Testing time

Heart Rate Cal Right SamllSo I'm taking the IPPT today, whereby if I pass, I will not be required to go to Reme­dial Train­ing Phase II.

The past few train­ings have fea­tured new gad­gets the instruc­tors call heart rake mong­n­i­tors. And they are for you to mong­n­i­tor your own car­dio train­ing, whereby you should be train­ing at 80% of your mas­simun heart rake, whereby it is 220 minus your age.

    I’m tak­ing the IPPT today also. If I fail, I would have wasted both Phase I & Phase II …

    Good luck!

    I was for­tu­nate enough to clear my IPPT by the skin of my teeth until I got to Cat Z and the stan­dards dropped much faster than my fit­ness level, and I got a silver.

    I have reservist frends who sign on RT so I under­stand how it feels. Good luck!

    Zhi­hao, I heard from the PTI that last night’s test was a hor­ror story cos of the Cat 1 storm which delayed some of the run details to 10pm. Good luck and try to enjoy Phase II.

    Well done Waverly, me too! Didja see me sprawled on the pave­ment at the fin­ish line?

    Miyagi man, I sus­pect I’m addicted to your blog, and I’ve been espe­cially drawn to the NS-related con­tent. By the way I’m the one who saluted you for your brave RT attempt, not know­ing it had been pre-arranged for you by default. Hehe…

    Yes, it’s almost orgas­mic to be freely SPURT­ing one’s cre­ative juices via a bor­der­less out­let! ESPECIALLY the way you sub­tly poke fun at the pow­der­ful eng­land spouted by our ever-so-confident encik PTI! The “whereby” catch­phrase is so telling of how pro­fi­cient they are in hokkein-accented engrish.

    And yes, the white-haired encik (I’m pray­ing there are many such enciks, so I won’t be incrim­i­nated for writ­ing this) who sat us down on the parade square before the start of one of my unfor­tu­nate RTs four years ago, started his R-rated sto­ry­telling punc­tu­ated by chee-byes and lan­jiaos, even shared his love­mak­ing fan­tan­sies, so PROFESSIONALLY that instead of feel­ing lousy about land­ing a nom­i­na­tion in the RT list, I breezed through the two hours feel­ing psy­ched and perked up. Even had a hard-on when he men­tioned chee­bye after chee­bye. Good­ness man, we need enciks like him to stir up our fiery manhood!
