Drop Tom Cruise? That's got to be even more difficult than sinking an aircraft carier. Look at what he does in Mission Impossible. Combine that with what he does in The Last Samurai. That man is a killing machine.

I went down to the Ginkel Heath (where they do the jump each year) yesterday and it was absolutely marvelous. Indeed, hats off the veterans who did their jump again, not sure everyone of them would agree it was their final one though! Went to the cemetery afterwards and that's always a place that br...

I went out for a swim yesterday for the first time in years, I was a fairly strong swimmer in my early teens. Does anyone know a decent swim workout? Right now I just go out and swim for 40 mins which is alright, but probably not very effective.

Yeah, could be. I do regular sit-ups every now and then as well, because that's what they'll test you with. I also do leg raises sometimes, to train the lower abs.

I do the same thing, except I pull my knees to my chest at the same time (creating a scissor-like movement). Not sure what that's called though.
