Sunday was

Boot camp training at dt and fuark has it been a long time since anything like this aka training. It started 6 and began with the first 20mins of saving private Ryan to pick up the details they present in war movies and to see what a high quality solider needs to execute to rein-act death and bring killed. It was sort of horrible for me because the blood and the murdering of humans is not my kinda thing. After that we had a short talk to point out the details in which we had to pick up for training. Then it was a short run in the dark to peacemaker park (yes ironic I know, solider training at a peace maker park). Basic warm up exercises then it was into circuit training for stamina training and 'dying' training. Basically it was a trailer would demonstrate how to get shot realistically and then fall on to the mat. It was two attempts of that then balance beam walking, crawling in the sand on all-fours then a 10m sprinting charge/scream and a swing around jog back to the start where there were small hurdles zig zagging the way back to some tyres that we had to step in and out of. All of this done while holding a medicine ball 2-5kgs to act like our weapon during the shoot. 3 Laps then a break and then it was instead of being shot in the shoulder and then going limp onto the mat, it was doing a bridge fall onto the mat to practise being hit with like a 50calibre and landing on your back. Like 6 laps of that then it was cut out the circuit running and just focus on the falling and etc. once we finished up that it was a run back to base for a de-brief about what's going to happen with the filming. Ran back to see Maria serving hot pot for everyone. De briefed and then went home with my bike in the boot. (I went by bike to the station and then the station to dt)
