A more accurate title: "Why you should train like the special forces" Anyway, I like the message, some things for me to think about.

You only get one body better treat that mf like a temple hellll yea great video dude🤟

Is Tosh McDonald still around, would love to meet up again!

I tell you in India most of the men who the military are guys from the countryside mostly farmers sons as of you and most of the men in sf or specialised units are the countryside guys

Excellent video! Everyone should watch this. I don’t have a military background but have been competing in sports since childhood (rugby, martial arts) in my early 30s after numerous injuries I started to focus more on endurance than strength training and eventually combined the 2. In my 40s I completed 1 Ironman per year for 6 consecutive years without injury and at the age of 50 I was fitter than I’d ever been and felt invincible. Every aspect of my life was enhanced- just like Nick says I could join in and enjoy life. Then covid hit and races were cancelled, work became intense and I stopped training. My life was changed for the worse. I put on over 20kgs weight and lost muscle and endurance. But I’m back and starting to find my old self again under the fat! The most important thing? My mental health is so much better! Thanks Nick, keep up the good work.

I thought that it would be important to hide your face/identity in this line of work. Anyways, I'm here to learn different ways to work out.

If u train seriously at a young age 11 like me u might get knee/back problems.. please if u know anybody like this stop them

What an epic adventure. Only a Bootneck would start flirting in a kidnapping situation.

And also what was the beautiful painfully training that one could possibly painfully achieve the physique and what food that makes a person pray for some other food

This is super cluckbait and completely unnecessary. Yes the Mountain Leader course is very tough but it certainly isn't better than special forces. It is obviously very high profile but the SAS have a Mountain Troop, Air Troop, Boat Troop and Mobilty Troop and they can do whatever the Mountain Leader folks can do. Remember the Mountain Leader course is 8 weeks and the Initial part of SAS/SBS selection is 6 months to start with. It is very similar to the Paras where some can volunteer to become a Pathfinder(yes they can come from other regiments too).

Great video. Recovering from major surgery and this has kept me forward thinking. Thank you Natural Edge.

For anyone visiting, who is frustrated at the needless obscurity that OP has to putting it in the title, or description, or that everyone has in the comments to referring to "ML" instead of using actual words, THE UNIT IS CALLED "MOUNTAIN LEADER", a branch of the Royal Marines. Also ridiculous to say they are "better than special forces". At what? Be specific. Put a Royal Marine Mountain Leader in a hostage rescue inside a terrorist camp in the jungle or on a plane, versus a Special Forces solder, and they are not better. Put a Royal Marine Mountain Leader on assaulting a cliff or mountain, or holding a landing zone to get the Special Forces on land on said cliff or mountain, and they probably are better. The units are different and for different things. Special Forces are more diversely trained and have a broader selection of mission types they would be suitable for. So the title is just standard "This unit is better than that unit" hyperbole that fills comments on such videos. It's just needless clickbait. Be more specific and clear.

Likes anything my Dad said to ex para and me ex marine for 25 yrs he said to get good at something do it , ie press ups do plentiful lol , jungle for 5 wks honking x

SRR No1!

Did you ever kill anyone during your period of serving?

BZ’s Royal. I’m leaving the RN in 2 weeks after 38 years. Clueless about what to do shipmate!!

did u do the surgery for your pec or not ?

Looking back on this KZbin video nearly 12 months later it’s come to attention and I don’t know why I didn’t realise it at the time, Commando’s from both the Army and Royal Marines as well as the Special Service Brigade whom my Late Grandfather was part of have not been given the gratitude that they deserve from WW2 , I’m not disputing what the SAS & SRS did but the Commando’s were doing that years before them and when amfibus landing’s took place it was Commando’s who had started doing this from the start of Commando operations in Norway in 1940/1941 in Varsgo after the ill fated Channel Islands raid. As a Grandson of a decorated Commando They get all the accolades from me !!!!!!!!!

Those pall killers made you work like a machine because on painkillers you can't feel the burn from the lactic acid in the muscles, big advantage!

You mean B (Richard Sharpe) company, Royal Green Jackets. Legends (in their own mind)

“What would Nims do?” Is mine 👍🏼

As soon as I saw the title i was thinking Mountain Leaders 👌🏼

@3:44 takes patriotism🤨

Want to train for special forces? Run, swim, and body weight training. Warfare is cardio.

The most gnarliest physique this guy have

Do u think UFC fighters could easily pass the special forces selections ?? Like, most of them ?

Hi mate do 23 do the same?

Am 14 years old bouta try out on Philippines army idk anything about it but i wanna be a sniper i think my father said i need to do the basics and enter the special force like him
