word of advice mate about your apptitude tests, im going for rmr but there were a few regular lads in my testing session on monday and its the same test for everyone. Its not really a test of intelligence more your ability to think quickly under pressure, you have very little time to complete each ...

i have just attended the RMR london evening presentation and now have the forms to start the application process as the selection weekend in on the 26th of september they wanted to rush through our applications ready for then and so gave us the forms there and then without us having to attend ...

because when i consulted my local AFCO they were very unsure, he said he thought 16 was the joining age and advised me to attend the presentation evening at RMR london and find out then which i intend to do but i just wondered if anyone had any solid answer because there seems to me to be total ...

Hi
im 16 years old (17 in december) and im looking to join the royal marines reserves right now, i know this is on the wrong forum but the reserve one seems pretty dead to me and i was looking for a quick answer. Does anyone know for certain the minumum joining age, i have read you can join from the ...

hi
i@m the same age as you and i have been training for about a year an a half, around the end of the summer my fitness had started to plateau, because training on your own is difficult and pushing yourself no matter how disciplined is next to impossible so i decided to stop training for long ...

Hi guys
well this is a pretty long story but I'm going to tell it all from the start, in August I decided to give up endurance training in preparation for joining the reserves next year and decided to take up sprinting (400m).

Anyway I've been doing that since about half way through July not doing ...

hollos how do you know the detaining force were not heavily armed elite soldiers? im not sayin they were but we do not know. however i accept that the royal navy sailors acted very unprofessionally in selling their stories but the 3 or 4 royal marines captured did not and just returned back 2 their ...

i know this should be on the rmr forum but thats pretty dead! im in year 11 right now and want to join the reserves once ive finished my gcse's in may (or at least start application process) but i read on the royal marine website that on joining you cannot be in full-time education, i was hoping to ...

i got 14.7 at the sports centre around 2 months ago. i find the best workout for improving my bleep test score is sprinting around a football pitch with 1 minute rest between each lap, start off with 5 reps and add 1 each week, when you reach around 15 start to cut the rest down.

yea i heard about that somwhere else and tried it, was definatley a killer but didnt really like it. burpees are very tough though!!!!!!!!

alright calm down! they do had a use actully, aslong as you keep the arm you are doing them on close to your rib cage it will build strength in the triceps which are used in marine press ups and my max amount of reps without stopping has increased from 31 to 40 without doing any other training so ...

i finally mastered the art of these lil buggers couple of days ago now i can bang out 11! balance is the key and the opposite leg to the arm being used must be WIDE! i suggest anyone who is struggling wid these to do 2 maximum set on each arm about 3 times a day monday to friday the rest on the ...

thanks but i personally think it is easier for someone my age to get good fitness scores as long as they have been training because a- younger people are always active, doing something because of school especially boys who are always playing football
and b- we have about 3-4 hours of pe every week ...
