32. Just applied, looking forward to it! Sort of wish I had done it sooner but I guess, everything happens at the right timing of life! Cheers for your video, well informative! 👊🏼

[@MilitaryFitness]

Well done for applying and I wish you all the best

[@jackbutler7844]

31 here and just made an application myself. Good luck 👍🏼

I appreciate the tips and insights, it's been very helpful as I prepare for my assessment. I have a dental brace, could this exempt me from being enlisted?

Hey sam, to do combat engeneering. Do i need to first sign up for royal engeneering. So i need a qualification in engeneering right? I want to join after college currently studying engeneering L3.

[@MilitaryFitness]

You can get your qualifications whilst in the army. You don’t need to be an engineer to join the engineers

[@Utlathram80]

​@@MilitaryFitnessfab reply, cheers Sam thanks for the reassurance. As I was soon initially starting college this September I may actually try out and go for the combat engineering role instead. From what I heard I do a 14 week training course at the Royal military school of engineering. Would that then also give me a qualification to work as an engineer in the civilian world after?

[@tommcd6162]

Been thinking for a while about applying for officer selection, I've just turned 27 and had previously been scheduled to go to briefing. I know the age limit is 29 but I'm not sure if being at that limit will be a hinderance in going through the application/ briefing and main board. Any advice would be appreciated.

[@MilitaryFitness]

I would go for it as if you wait you will always be thinking about what could have been

@@MilitaryFitness what about the physical test requirements, what will they be asking for?

[@YorkshireNachteinbruch]

I’m worried about joining now, I tried to join in 2022 but my BMI was too low so I was deferred. Im worried about the draft if that happens and ww3 around the corner, also the army seems very woke now I’m very worried that I should try again

[@MilitaryFitness]

Just go for it.

[@lordmante8693]

Please can you list the physical training in the British army

[@MilitaryFitness]

I have a video on it, on my channel

Can you enlist in the British Army if you are an American? Do they offer age waivers?

[@MilitaryFitness]

You will have to have a british citizenship

[@ryanredmond5559]

Do u have any regrets with the army like not joining sooner or leaving and would u do it all again

[@MilitaryFitness]

I do not have any major regrets and I think I joined at exactly the right age for me (21). I would definitely do it all again.

hi Sam i have a question about the bmi test , i have a bmi of 31.1 and am trying to lower it as much as i can in a month and week i have until my assessment centre do you think i can head to basic training with this bmi? if i fail i will have to wait until march to do the assessment again and i really don't want to wait that long

[@MilitaryFitness]

You could be ok but be strict on your diet before hand though. It may not be a bad thing to wait until you feel physically ready to go though

[@bigmonke538]

@@MilitaryFitness its just a very long wait and i know if i train hard enough i can do all the other fitness tests its just my bmi that im mainly concerned over im 16 and just left school so i dont know what i would do for the 6 months wait other then work out

[@MilitaryFitness]

@@bigmonke538 well you can cross that bridge if they don’t accept you. You could just work in a supermarket while you wait

[@bigmonke538]

@@MilitaryFitness i just did the math and i would be losing around 8kg or 10kg in the 5 weeks i know i have if i work hard enough which can put me to 99kg or to 97kg and that would set me to a lower bmi of 29.9 would they accept me then ?
