- Hiya guys, hope you enjoy the video. This is something I feel strongly about. The tests to get in need updating!
I'd love to hear your thoughts in the comments.

Thanks for watching
44 minutes 10k is pretty rapid, keeping in mind lots of lads even at ROP cant run a sub 22 5k
That’s very fast 😂
I Appreciate the help you're giving people, even if it doesn't reach massive audience, you're still helping lads like me who are sort of lost on how to build that foundation to become a Royal Marine. Cheers
👌
I appreciate your vídeos thank You from your help
I like your approach but that standard wasnt even required for the briefing course at sennybridge. I would say 5k sub 24mins is tasty enough for potential rm’s. Or maybe do something similar with fire service. 6.3km pace. 3% incline increasing 3% every 2mins for 12mins. But add maybe a 10kg sack
I don't think the 10k is necessary as you now have to do the endurance course during you CPC (5days) which is a determination test within itself.
Good advice to be hitting these marks before you try out though 💪🏻
should replace sit ups with planks or hanging knee raises
Yeah if you want to drop the standards, which is exactly what will happen. There in place for a reason. If recruits can’t make it then do something before week 1 training
Dont think the fitness test is the subject of debate in a core which is failing to meet recruitment goals
What would happen if you failed one of your 4 commando tests at the end of training, would you be back trooped?
Rerun it on Friday after the 30 miler and if you fail again backtrooped
Never seen a video say 22 seconds before
Edit:
I feel like the music should either be quieter or not there
Big fan this
Good stuff but the 10km is not necessary. That’s what ROP is for
Having recently completed ROP myself, the fitness sessions in ROP aren't challenging at all- they're designed to prevent overtraining and 'de train' you ready to begin smashing you in mainstream
@@braderslooloohave you changed your training since completing ROP or just maintaining it now ?
Problem with these tests is you’ll have way less people through the door and into training
And I think 44 minutes 10k is ridiculous tbh
@@seancassidy9704insane pace that is for 44 mins, 4.25m/k
Yeah but then the drop out rate is less
Point is that if you filter out the people that can’t do the training then you’ll walk in with more people who won’t drop out, that means less people will get injured and the people who can’t do it will not have there time wasted on something they can’t or don’t want to do
@@jackdaugaard-hansen4512 I know that but 44 min 10k is too fast imo.
