I called it Pathetic because it's so simple to do.

8 press ups come on I would have to gain 20 stone to stop me doing 8 press ups. As for the run and the sit ups they are no real measure of fittness are they. The whole thing take less than 10/15 minutes to do. And only once a year. Some test.

When someone says 'Hey Bloggs' get down the gym and do your fitness test i'll go and do it but until then I have a day job to do.

If I thought I was unfit or overweight then I sort it but I do not require a gym to do that.

Having never failed the test and... Once just having my card stamped for turning up. (PTI wanted to get off home.) another time we ran 4 or 5 lenghts and the PTI turned off the bleep tape and said thats fine..stamp on the card off we the trot. I cant see the point ...yes pathetic isn't it. Come on if that is happening to me how many others out there just get their card stamped for tunning up?

As for the trade ...trade group 2........but not for much longer....
