I didn't realise we were going to get measured today......While working for the RAF, I got into circuit training a lot, I would go to the circuit sessions 4 lunchtimes a week, and do my own weights circuit on a Friday. Being an RAF gym, the blokes changing room is a room with benches and hooks, and some open plan showers. Generally the blokes would walk around starkers.
One day, after a good circuit, in walks a bloke in a suit. With a clipboard. And then from his pocket, withdraws a tape measure. Then one of the PTIs came in behind him to help him measure the windows in the shower room. He did get some funny looks tho....
for a while we had a Navy PTI on an exchange as well, and he did a "thousand circuit" - 10 exercises, with a hundred reps of each. I got to 700 and something before the end of the hour. And very nearly threw up all over the floor of the gym.
Length? Was a 13 foot tape measure, I didn't see what he wrote on the clipboard tho....
