Hello Kyle, could you give me some help mate? I have my assessment centre on the 15th of January and I’ve only practiced the beep test 3 times, from 5.6 to 7.4. I need to get 8.7, do you think this would doable in such a short amount of time and do you have any tips on what I should do?

I'm Canadian but I would be interested in enrolling as a musician in the British Army/Navy how does that work ?

What about a role that is both technical but also a bit physical. I want to do the paratrooper role, but I study computer science, so I feel like I should be doing something technical to get myself some IT experience. But is there something that gets me the best of both worlds? I want to join the reserves btw

I have found Army Reservists a lot more enthusiastic about their training as they have volunteered to be there. For a lot of Reservists, it double hats as a part time job and an interest or hobby. Some regs I have come across lack enthusiasm when it comes to training as they no choice but to be there as it's their job. There are good and bad soldiers in the regs and reserves alike and to brand all reservists lacking the skills to do the job is simply not true. Maybe if you would have stayed a bit longer in the reserves after you transfered from the regs, then maybe you would have had a fair chance to truly witness the dedication, enthusiasm and valued skills that reservists bring to todays modern armed forces of this country.

How big of a moustache do I need to join as a general? And do I need to curl it or will a regular carpet salesman do the trick?

Starting to train got a 4.4 gutted

Royal Engineers, you will do multiple skills regardless of what trade you do. Also would be on a higher pay band

U have to remember to add how it starts ur selection run time on 1.5m preferably 8:30 / 9m then P.R.A.C 4 Day assesment course predict if u get here also

In the beginning of september I fastwalked/jogged 2 km in 17 min. 30 sec. I weighed 119 kg then. Today I weighed in at 113 kg. I have reduced cola/chocolade/french fries intake.. I have been fastwalking/jogging/lifting weights 2-3 times per week One day, before february, I will try the 2 km again..

Hi Jack, could I get some help with to my army medical appeal? I have Myclonic Epilepsy and I think it’s unlikely I’ll get accepted

Hey mate, Guessing this would be a similar process for the RAF? I’m interested in both and I’m in this situation, got rejected by the army for back pain (that I’m working on with a physio) and mental health condition that I don’t have and was incorrectly written up. but I figured I will sort out the issues, get cleared up by the doc and get my records straight *before* applying to the RAF and I should be good to go. And if I wanna go army I can appeal with that evidence? Btw, these videos are a godsend. I don’t know anyone in the forces or any help, so it really helps to have this.

Is soldier and infantry same thing just being regular soldier a real thing

Poor lad life is tough for him ffs catch a grip

But the car emissions are okay ?

If anyone’s looking for a good gym in Kent I would recommend serida fitness gym, they’ve got the best equipment, amazing showers and great people around you

Joined 4. Para just after the.falklands 😅

is there anything I should be doing and practicing before I do join, other than training physically. If you could let me know I would really appriciate it!

Respect brother, that’s discipline!

Looking in a role for Comms/ Electronics - have no previous experience, got a degree in Sport Science and worked in logistics (25) - what do you think I should go for in the BA? Thank you

That’s bloody good heart rate.

If you fail the weapons handling test after 3 attempts, what happens next.

I’m just worried about injury, i started training this year 30th June for paratroopers, I’ve come so far, I’ve already had Plantar Faciitis, which I found a fix for, kind of mitigated that from ever happening now, but just a few weeks before my assessment now 10th December, I made a silly mistake and did two long runs in a very short period of time, just two 10 milers, too fast, and I’ve given my right leg, my weaker leg, a shin splint type of pain.. I had to take a week off of running, I think I took 8 days off of running, and I just started running again now, there’s still time, but I feel like my fitness has taken a nose dive, just from having 1 bloody week off. I felt like the hulk in terms of running before this, invincible.. don’t feel that way now right before my assessment.

Might be a stupid really dumb question - if you know you are not fit, do you go ahead with joining. is it beneficial to have the army advice during recruitment to go away and get fit, is there help from them? will they turn you away instantly and tell u what u need to come back?

Good one

Difference? One works for a living ;)

My tip number 1: There’s no easy way out. It sounds simply stupid but you do need to regularly go out for a run, at least 3 times a week every single week without missing a run, all year round. Always aim to run a lot further than you would do on the bleep test. If you regularly run several km’s or 10 km, then I promise you the bleep test will feel like a warm up. You’d get very little training benefit from only running 2.4km. The people I know who struggle on the bleep test never do any cardio training, while runners always find it easy. It can take a while for your body to get used to running, so don’t think you can do the bare minimum a couple of weeks before the test. If you’re very fit you also feel more confident about passing and don’t have the worry. Tip number 2: Do the bleep test with a mate who you can have a bit of friendly competition with and match his pace. Don’t stop until he stops. It’s a good motivator. Tip 3: Interval training is good for improving pace and for those who are new to running and struggle. You can either do interval training on a treadmill with a stop watch or using the distance or do interval training on an outdoor running track using the markings.

Do you have any information about height requirements within the army? What height for certain jobs?

Kyle, are you still working for MPCT?

We ARE back, not we back

Is doing weighted runs good for army prep

I failed the online medical questionnaire but it hasn’t told me why i have failed

Thanks Kyle much appreciated

hello kyle i applied from Commonwealth,i did my cognitive via online ..will do it again at the assessment?

Hi I just had my optometrist report rejected because my eyesight is outside of the army’s eyesight requirement on the grounds of ESE being greater than -5 or 6.004. But my eyesight correction states I have 20/20 vision but I’m literally 1 point over the limit. Otherwise I’m physically fit and able to meet the training requirements as for the role I’m aiming for the REME as a fabricator. I really don’t see how the fact I have to wear glasses and my ESE is only 1 point over the limit I’m being rejected considering if someone joined with a similar problem but say they just fit within the limits they would get in even though if you take there glasses off the would be just as visually impaired as myself

My two bobs. Only join FT if you going to get training that will benefit you in the civie world. If going combat, at first will be exciting but then you get into a routine. You don't fire the guns as much as you think and if you leave, apart from some soft skills/leadership skills, what else have you got to offer an employer. Join reserves if looking at a combat/adventure role whilst also working on your civilian career. Time management is key and you will learn great discipline to handle both jobs, which employers love. Also remember once in FT, they own you. You hate your boss, tough titties. Reserves you have a bit more control on the a-holes you work with.

i'm trying to complete all challenges and assessments so i can hopefully get into the Greater Manchester Fire & Rescue Service next year when i turn 18, amazing video thanks!

Try 4 parra reserves if you want to solider part time

Hi Four months ago i got diagnosed with Irritable bowel syndrome , but i was not given any medication. Will i get rejection.

I heard that you have to stay still until your family comes to you. Im an orphan so how does that work? No family or friends

hey im in the process of my medical notes being viewed. They will probably be denied because first off I'm diagnosed with autism and adhd, but when I got diagnosed I went to the doctors with my mum and she has munchausens and basically she had me go to the doctors and act up and lie to them and gave me money in return, I was only young so I didnt see anything wrong witb it. So i got diagnosed with theses things at a young age and i honestly don't think i have them. If i get denied for them what would be the best course of action is there anyone in the army medical team i can tell about what my mum made me do (just to say she made me do it to be able to claim child's disability so she didn't have to work) I don't remember what she would have told me to do for the autism one because i was very very young but when i got diagnosed with adhd she told me smash the docters room up and she will buy me a ps4 I smashed the room up got diagnosed and got a ps4 but now being 18 I see how abusive that was but these things are still down on record plus additional things shes made up but im not sure whether they have been recorded or if the army would be able to see them. I really don't know what to do because I'm set on joining infantry but don't know where to start with undoing all the stuff shes messed up. Any help would be so appreciated. Thanks

I got rejected today due to history of migraines, ive been off medication for a while now but its saying i cannot join until 07/2026 because i have to be 2 years free of migraines and off migraines medication, i know i have had migraines in the past but two years is excessive is there any worth appealing it to get the term shortened? Or it wont work like that? Just asking for advice please

I really want to join the army , but I just have to process my passport🔥🔥

Great video, with really useful advice. I'm 24 looking to join up, specially military intelligence. I currently complete 3-4 3km run a week, 4x 50, push ups, sit ups, mountain climbers, burpees a week and work lifting heavy weights in a warehouse 40hrs a week and religious listen to current affairs. My question is what would you recommend to even more improve myself to give myself a better shot during assessment and more importantly if i get to basic to be able to thrive rather then struggle.

Is there a combination of both infantry and cyber engineering

Just subscribed, looking to join the reserves and getting fit abd shedding the lbs , thank you for your vids

Anyone going to Pirbright assessment centre on 28th?

I learned so much from the ACF aged 13-18. Working with SAS 1 to 2 aged 16 was a delight on close target reccies.❤

Hello, thank you for the video, I wanted to ask I haven't been to my GP for a while now, and I contacted them, and I need to show them a physical copy of my application. How would I print out my application in order to show them and then move on to the next process.
