Last Minute Tips

Post by lil_dinger_bell »

So gents, I leave in 11 days to fly over to the other side of the pond for my POC and AIB and want to thank you guys for your help with everything.

Before I leave ...and after I shat my pants....too late...I just wanted to know if anyone had any parting words of wisdom??!!

Your tips and talks of pepppy proportion would help keep me from sh*tting bricks

.....well...keep on keeping men

Makes me laugh when people say they are nervous about going on Prmc or Poc ... The things i would do to be back down at lympstone. Just Crack on and dont give in you'll be fine .

Don't give up, for POC keep up with current affairs massively. Without trying to put you off expect a hard time especially on the 2nd day of phys. Just hang in there and don't give up!!Oh and my number one tip, if you find peters pool too cold just piss yourself for warmth :lol:

Good luck Dinger, I don't think you need any words of wisdom, I think you know exactly what you've got to do.

While your doing the endurance course though, I'll think of you mate, because I'll be at my G/f's villa in Spain getting some rays (maybe some sucky sucky) and sipping on a Pinacolada lol.
- If you overtrained, it means that you didn't train hard enough to handle that level of training

- Perseverance is the hard work you do after you get tired of doing the hard work you already did
