If you say so bud

@KyleSmithFIT no I say get some mates or a bird u wet wipe

Thanks, will do!

Cheers bud much appreciated 👊

No mate, I joined cause I needed to do some constructive and something that was going to sort me out and get me on the straight and narrow. The enjoyment for the army came naturally as I went through training

Mate you gotta do what’s right for you, if you didn’t like it you didn’t like. Joining the parachute regiment is very very difficult, it’s an acquired taste in terms of how they treat you through training and at your unit, it not easy for them first few years. You may have joined a different role more you may not have, as long as your happy with what your doing now bud I don’t think it matters. Keep doing you 👊

I do live streams every week mate, on a weekend I will be put a time out over the coming days

Erm, study I guess mate not a lot else you can do. Why don’t you start the process see how you get on and if you fail go away and study so you can pass

@KyleSmithFIT I can't continue study anymore I left school in my 9th grade now I'm 18 years old, If I wanna join the Infantry I don't need to have any formal qualifications!?

New balance fuel cell V4, really good for tempo work as they are light as a feather but they also have really good cushion so I don’t mind wearing them on easy runs

I would say yes then, if your not worried about being away from home due to responsibilities etc, then go for it

Train for it but don’t be to hard on yourself if you don’t get the time you want it’s very busy and can be hard to get moving at the paces you want, constantly weaving in and out of people. Get there early so you can use the toilet and get in to your pen, again it’s very busy. It’s just a good class event in my opinion, just enjoy it

@ cheers mate haha I’ll be a bag of nerves like yeah a lot of people are saying don’t go for a time as it’s my first one I know it starts at 11 but I still watched people coming through the start line at 1

@ if it’s your first half marathon, obviously push yourself but just try to enjoy it. Get your time then make a plan to improve is what I would say.

@@KyleSmithFIT thank you mate I’m thinking around 2 hours and a half I can do 6 mile at a hour at the minute and only been running since January last year

@ yeah mate, if your consistent between now and then you could probably go for quicker. There is plenty of time

Coming soon! 👊

I can’t sorry, haven’t got a clue how it works unfortunately.

Cheer pal, hope your well.

Good stuff mate, keep it going. 4 months of solid work on the diet and fitness you’ll be in a good spot 👊

Probably not mate, they might just check your iron levels see why they are low.

@ thank youuu love the content, i was previously at mpct croydon so definitely relate to the content

@ thanks 👊👊

Depends on how many incidents are on your medical documents they take every case on a case by case basis so it’s hard to say they will or they won’t. Sorry can’t really give you a yes or no on this one mate. Fingers crossed 🤞

Good stuff mate cheers for the insight 👍

10 minute warm up (steady jog) 400 meters at 7:30 minute per mile. (Aim to do 400 meters in 1 minute and 53 seconds) then jog 200 meters to recover, slowly. Repeat this 4 times Then cooldown, 10 minute slow jog/walk

@ nice one thank you

Long runs, slow steady at a pace wheee you can hold a conversation when running. If you can’t do that use the run walk method (run till you can’t run no more then walk, then run again). Body weight exercises, just do them every day, keep practicing and build it up. Maybe start with 3x 10reps of press up, squats, burpees and sit ups. Once you can do that do 3x20reps, the 3x30 reps etc. Turn up every day put some work in and you will see progress, it’s more about consistency and commitment than anything else.

Good stuff 👊

Add speed and interval sessions to your plan. Just do a quick KZbin or google search you should be able to find something. Probably would not need to do anything over 6 miles, short, sweet and fast 👌

Hello mate, Firstly if you have a degree i would definitely recommend exploring joining as an officer. In my opinion just better chance of firstly making more money and climbing the ranks in a quicker time. When you go to leave the military and are looking at possible jobs, having been a officer in the military goes a long way. 1. yes it is definitely possible, hard work but possible. 2. I can't speak for the Navy too much, but it depends what you would like to do i guess, submariner ? very good money and lots of good trades available, royal marines ? Great unit, probably one of the best in the military. Lots of great opportunities. You will have to see what you would like to do and take a chance with a role, speak with your recruiter also they will be able to help. 3. Yes the Army has lots to offer also, REME officer, working on apache's etc.. or Royal engineers are going if you fancy doing mechanical. 4. Get yourself to your local recruitment centre, they will be able to go in depth over all the roles, they will give you some stuff to think about and give you advice on which you are most likely to get in. Hope this helps bud, good luck.

@ thank you very much, will get down to a recruiter 🤝

Cheers pal, good luck 👊

On what date, 15th?

cheers mate 👊

Glad you enjoyed it! 👊

Yesss!!! Love that. Cheers pal 🫡

👊

Yes mate as long as you got the UCAS your good. There are a lot of other skills that are required which make it difficult to get through the application process

@@KyleSmithFIT Thanks a lot brother!

Probably not, would love to but it’s pretty hard to get a ticket. Probably be something further north.

No there is cubicles 👍

Nice to see you back as well

Cheers bud, definitely doable mate. I would say atleast get 3-4 runs in before the your assessment date, practise the bell test again. But at the end of the day it’s not too far away so your probably not gonna be able to improve fitness that much, it’s gonna be a case of hanging in there on the date and grafting your arse off, hopefully the pressure will spur you on when your up there. Good luck 🫡

@@KyleSmithFIT thank you mate I appreciate the advice

i guess you apply through the british army website as a commonwealth entry.

i would say join 216 Signal squadron probably the best advice i can give but they are a regular unit, maybe speak with your recruiter see what they advice

Maybe, i would have buddy. Just not my cup of tea though. Cheers for the input 👊

Keep working, good solid month of training you could easy get to 7-8
