All good stuff Sam but there were loads of lads in my Troop who were fitter than me but never made it through. Physicality will get you to the start line but it's mental toughness and a capacity to take huge amounts of discomfort that gets you to the finish line! I took 2 x Recruit Troops through in the late 90s and it was the same then, lads who looked the part in the gym fell apart when they were cold, wet and tired in the Field and others who you'd never notice in PT sessions came to the fore. Get comfortable with being uncomfortable!

100% mate and thanks for sharing. Always appreciate your input on these videos. The last thing I said in the video was: “A 6 pack won’t get you through training but a strong resilient mind will”

When I joined the Corps the only selection course for the RM was called "the Commando Course", six weeks after I walked into the Glasgow Careers Office I was being Attested at CTC RM 🤔

@Mozzie7920 Год назад

Did you do any other sports/activities whilst getting fit for the marines? Finding it hard to handle the workload of adding on other stuff I want to do like boxing,Muay Thai, BJJ, climbing, etc

@britishmilitary6298 Год назад

If you watch some videos with the person speaking he did Boxing for about a year

@CompleteCommando Год назад

Yes I was boxing however if you are finding sports are getting in the way of specific training then put them on the sidelines!

@Mozzie7920 Год назад

@@britishmilitary6298 wasn’t sure if he did it prior to training or after sometime but thank you

@jd6069 Год назад

Great video as usual. Question though, I know two lads who both went into RM training and were kicked out for bad admin? How badly do I need to prep for it because they were both extremely fit and looked like they’d pass without a doubt.

@CompleteCommando Год назад

Yes mate fitness is a MASSIVE part of RM training but a clog in a big machine. Admin catches a lot of people out (including myself). It’s all about time management. Ironing and folding to the required standard sounds trivial but takes up the majority of your evenings in the early days.

@jd6069 Год назад

@@CompleteCommando thankyou mate do you recommend I start learning before hand or do u think I’d just pick up bad habits?

@CompleteCommando Год назад

@@jd6069 I’d only learn off a Royal Marine mate. But even watching those videos a few times over will give you base knowledge.

@stetomlinson3146 Год назад

What about classroom work? There is obviously a lot of that. Does that weed out unsuitable recruits?

@CompleteCommando Год назад

Map reading is the big one in this regard mate! Being sleep deprived, mega stressed and now having to learn military standard map reading can really take its toll. My advice is to get around the Royal Marines map reading videos on youtube before you go. On our prep weekends we spend a long time on map reading and navigation because of this.

@stetomlinson3146 Год назад

@@CompleteCommando I’m 67 in October, so as good as my map reading might be, I’ve been mountain and hill walking for 30 years, I think that might be the least of my problems! 😉😆 I’ve got a couple of mates who are former and serving Royals. but watching your, and other videos on recruit training for the Corps, I just wondered whether classroom learning took its toll. Thank you for your reply though and the work you put in.

all i want is to be a royal marine but i have glasses and i am worried i will be turned away beacuse of my vision, any way i can know if my sight is okay?

@davidross5525 Год назад

I went to my afco and raised the same concern. They gave me a form with the visual acuity levels. You can also look these up online. Then go to your opticians and ask them to work out what level you fit into.

@Appa21 Год назад

I passed out in 1989 i would advise anyone serious about joining if you can get to a Royal Marines Reserve join them fof a year if its for you then go regulars this will also help you get in good luck any questions just reply take care
