Individual Obstacles are the subject of discussion among the candidates who go for ISSB. It is considered as one of the most challenging parts of ISSB since many candidates are not aware of nor are they physically fit like a sportsman.
What is ISSB Individual Obstacles? ISSB Individual Obstacles consists of 9 different hurdles in the ground, which a candidate has to pass to be eligible for ISSB. These hurdles are of different types that use the capacity and energy of almost all body muscles. This is carried out to assess the physical capability of the candidate, his stamina and will power to complete the tasks.
Before performing the ISSB Obstacles, the GTO shows the candidate a video on the multimedia about how to pass each obstacle in the right fashion.📷Candidates are required to complete 9 individual hurdles in two minutes. Most candidates are not able to complete all nine hurdles and they reach only six or seven hurdles when the time is up. One can repeat the obstacle if one has completed all nine hurdles. Then you can repeat any hurdle.

However, if the GTO asks you to complete any obstacle, follow his instructions as well.In ISSB Individual Obstacles, you may or may not complete all of the obstacles.
Basically, your will power, control on fear, and stamina are checked in this task. It is also checked whether a difficult obstacle is acceptable to the candidate. The best thing here is Rashid Minhas completed only 1 hurdle while Hafeez Bhatti made a record of completing all nine hurdles twice in two minutes. This implies that you don’t have to pass a certain number of hurdles, just give a 100%.
