Yea i totally get that.. for me it's teh damn 2.4 timing! i can't ever hit 9.30! zzz always 9.45-10... faster i ran was 9.30 and apparently my officers didn't count that as a gold. "we strive for commando standards" oh screw that... I feel like i'm due for the perfect score for months...Well... i'm still working hard. hoping i'll hit gold during my ippt next month.

Guest ahbinge Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 SAF thinking of scrapping SBJ,include push upsand increase 2.4 to 3.2 http://www.straitstimes.com/breaking-news/singapore/story/saf-soldiers-ippt-likely-change-next-year-20131023 SAF soldiers' IPPT likely to change from next year Every soldier, airman and sailor may have to undergo a new physical fitness test from next year. The Singapore Armed Forces is looking to change the Individual Physical Proficiency Test, or IPPT, for the first time since 1982. Key changes are expected to include the scrapping of the standing broad jump station and adding push-ups as a testing criterion, The Straits Times has learnt. Servicemen will also have to run 3.2km instead of the current 2.4km to test endurance over longer distances.The changes could kick in as early as next April. The current IPPT has five stations: the chin-up, standing broad jump, 4x10m shuttle, sit-up and the 2.4km run. The army's assistant chief of the general staff (training) Ng Ying Thong declined to confirm the changes, other than to say the SAF "constantly reviews its training system to stay relevant". "The current IPPT remains the test protocol for individual physical fitness in the SAF," he said. Sources say military top brass is finalising the changes, though senior SAF ground commanders have been told of likely tweaks. Asked yesterday if changes are in the offing, Defence Minister Ng Eng Hen said they are an "operational requirement", adding: "It is not a political dictate and I defer to my SAF generals to tell me whether the system for getting people fit, for helping them to maintain fitness, is appropriate or not." About 116,000 people a year take the IPPT but the Defence Ministry did not reveal pass rates. Many servicemen will breathe a sigh of relief if the broad jump is axed. Failing it, as plenty have, means the soldier has to undergo remedial training. Mindef and the SAF have insisted the IPPT serves as a "baseline measure of physical fitness". Servicemen and women must achieve IPPT standards set according to their gender and age. The test, launched in 1979, initially included half-knee bends and required regulars and national servicemen to take the test in army t-shirts, slacks and boots. Both components were removed. The latest IPPT revision will put the SAF test in line with its Australian and US counterparts. Dr Teh Kong Chuan, senior consultant at Khoo Teck Puat Hospital's Sports Medicine Centre, said running longer distances may not be more intense if the time required to do it is lengthened. But he added: "A longer run will be a good test of cardiovascular fitness and muscular endurance." Personal trainer Chris Chew, who trains people to help them pass the IPPT, said push-ups will better test upper body strength and welcomed the removal of the standing broad jump. He said: "It is about rhythm, which is not relevant on a battlefield and not very effective in strengthening the lower limbs." The jump has seen NSman and accountant Norman Ng fail the IPPT most of the times he has taken it. The 29-year-old, who is due to take his IPPT next August, said: "Hopefully I can do a lot better and pass with a silver to qualify for the monetary reward."

Respell19 Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 One man's meat is another man's poison. Truth be spoken, SBJ is my forte and 2.4km is my weakest station. I would say SBJ is like a "sure score" station for me. Now that they're scrapping this off, I'm a little disheartened. I even have problem running 2.4km, let alone the new 3.2km. Oh god why.

Guest Guest Posted October 23, 2013 Report Share Posted October 23, 2013 this is stupidnow SAF said its error by ST https://www.facebook.com/oursingaporearmy "The Singapore Army wish to clarify the report on "SAF soldiers' IPPT likely to change" (ST 23 Oct 13).There has not been any decision to change our IPPT system.The SAF constantly review our training system, including physical training regimes and physical fitness tests, to ensure that they are relevant and effective, and continue to meet our operational requirements.We have been examining the physical training regimes in other established militaries to learn about the latest training and testing methodology. The SAF will continue to improve the effectiveness of our physical training system to enhance the physical fitness of our soldiers.The current IPPT continues to be valid and serves as a baseline measure of physical fitness.We wish to reiterate that there have been no decision to change the current IPPT system."

I have almost the same results as you (my 2.4km is usually 2-3 secs short of 5 points due to the fact that they use stadium ground instead of pavement type of roads. Mal-adjustment on my side) It sucks to have close to full marks for everything and 2 points for SBJ. And honestly, I can't see how SBJ will measure overall physical proficiency either. It feels like sit and reach. No practical combat applications. No? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
