What are some good things to bring for the 1st 3 weeks of confinement? Like any games or stuff? How many power banks will be enough for 3 weeks?
Btw, is it true that we have to shave everywhere like legs and down there also lol

I thought there will be free time to pass with ur bunk mates hence the games. And rn i need to charge my phone like everyday maybe twice a day sometimes so a bit hard to imagine 1 powerbank is enough for 3 weeks lol
Oh yah some water polo guy told me about the shaving, i guess its just a water polo thing but he said it reduces drag or something like that.
So is it like 3months bmt then 4 months cdc?

i think those free times are for you to rest and not to play games leh. This is military. Not school camp. Train so hard for an entire day not shag meh.

You in military leh. Now you get to use your phone every minute every second. During training how you use?

You should honestly give the Recruit's Handbook a good read and just prepare the essentials. You don't have to worry about having "free time to pass", because if you really do, the military will have a solution for you.

There's nothing much you have to do at this point to "better prepare" yourself, or that you should anyway, because that's what BMT is for. Go in with an open mind.

powerbank rly depends how much u use. i cant advise u on that.
Shaving reduces drag is retarded, do u think cutting ur hair lets u run faster then? same logic haha
2months bmt, however ur bmt will be slightly different from ur peers in tekong. much more swimming and running. just treat it like a warm up for ur cdc. during ur bmt, the warrant officers can advise yall how much yall need to train on ur own or at all.

to be honest, bmt for ndu youd have abit of free time. come cdc, the free time will be very minimal. coupled with fatigue, youd just wanna rest and talk to ur loved ones and call it a day probably.

i would rather u focus on trying to hone ur technique and condition urself well instead of worrying about shaving ur hair..
then again. do whatever that makes u satisfied. shave for all u want :)
Is not about what you rather. but rather what is the theory.
