For £40 that's a palace. Nice work Sam 👊🏾

[@MilitaryFitness]

Cheers mate💪🏻💪🏻

SLAM blocks...'single living accomodation modernisation'......prefabricated off-site like porta-cabins and then stuck together and a brick skin built around the whole. If you have ever lived in barrack rooms, 4 man rooms or even old school single rooms you'll know these new ones are pretty awesome by comparison...assuming the toilet works. There are communal kitchens and laundry as well....which you all pay for when some numpty smashes them up. Think they started to come in around 2007 so some maybe getting a bit battered by now but still light-years ahead of the old ones.....your own loo and shower? Gotta be a winner.

Brilliant insight mate. Cheers!

[@MilitaryFitness]

Thanks for the kind words buddy, have a great weekend

Yal'reet! Where was the standard years of limescale on the shower that takes weeks to get off with many failed room inspections! Oh yea I remembered you're a senior. Living good in that pad. At least I had a working bog XD

[@MilitaryFitness]

The toilet is a real nightmare

[@JavierUKWithCat]

looking forward to more fitness video and or Q&A😁🤣 how big usually is the married quarter? I know it deoends on the area though

[@MilitaryFitness]

They really do vary in size. I am going to do a quick video on it next week

[@thomasconc]

Aussie Army experience for me was initially the crappy 4 man cubicles, no aircon and we were in Townsville (feckin hot). Then one man rooms as we finished advanced Inf training & once they became available. It was the 80's and they were full of asbestos, no toilets or showers in them, at the end of the block. By the mid 1990's the one man rooms had no asbestos, a small dunny/shower arrangement and a bit of room to put a comfy chair & telly. In the modern era I hear the new rooms are similar to yours shown (I got out in 2002 so can't say for myself!).

[@MilitaryFitness]

The rooms are much better now but the new recruits still moan

[@thomasconc]

@@MilitaryFitness LOL it is the tradition of a private soldier to moan about everything...

[@MilitaryFitness]

[@noelfuh8153]

Wow 😲 this is very affordable, I pay about £150 per month for a room at uni here in South Africa and it's doesn't have most the things in the video. Thanks for the video

No probs buddy

Well at least it isn't roughin it eh Sam :) Nice Mac setup btw mate

[@MilitaryFitness]

Certainly isn’t roughing it, but the flush is still broken on the toilet 😂

[@stemartin6671]

20 days to get a working toilet mate, Jesus I'd be in bits 😂 But tbh it's better conditions than some of the houses I've lived in mate, and it's less cleaning up to do when all your rooms are basicslly the same room hahaha

[@MilitaryFitness]

That is so true 😂

[@CrohnsCast]

Have you rearranged the furniture to suit your needs? aka added a fridge etc moved your desk?

[@huwjoynson3171]

You and that bloody Gaviscon.

It’s a miracle cure

[@alexw7629]

I could certainly live with that, especially for £40

[@MilitaryFitness]

It could certainly be worse

[@DeVelopMENTALITYBloc]

Thanks for all you do Sir... Highly Appreciated Please I'm a Nigerian who already applied for the Regular Soldier Intake, 2023. I was told I have been put "on hold", as there are lots of Applications being reviewed and I would definitely be contacted. It's been over 2 Months and I would like to know the probability of being invited over to the UK for the Initial Assessment and please Sir, do you have any idea when I would most likely be called upon. Thank you for your time and consideration Sir

[@MilitaryFitness]

It’s taking a really long time lately. Be patient and they will contact you

[@DeVelopMENTALITYBloc]

@@MilitaryFitness Okay Thanks a Bunch Sir Lol just a bit jacked up and wanted to be sure I get called upon Thank you Sir

[@mikel6517]

I used to have 4 man accommodation in the 1980’s and at least the toilets were fixed quicker, perhaps no privacy but still good. That’s room didn’t look good.

[@markcallaghan8389]

same with me as signal man @ we had all meals cooked for us at a low cost, you could also have seconds

[@anthonybyrne2262]

£40/m? That is heavily subsidised. Same size flat where I live would probably cost £500/m lmao. How long do you need to be in the army before applying for the SLA/SFA accommodation?

[@MilitaryFitness]

You will room share in basic and phase 2 then go straight into your own room in your first posting

[@floisynyangau1188]
