Hi mate,

I trained for PRMC for about 5 months, but that was because I was really unfit before (I had just came out of hospital).

I haven't got a entry date yet as this injury is still doing my head in! Been 5 months injured now. I've got it sorted with my AFCO that when I am fit, I will go in on the next one (that is available)

alrate lads, good luk to y'all on prmc! i got my interview put on pause in feb due to my fitness bein slighlty under after telling the AFCO dude that id been training for 2 months but hadnt played any soccer or sport since high school, which of course made his mind up ( endurance/stamina ) for me to go on a 3 month training plan. Im 20 now and its been 3 months and iv got my updated interview on the 24th of this month. My scores are : 3 mile = 20.49, 1.5 mile = 9.29, 72 lengths breast stoke (20m a length), pull ups =12.
As for press/sit ups iv been doin circuits but got told off afco to start timing 2 mins and see wot i get. Im gutted as i only seem to be gettin 35 pressups and 45 situps, any ideas lol shockin i know :( yet my pull ups rock :S

also iv been told ill be goin birmingham for a days training before prmc :S

sandaz, you just need to do them regularly. My pressups were pretty crap (40 max) before my last PRMC so three weeks before i just did 20 every hour of the day that i was awake, i think i over did it a bit to be honest because a couple of days after i started my arms were in too much pain lol.

Anyway this seemed to work because at PRMC i did 52 pressups, that was obviously after the bleep test aswell. Doesn't really matter anyway whatever your doing currently isnt working so just try out different things :D

Aye, it's bloody frustrating :P

Got all this way then get injured AFTER passing PRMC. Bloody crap!

Sorry to hear that lilsuvv. So with 11 days to go I'm starting to get nervous now, my shins are sore, shoulder is achy and I’ve got a bad cough :roll:. All fun and games aye.

Are there anymore forum members lurking in the shadowy underbelly of the coms forums who will be coming for the thrashing of a lifetime?

Lew, I'm pretty sure not a single member of MF has passed out as an original since I joined last September...good luck matey :wink: Someone's got to manage it sooner or later...I think either Dan or Danny (or maybe both) made it as originals? Let us know when you're coming down and I'll buy you a pint.
