The thing about reaching 50 push ups is that after you can do 20-30, you are strong enough to do 50, you just need more endurance. You can get to 20-30  by just doing push ups, as muscle memory is key. From there, it's just a matter of doing a lot of push ups and making gradual steps up over...

http://www.artillery.net/English/rhquniforms.htm I think blue looks great. The pictures take a bit away from it, but still.

Well megsy, that is a pretty hard to answer question without some key details. How many proper push ups can you do consecutively? If you can do them properly, you should, even in sets of 1. 10 sets of 1 everyday, and then at the start of everyday, push for 2. When you can do 2, push for 3, and...

http://www.espritdecorps.ca/At%20ease%2013-12.htm This is my all time favourite "At Ease". Followed closely by the modified Chuck Norris jokes, also referencing General Rick Hillier, and the search for a nick name(ended up being "The Big Cod") for General Hillier. What's your favourite "At...

Life Sciences are things like Biology and Biochemistry, while Physical Sciences are things like Physics and Chemistry.

I know ROTP isn't free. In fact, what you learn at University and while training during the summer makes the graduates of ROTP a worthwhile investment, even after 5 years, especially considering the boom the economy has experienced, and how valued university degrees can be in Canada's workplace...

I meant the raises are comparable. Obviously the amounts are very different.

Considering going through ROTP you're being paid to go to school and train, it's been going up way more than it probably should. Which is amazing in that they continue to up it despite the fact that they are paying the hefty price of an education.

I know. It's just there to compare to the next(hopeful) update. On another note: http://www.forces.gc.ca/dgcb/dppd/pay/engraph/204.2111_e.asp?sidesection=3&sidecat=28&alt=N&key=OFFICER-CADET and...

Yep Reg Force rates. I also added the April pay scale as well. These are for ROTP canidates as well.

http://www.impulseadventure.com/weights/100push.html Just in case anyone is looking for alternate methods.

So, you've been looking for a way to enhance your second language(French)? Perhaps you are looking to become an officer in the CF, or maybe just want to reap the advantages of being a bit more competent in the other official language of Canada. There is an free and easy way in which you can...

In truth, the hardest part of exercise is routine. Once you have a routine the rest falls into place. An easy, seemingly time-efficient method causes people to justify using it and to keep using it. This results in gains that surprise them.

Wow, that is a lot of useful information, but it seems on the case by case basis. I guess the point I got was to not bring it up, but don't lie when asked. Though, that's what I picked up from reading a lot of posts. Thanks.

Thanks for the information. I kind of figured that even of the chances were a bit higher, they were canceled out by the vast amount of applications. On a different note, I wonder if you are given more of a hard time on basic because of the heightened expectations of a person with wings? I...

Interesting. I guess it's just one of those things where if they see what you are made of and like it, you get a once in a lifetime shot at it.

I was wondering if being a qualified Basic Military Parachutist upon enrollment into the Canadian Forces would increase your chances of being posted within a para coy, since you already have the basic course completed.

Once daily does the trick if you are willing to push it each week. Other than that, I'd fully recommend picking a room in your house and every time you enter it you do a set of the push ups that you are doing today. Combine that with the routine and you get a much smoother transition between...

These are properly done push ups(aka, the way depicted in the video). Hands under the shoulders, push up and lock the elbows, down to just touch your chest to the floor, then back up. This is meant to be an easy way to set a goal, and takes no more than 20 minutes daily. Nothing fancy, just...
