Jesper: Are you and Matthias dating?

Wylan, after he threw up in his mouth a little: NO

Jesper: I find that hard to believe

Wylan: I wouldn't date Matthias if you paid me to

Jesper: Why?

Wylan 😑: Because I like you

Jesper: Oh 😳

Hehehehehe

Jesper: You and Matthias AREN'T dating?

Wylan: Matthias? Ew!! No, I have standards

Jesper: Standards? You? Out here?

Wylan: Eh *shrugs* Some of 'em

Jesper: Thought you said you take what you can get

Wylan: Yeah. Within my standards

Jesper: And Matthias doesn't?

Wylan: Come off it, as if

Jesper: Then who does?

Wylan, absolutely buzzing inside with "it's you, all you": I don't know yet

WOW! It's hard to imagine that elected orifices' could fuck up the military any more, yet here we are. They changed they PT test, then it was to hard, then they changed it again but it's a little to easy and boots on the ground war fighters are getting pudgy so now THEIR PT standards should be different and much much harder than that of the rest of the Army. Great plan, no way this will back fire in any way. What's even better is I bet they also want to move back to a promotion system where PT standards will be weighted higher based on MOS. So an 11 Series would get a high promotion point threshold over say a 92 series for the same type score. Back in the late 80's and early 90's secondary service schools like Airborne gave you a marked difference in promotion points over MOS'es that could not access that school or others like it making promotions much slower in those fields. It also meant that many combat arms skills were promoting troops based on service schools and maxing out the APFT over military maturity and leadership capability. It's why that whole system was trashed. DoD, fix the shit out of it until it's really REALLY broken.

So you want to see me? Here I am 20 years in and still going strong. The changes that I like in the last 5 years even if they were not needed. 1. The Riffle Qualification, We needed to move away from the idea of non-supported, non barricaded shooting positions. Along with working it off of your kit. 2. ACFT, yes the APFT can be don at any time and any place. But the ACFT has shown that we can move our battle off the field and out of danger. 3. AGSU a.k.a. the Pink and Greens, I know why another uniform? But you have to admit the Army NEVER should have gone away from the original Pink and Greens. It is just a damn good-looking uniform. It also makes the blues back to the full formal standard that they were before. Now can we trash the black beret?

Bestie I was having APFT thoughts for you

Maybe Jesper is like jealous of Matthias for a little while because he and Wylan are so close Jesper starts to think they're together. Also, personal HC for Wylan Matthias friendship, Wylan steals Matthias' clothes like a maniac and they're so oversized on him, but I digress. So because of these things Jesper thinks they're dating and that's why Matthias gets so mad at him for flirting with Wylan when it's actually just big bro energy.

Also because Wylan can be dense:

Jesper: So... how long have you and Matthias been together?

Wylan, oblivious: Oh, a few years now.

Jesper: Oh, wow. That's a long time.

Wylan: Mhm 🤗

Jesper: 😞

And then later Wylan is like "WAIT A FUCKING MINUTE" and clears everything up

I think this would be both angsty, funny, and demonstrate Matthias and Wylan's friendship quite well BIT OBVIOUSLY IT'S JUST SOME INSPO FOR YOU 🤗 I'M SO EXCITED 🩷✨

BESTIE ILY SO MUCH

This has cured me of all ailments, it's exactly what I needed. I am a dying Victorian child, begging for a scrap of bread to last me throughout the winter. And you've given me a whole damn BUFFET

Matthias knows what Jesper thinks but he finds it so damn funny how dense Wylan is

Jesper, nearly bursting with jealousy: So, uh, Matthias and you, yeah?

Wylan: Mhm

Jesper: How long've you two been,,, yknow

Wylan: Oh, a while now

Jesper: Really?

Wylan: Mhm. We only really had each other and travelling all that time...

Jesper: Makes you think, doesn't it?

Wylan: Yeah...

Jesper: So you, uh, you love him, then?

Wylan: Matt? Course I love him, he's like a brother to me

Jesper: 🤔🤔🤔🤨🤨

How to Properly Stretch

Stretching before and after your workouts keeps your muscles flexible, strong, and healthy while protecting them from joint pain, strains, and muscle damage. Warm up your muscles with dynamic stretches and cool down your muscles with static stretches.

Stretching doesn’t have to be limited to before or after your workout sessions. Fitness experts recommend stretching every day (doing static stretches) to increase flexibility, improve balance, relieve muscle tension, improve posture, and increase blood flow.

Anyone else feel like Arnold on rest day? I didn't lift this morning but did a different type of training as part of the new workout I'm following. Foam rolling... I've done it before before, and it's totally worth spending the 15 minutes on your rest day to rollout your sore muscles. Current feels... amazing, relaxed, ready for the workday! Folllowbyour program, stick to it, focus on your goals, you can do it. I'll help support if you need it! Have a great day friends! . . . . . @jmpkck #ericburganfitness #iwannahelpyou #FindYourStride #battlebuddyfitness #virtualbattlebuddy #Army #ArmyCoach #Veteran #ArmyStrong #APFT #Military2Business #OnDemand #StrengthTraining #IAmTeamBeachbody #Shakeology #FitAndGeeky #GeekOutFitness #GeeksWithGuns #GeekFitness #geekoutyourworkout #Cybersecurity #CyberFit #superhero #superheros #AverageJoeToSuperhero #LIIFT4 #JoelFreemanFitness @joelfreemanfitness

Increase Sit-Ups During Basic Training

This is my personal experience. My greatest increase in Sit-Ups came from using the plates from the Kevlar vest to do weighted sit ups. Also, static holds work wonders. Do a sit up then go half way down and hold that position for as long as you can. When you feel like you can't hold any longer, force another 5-10 seconds out of your self. You can do it! Also, lie on your back with your hands under the small of your back and hold your feet about 2-4 inches off the ground. Hold that position as long as possible. For an added challenge, do this with your winter boots on. Good luck!
