many his prescription would allow him to have...

I actually think its appaling that gender reassignment is covered, but something as simple as corrective laser eye surgery is NOT, and this would cut costs on eyeglasses. You have to think when a mbr gets a gender reassignment surgery they get a posting of their preference, the move alone is...

Point 2 wasn't me espousing the greatness of powerlifting training for the military carryover.  I was just pointing out/correcting the usage, and to clear up that not all strong/powerlifters are useless soldiers.  I agree that powerlifting alone is not the best way of training for the military...

Point 1 We all can acknowledge there is a difference between field fitness and gym/garrison fitness, but at the same time, its been clearly pointed out by guys who've been there and done that, that there is plenty of time on patrols to throw something with calories in your mouth...hell as...

I have always been of the opinion that work will always be there.  Yes we all have stuff to do during the day at our job, but really, if you cut an hour or 2 of work for PT, its not like the world will end. Also, to be fair being that we are in the profession of arms, PT is PART OF OUR JOBS...

With regards to this, I don't trust PSP (in general) with my fitness, and I can guarantee you that I trust my CofC even LESS with my fitness.  I've seen what some people in my CofC consider good workouts, and proper form on exercises...so NO I would definitely not want them judging/scoring our...

I agree to an extent, with 2 mbrs. one the 5x5 is great, but yes speaking for military use, you'd want to also include some higher rep work 12+ of either the same exercises or different accessory lifts. Look at Powerlifters, most train in such a fashion.  Low rep heavy work on main moves, and...

I hate to break up all the warm and fuzzies, but I have to. Everyone says oh well we've gone through this issue and were done with it and look how well we did. I think we did and are still doing piss poor on the integration of women in the forces. I can't count how many times women at work...

Good ol Pet

Either no one knows or no one cares... Anybody?

Thats to bad I wish the MPs bloused, I think it looks sharp! bout the ICU, i'm not bothering to ask any questions, just waiting out until they are issued, same with brown boots, which I have heard on good authority are already being issued.

Hey guys, So was reading up on the Canadian Forces Small Arms Concentration (CFSAC), and Bisley Cup, etc...and got me wondering, who/how decides who competes at the CFSAC?  Are there teams for every base, are there teams for every unit, how does one go about getting on teams? Do teams get extra...

Happy Wife, Happy Life I think its safe to say most children/wives/families, would prefer to be in an actual city with multiple/better opportunities for education, social life, career, etc... Considering that the US research states their avg SOF operators are married with avg 2 kids, i'm going...

Thanks for everything guys! I'll check this stuff out and pass it on to the youngin'

Need some advice on what to say to one of the younger lads working under me.  He's a loggy, mid-20s and tired of loggy boring snooze fest stuff as he says, and he's wanting to OT.  He has no clue what else to do though (trade wise), so how can I recommend him something when all he's mentioned is...

Couple quick and dirty questions, i'll just fire away (I have searched, maybe I didn't input right keywords) 1. CFAT scores, do they have a half-life or are they valid your whole career, unless of course you want to take it again to get better scores after getting some education. 2. Say you...

Looking at both programs and seeing that the candidates are similarly assessed, the question that comes to mind is why are the programs so different? thing that comes to mind right off the bat, is the strength training in the CSOR program is far better designed, yet both JTF2 and CSOR are...

I think there are certain things that are good about it, but at the same time I feel its missing one or 2 very important modalities/areas of concern. endurance is tested with pretty much all the events, strength endurance with all the max rep weight stuff but power/speed and strength are not...

Everyone brought up the AF types wearing wrong head dress in first pic, but the navy guy is wearing the wrong head dress too!! looks like shyte!!

That's the kicker!! I find it rare to see people (male or female) doing proper all the way up all the way down pushups, so I'm always skeptical until I see for myself.  Its like asking someone how much they bench, unless they've lifted in a powerlifting meet, I don't believe it til I see it...
