New POC info

Post by WannabBootneck »

I have just been for an interview with my CLO at the Manchester AFCO, and was told that as of recent:
Gym Test 1 at POC candidates are no longer required to press up, sit up or pull up to the bleep. It is in free time within 2 mins. All the other points/scoring is the same. Hope PO's find this useful.

That would be absolutely awesome if it’s true. I shall phone my CLO tomorrow to ask just to confirm as I need to book a brief with him (not saying your BSing just want to check).

I followed this up and heard from a Lieutenant-Commander that the bleeps have been taken out of everything and you just have to pump 'em out with good form.

He didn't say anything about the lecturette changing though.
