    1 minute late....sorry you'll have to reschedule!!!!

    Ok, so everyone on here knows that this is how it works in the forces. However, this was a civilian customer driven business, for them to act like that is unacceptable really. It's terrible customer service, and I know none of you guys would put up with poor service anywhere, not in a...

    Single Quarters & Rations (R&Q) [MERGED]

    We get f*cking fleeced out here on the island, everything costs more. It costs my wife and I between $400-$500 a month in groceries. As much as I love it here on the rock, I can't wait to get back to the mainland where things are sort of affordable. In sort of the same thread, what's the housing...

    Running: Training, Problems, Techniques, Questions, etc

    Your incline should be set between a 1% & 2% grade. The treadmill should also have a pace counter (it tells your average speed and you extrapolate the info) Each different type of treadmill has different levels of the same speed. If that makes sense, each treadmill is a little different, so try...

    stories about your first car

    I got my first car selling "smokes" when I was in high school. It was a VW Rabbitt, I believe at one time there were 9 of us in it. Jeezus it was mad, we use to take along the railbeds (no trains in Newfoundland, or tracks, just a dirt railbed) The last thing we did with it was bust the four...

    The hospital

    Partially broken jaw, two teeth cracked off, another two removed to balance the jaw. Other than that, the hospital didn't have a record on me, I didn't even have a family doctor up until a year ago. It's good to be healthy. That's something I'll never take for granted.

    Big People

    I'm 5'10" 280lbs, you will not find much bigger kicking around. I run, poorly, it's a fact I have to live with, the gazelles had to keep coming back to get me on the runs and had to thank me profusely for helping out on the ruck marches. It's all very ying/yang in the forces, not everyone is...

    Canadians oppose tough, new role for the military, poll shows

    Seems all the polls about the Canadian Armed Forces have leading questions in them. "Would you prefer a traditional peacekeeping military role?" seems like a very leading question to me. Sigh, I really hope Gen Hillier gets to carry through on all this, I hope he doesn't get cowed under by the...

    escape and evade?

    You know Brygun, you've come a long way from your first post where you couldn't do a chinup, to now handing out lectures on army.ca posting etiquette and having at it with some very experienced military personell. I especially like the way you are bashing posters and the board all in one...

    chin-ups

    Would you keep the same routine for two years? No, then why wouldn't I try out the new gym in town and see what it has to offer? Your posts are getting increasingly bothersome. I've been in gyms in Edmonton, Calgary, Oshawa, Fredricton, Gagetown and St.John's, every gym has a different...

    chin-ups

    IR, that's an irresponsible and inaccurate post, not to mention possibly quite dangerous. Oh and I'd like to know which gym you go to that gives you free personal trainers. I've only ever been to one, those were YMCA's, but recently they've dropped that like a hot potatoe, know why? Trainers are...

    Biggest Fear

    Unfortunately I do not have the same restraint, I believe the appropriate title for this thread would be "5K to the outhouse, a book by Willie Makeit"  :D Here's what I saw on basic(res & reg) Some folks get bound up like hay bales and other people get akin to the Niagra, your body will go...

    chin-ups

    Listen, I just went to a new gym today for a test run, see what it was like. First thing they tried on me was the get some personal training time sham. I said, nah I'll wait and see OK. So off I go, and bam soon as I leave the change room it's like f*cking Jurassic park with the trainers on the...
