THE JOB IS BRUTAL. THE PEOPLE ARE HUMAN.

We train for violence. We prepare for the worst. We accept that getting it wrong can cost lives.

There’s nothing glamorous about it.

Long days. Shit sleep. Heavy kit. Unforgiving conditions.

And somewhere in the middle of it all, a bunch of ordinary people laughing at something that wouldn’t be funny anywhere else.

That’s the part you remember.

Not always the weapons, the vehicles or the exercises.

The people.

The ones who stood beside you when things got ugly. Who knew when to take the piss and when to shut up. Who made the hardest days bearable.

Defence and first responders know what it means to be expected to handle the worst of things and still go home as ordinary people.

Some do it better than others.

Some carry more than anyone realises.

We’re trained to be hard. That doesn’t mean we’re made of stone.

Look after your people.

CONNECTION BEFORE CRISIS.

📸 A big shoutout to @thementalera for always pulling together absolutely sick shots. 🔥🔥🤝

A recent study tracked 792 soldiers over 2 years and looked at what was linked to injury, illness and separation from service.

Slower loaded road march times were linked to higher odds of injury, mental health encounters and separation.

300-399 min/week of resistance training had 45% lower odds of injury than under 200.

Poorer sleep quality was linked to higher injury odds.

Higher protein intake was linked to lower musculoskeletal injury odds.

Important: this is an observational study, so these are associations, not proof of cause.

Regardless of your profession, whether it's military, first responder or other LE, build your aerobic base, train strength consistently, and look after your sleep.

Full study:

25 years ago Australia joined the war in Afghanistan and opened up Operation Slipper. 35,000 served. Some never came home including those who's minds wander about it now and then.
This anniversary go to your local RSL branch boys, share a beer and have a laugh. Do it for those who never came home.

They shall grow not old; As we that are left grow old,
Age shall not weary them, as the years condemn,
At the going down of the sun and in the morning, we shall remember them.

Lest we forget. 🇦🇺 by @thementalera
