White men can't jump...

If I'm not mistaken, that comment was uttered by an african-american man in reference to the white men's inability to play basketball as well. Of course, it was probably in a comedy drawing on racial lines betweent the blacks and the whites...blah blah blah. I'm not here to talk abt the dichotomy between the blacks and whites, but the bane of my existence, the scourge of my being, the proverbial wall I keep running into.

It is.........the Standing Broad Jump (or SBJ for short)!!!

This exercise has always been an obstacle for me during the times I've had to take NAPFA/IPPT. I went for my test yesterday and that crappy station robbed me of my peace of mind and $200. I hate training for this station. I've still got at least 2 more tries though. Gotta start doing some training in preparation. I WILL NOT LET THIS STATION PULL ME DOWN.
Especially after I've finally managed to maintain being able to complete 10 chin-ups :D.

You may laugh at me, you may not support me, you may even not read this, you may have forgotten me, you might not care one bit...is it too much to ask to show a little interest? I hate having to act like it doesn't matter being relegated to history...I hate wanting to explain it to you since you are oblivious to everything but yourself...Mebbe you'll realise once I'm gone though I highly doubt it.
