In regards to nutrition with the goal of endurance, strength and over all fitness and health in mind I would advise you to follow the Canadian food guide. http://www.hc-sc.gc.ca/fn-an/food-guide-aliment/fg_rainbow-arc_en_ciel_ga_e.html Of course different people will need different amounts of...

What do you mean? did he brag to everyone that he got to go hang out with his buddies and drink beer and whatnot? Or because he didn't hang out with his course mates during time off? I just dont want to make the same mistake. thanks.

Ive been inside the rooms and they are quite nice. Maybe your father stayed somewhere else because these are no shacks. They are 2 or 3 story buildings. The building I went into was where the Mcpl's were sleeping so they may be a little nicer inside but the building is the same. On the ground...

I should have really rephrased that. I don't believe that they now understand the true reasons for the invasion. THats not to say that they are incapable of understanding. And I have voted once and have never missed and election I have legally been allowed to partake in.

What does this have to do with anything? I know that this is how democratic elections take place. However, is it not possible that due to so much rhettoric and propaganda people may be un informed or mis informed? Maybe you should stop and wonder why all those people in the world hate us. Maybe...

I'm not politically blasting the USA. I just dont agree with what bush is doing. And due to numerous speeches of rhettoric by Bush, I dont think that the general population of the USA will really understand the motives of the invasion. However, through forums like this I hope that some Americans...

I personally don't think that Bush should be in Iraq at all. The reasons why he invaded Iraq are fogged due to his many lies he has told the world. Did he invade to wage war on the terrorists? probably not. To find Weapons of mass destruction? That's what he told everyone. To gain more political...

I actually got this article in an email  :)

They Died So Republicans Could Take the Senate by Thom Hartmann Richard Nixon authorized the Watergate burglary and subsequent cover-up to advance his own political ambitions. Because Nixon's lies were done for the craven purpose of getting and holding political power, his lies - in the minds...

I wont be needing a brace for my wrist. However I will need to to pushups on my knuckles. Im doing BMQ in chilliwack so its not a full fledged base. There is only the ASU, and summer training company. Whats a chit?

turns out it wasn't a problem with my tendons at all. I went to a physio therapist and he discovered I have hyper mobility in my wrist. The ligaments which attach all my little bones in my wrist have been stretched causing the little bones to float around more, so when i bend my wrist and load...

Saw the doctor today about the pains Ive been having in my wrists. He said it was from over training. Tendinitis it is. He told me to take it easy on my wrists for a while. Told me if I wanted to continue doing pushups to do them on my finger tips or make a fist and use my knuckles. He also...

Whoo hoo. I just got word aswell that I will be attending BMQ and SQ in the Wack.  :threat: Im pretty stoked on that seeing as the base is a five minute drive from my house. whooo hooo. I did the pre basic training there as well, and like Pte Legault said, the food WAS AMAZING. So many choices...

Hey, im experiencing the exact same thing right now. Im kind of worried about it because I cant do push ups with them really hurting. The area I get the pain is if my hand was laying palms down   its on the top of my wrist on the inside, below my thumb tendonds in the wrist joint. I have a...

Sounds interesting, but also disapointing. Im interested to see what course J gayson's friends took. Hopefully not the SERE course. I'm really interested in learning some advanced survival tactics. It's always been an aspiration of mine to go into the wilderness and see how long I can surive.

I'm reffering to the course listed as Combat Survival Instruction listed here http://forums.army.ca/forums/threads/30899.0.html

Just had a few questions about a combat survival course. Firstly, is it even available to the reserves? If it is where and how often is the course run? Also duration and such. What does the course consist of? Is it basically just wilderness survival but training for being in combat survival...

Yes, there are courses scheduled to happen in edmonton. Im  not sure of the dates or anything. sorry

As long as you dont have any hold ups, for example medical stuff where you might have to get your doctor to approve you, you should be able to get into BMQ this summer. However, I was in the same place you were this time last year and because of a stupid medical hold up I didnt get to do it last...

Im not sure if I will be joining you this weekend or not. I know I would like too. I'll have to wait and see what the CO says when I swear in tommorow. What plans are in store for training this weekend anyways?
