ADSC, Glencourse, 18th Jan.

Can't f'in wait!

hi all

does anyone know if as a female with breast implants, this will be an issue for joining up? i have passed the initial medical part (where they check your history etc) but i didnt say anywhere that i had, had this done (didnt occur to me as it was years ago)

a friend just mentioned he thought it maybe an issue and now i am concerned. can anyone clarify?

thanks

Thanks for the info guys. Yeah, going to Pirbright in Feb. Last question. For the static lift, is it basically a deadlift? Can you use any grip (i.e. pronated or hook grip) or does it have to be overhand? What is a good score? Cheers boys. Just wanna come thoroughly prepared this time! ))

I'd have to look it up (or look them up, ohh err) check the thread JSP 346 as I can't be arrsed to do it for you. I know of several women who have had breast augmentation done whilst serving with no ill effects. The 'worst' thing that happened was one girl in particular kept on getting them out at the slightest opportunity. There were no complaints, as it took the attention away from her big nose.

I'll be the first person to say 'post some pics of them' etc etc before the usual suspects say it and the thread gets derailed.

Static lift is electronic, as in you pull on a handle and the force gets measured by a small computer and gives a read out in kilos. You get 3 goes. I'd never done one before, and they tell you and make you do it exactly as they want. It was an over arm grip.

My read out was ~126kg (you can't see it but they write it down on a piece of paper which you get afterwards).

I never got a bit of paper with my read out :( wanted to know aswell the PRI would not tell us...

How is everyone's prep going over Christmas? I'm finding running in the deep snow quite good actually, and the cold mornings are perfect. Have had to put the revision off until later though with a house full of family!

Got my ADSC date before the break, which is the end of January. Anyone else going around the same time?
