Running, Racing and Physical Test

The real challenge is racing or running for an Army participant. It’s clear that you must have to endure the pain to be an Army person. Remember that no pain, no gain. Candidates need regular practice. It is not possible to run 1600 meters in 5 minutes without any preparation and face a crowd where you will not even get an inch of free space. Therefore, you must have to start your preparation well before at least 2 or 3 months of Bharti to prepare your body as well as the mind.

• Running: 2 to 4 Km. in 15 minutes
• Skipping
• Pushups & Sit-ups: Minimum 20 each
• Chin ups: Minimum 08
• Rope Climbing : 3 to 4 meters.

Here are some practices you need to apply to you:-

Maintaining Regularity

The most important part of racing is maintaining it on regular basis. You will have to build your stamina. You need at least 2-3 months or more to prepare best for your preparations. So now the question is when to start practising, the answer is Now. Although candidates should do practice daily as it is also good for health and it keeps the body fit.

How to Start

You should have to take a strong decision. Once you decided to start from the day you choose, you must stick to it and start. Always run in the superior pair of shoes, don’t try to run barefooted. Running with barefooted can cause a lot of injuries which can lead to a lot of pain.

Before Running

Try to choose the time in the early morning and/or evening for running. As we already told you that don’t try to run barefooted. In the morning, drink normal water at least 20-25 minutes before running. Don’t drink too much. Having fruit like a Banana at least 15-20 minutes before running can be preferred. In the evening, make sure you have your meal at least 2-3 hours before running. Running with a heavy diet can cause issues.

Before running, warm up the body by doing some stretching or running slowly or just walk for 4-5 minutes.

After running

Never drink too much water or any other fluid-like juice/shake etc. while running and after running. Taking a little sip is okay if you feel very drying. Overdrinking can be dangerous and can lead to brain damage which means death. Having water at regular interval after 30 minutes of running to make your body hydrated.

While running

Prefer ground for running rather than hard roads. Always stretch your body before as well as after running. Always try to breathe through your nose instead of the mouth. Inhaling through the nostrils and exhaling through the mouth is also preferred.

The main purpose of running is S²– Speed and Stamina (endurance). You need both to win the race. Start with the just normal run or jogging. Then start increasing speed and difficulty levels continuously. In the starting week, just try to run at normal speed, don’t push yourself too much.

How to run in Rally?

Try to get in the front row and in the first batch. Start the race with just decent pace. Stay calm and avoid the crowd with you. Don’t panic. You know that you have done hard work and try your best. Most of the crowd will be weeded out till 3rd lap. In the final lap, increase your pace and give your best. Maintain your stability or balance while running in the rally, falling to the ground can cost you a lot.

Pull ups and push ups, not the regular ones

If you can get through the racing part, then you will definitely make it to the end. But, don’t underestimate other physical tests, especially the pull-ups. Just like running, pull ups and push ups also need regular practice, so make sure you practice them as well.

These pull ups/chin ups and push ups that you will have to do at the rally will be a bit different from your regular ones. You will have to raise up and come down when the instructor will tell you to. e.g if the instructor will say the word “up” then you will have to raise up and remain in that position until he says the word “down”.

And let me tell you that this method is a lot more difficult than the regular one, so prepare yourself accordingly.

Medical Test

It is very important to be in your best medical condition i.e. physically as well as mentally. Though there is not much that you can do, but still you should try to give your best. Medical is conducted mostly in this order over the next 4/5 days –

Day 1 – Blood test, Urine test, Chest x-ray, Ultrasound.
Day 2 – Ear, Nose & Tongue(ENT), Eye
Day 3 – Surgical Examination
Day 4 – Eye & Dental
Day 5 – General Medical(Height, weight, blood pressure, heartbeat) & Medical Conference

• Keep yourself tidy (neat and clean)
• Clean your ears
• Take care of your health: Take special care of your diet, try to avoid fast food as much as you can, and stay away from injuries.

Written Exam

The candidates usually qualify the physical and medical round but the written exam is one of the toughest rounds.  The difficulty level of the written exam will depend on the trade that you are giving exam for, e.g the difficulty level of technical is much higher than that of tradesmen. So, you should prepare for the written exam as per your trade.

Following are some tips that will make things a bit easy for you:-

• Regularity is everything: Regularity in studying will only make you stronger in your preparations each day, so make sure you study on the regular basis.
• Divide and study: Divide your syllabus according to different topics. Set the days according to your topics. For example, you can practice General knowledge on Mondays and Tuesday, and do the same thing to other subjects.
• Solve Practice papers: Try to solve the practice papers, sample papers, previous year question papers. It will help you to determine the exam pattern and also prepare you to face the exams. Don’t totally depend on these.
• Revision: Revision is the most important part. Do revision on weekend, whatever you study the whole week. You can also revise the topics you have learned the whole day.
• Make Important Notes: Prepare a separate notebook for important topics. don’t prepare long notes. These notes will also help you in revision.
• Read newspaper daily: Make a habit of the reading newspaper daily. It helps you to stay up to date, improve your general knowledge and make brain sharper.
• Points to Remeber while studying: Keep your mobile phone or such stuff away while you are studying. Always stay positive. Take a short break after every 40-45 minutes.
