    A friend of mine was in the marines for 8 years. He told me what this part was like. From what he said its even harder than in the video. Lads throwing up everywhere fainting etc. Lads were given extra press ups for scratching because of sweat. Many just walking off.

      Had a heat stroke last year so I need a dehydration test done so I was going to just do it because I know I don't typically suffer with heat stroke at all but I also have an absolutely shite history of migraines. The information my GP gave me to give to the medical officers, even though I don't get migraines anymore, it is far from showing I can handle them in a good light even though I am fully capable but I was a kid at the time so I figure a couple more years in it as my last one was only just over 2 years ago and I might be alright, no use attempting it now and risking PMU. Getting picked up on your medical SUCKS ASS. Especially when you know you can cut it but what sucks even more is thinking of something to do in the meantime, feeling like you are wasting your life on other meaningless bullshit when you put your heart and soul into training for the corps.

      At 28, you have advantages (mainly psychological) and disadvantages (mainly physical) compared with RM training at an earlier age. There was a 28 year old in my recruit troop in the 1970s and he passed. Great guy who steadied the younger guys like me and appreciated the encouragement from us on physical tests. Teamwork personified.

      @MajorRoadAhead Год назад +1

      @williambelford9661 I joined the RoyalMarines in 1961as a junior entry a few weeks after leaving school. At the recruiting office there was a maths test, and
      some chat from the recruiting staff. After a medical I received a letter with a
      date that I would be joining the R.M.s at the former Royal Marine's depot at
      Deal in Kent, 5/9/1961. No PRMC for me or my recruit squad mates.
      So it was 12 months at Deal followed by 6 months at CTCRM.
      After completing training I went on to serve 10 years, followed by 3 years
      on the reserve (which was part of the contract when I joined up).
      The only commitment on the reserve was just to make yourself available
      if the 3rd World War kicked off!!!

    Standards looks like they have slipped a bit since I did my prmc in 2014. We had to complete the return run in 10 mins, had to do 65 press ups and aim for 7 pull ups with a minimum of 4!

    Remember mine like it was yesterday, anybody wanting to do this make sure you train like fuck, being 16 and naive I didnt train for it I think i did one 4 mile run in preparation, what a shock I got, although I did pretty well in the end it was blisters of all things from the terrible boots that forced me to stop, was asked to return in 4months, no idea why but I never did, probably one of my biggest regrets, good luck to all who go for it

      Pull ups and then lots of leg training, squats, dead lifts and compound movements. Put on 10kg will take awhile but you can do it. Also on the run up to your medical take créatine and drink lots of water can easily hold an extra 4/5 kg in water weight if you you load it on with creatine

      Combine eating habits with physical exercise. Eat a lot. Eat breakfast every morning. Eggs, sausage, potatoes, spinach, etc. Eat lots of protein and snacks throughout the day. Combine this with physical exercise, both strength training and physical endurance. Get a good pair of running shoes, drink lots of water, stretch and then go for a three mile run. Push ups, pull ups, lift, etc.
      I'm a Hospital Corpsman in the U.S Navy (the British counterpart would be a medical assistant). We train and serve with U.S Marines. What I realized in my training was endurance outweighs how much you can lift. I've literally never benched in my life. I'm 155 lbs and I can fireman carry a 220 lb guy without a problem. The problem with a lot of soldiers and Marines is that they spend too much time lifting and improving their physique as oppose to running, bear crawling, low crawling or some other endurance workout. You can also grab a backpack and throw some books or something with some weight in there, and go for a jog. I know the Royal Marines do a 4 mile condition run with 30 pounds of gear. If you do this, make sure you have a good pair of running shoes.
      Drink lots of water. Training days I go throw 2 camel packs a day. Stretch, etc. Infantry life is rough on your body. You'll ache, you'll be wet, cold, tried, muddy, etc. But you'll love it anyway. You're always capable of more than you think. Mental strength is more important than anything else.
      Love to our brothers across the pond.

      I had the same problem, I was 5’11 but still light. I eat LOADS, trained hard in the gym with classic weightlifting (not messing about crossfitting etc) to help gain weight. However, there is no rush to join at 16, I did and regret it, better wait til you are 18/19, a bit world wiser and have time to get fitter too. By then, you should have gained a bit of mass too. Get yourself into college, get some a levels before you join. Again, there is no rush.
