Stretching and Leg PT for everyone! Today in the afternoon, my PC told me I was free to do whatever I wanted for the guys for PT! ( I am the so-called in-charge for PT for the guys anyway) and PL2 2IC asked if his guys (Platoon 2's current operators) could join my training too, sure why not?
I had planned out a really tough leg PT regime to help improve their standing-broad jump. So I had uphill power-runs for them, stair-jumps, front and rear lunges, relay standing-broad jumps, so not only was I conducting, I did everything with them, so there was no excuse, several specs tagged along and trained with them as well.
I did an elaborate stretching session after they were done with their own warm-ups to further supplement their warm-up, and demonstrated my stretching methods, we didn't do full splits though, but I did splits myself when asked to demo by one of the specs. That was amusing, I think that image will be permanently etched into their memories about today's stretching session on their lower limbs
Later at night, I received a lot of comments on my insane stretching today both from those who did the training, and those who didn't, from the 2LTs, specs and my trainees. Tough training by me is good!
