Fitness Standards for 29 yo Provost Officer

Post by Baconhead »

Hi All,

I'm sure you have answered the following questions many times before but I would be very grateful if you coud help me out.

I understand the fitness tests in somecases are different for different ages - I am a 29 yo male going for Provost Officer Entry.

What would be the 'grades' needed on the Bleep? Also to train on the bleep I have an Australian version, which I presume must be similar, is it always run at a 25 metre distance? Can anyone tell me the time gap of the first level so I can make sure I have the right one?

Many Thanks

Not sure about the standards. But you can download the bleep test off the Royal Marines website for free (register your name in the fitness section). Then you lose the (annoying?) Australian accent!

Highly annoying - personally I think they should have Miss Moneypenny doing the voiceover

Thanks very much,

I did my first bleep today and got 10.2 so I reckon if I quit the old smokes and get cracking I'll be blue through and through.

As you seem to know, how would a blue/green mark affect selection?

Many Thanks

Also,

What do you think the chances of crossing over in to the RAF Reg if I excel at all stages? ( I am over the age limit)

Cheers

Hi,

I have considered the aux but I've really set my sights on full-time so will go with that...

I imagine that the Officers could get to train on the tactical provost teams and do the cp course? (In case it doesn't show I'm up for as much action as poss)


Cheers
