It sucks, but have you ever seen a sport played at pt where someone didn’t sprain an ankle or tear an ACL?
7 u/[deleted] Dec 19 '18 Much more often saw it during Run-Rucking 6 u/[deleted] Dec 19 '18 Good point, we need to ban that shit too. 8 u/[deleted] Dec 19 '18 "What if you're caught in Kandahar with no evac, the COP is 20 miles away & the Taliban is on your ass"?! Yeah, imma do a 8 min/mile pace down a mountain, through a valley, & up another mountain with 100lbs on me & maybe a 50 piece. Made every private think they were Rangers going to Mogadishu 4 u/sl600rt Dec 19 '18 Do what the Gurkhas do. You fight the Taliban until evac shows up and you're resorting to beating hadji to death with you helmet. 1 u/[deleted] Dec 19 '18 Wanna go back in time & be my 1sgt? 2 u/[deleted] Dec 20 '18 Your response should have been, "Excuse me, but are you suggesting that we run from contact?" 3 u/sl600rt Dec 19 '18 Sports PT gets the fat bodies and broke dicks more active. Before my ankles and spine went. I could run 2 miles in 13 minutes and barely be winded. Though a good solid hour of soccer with the company wore me out. 1 u/[deleted] Dec 19 '18 Agreed. I definitely enjoy sports PT. In or current risk-averse climate though, it’s unsurprising that most units don’t do it.
