If I was you(and I was when I started I could only do 22) I would start off with the 100 press-up program, get used to your bodyweight as it is at the moment. I then moved on to doing 8 sets of 25 reps every two days e.g. 25 press-ups then straight away 50 sit-ups then 25 press-ups etc. You get to r...

Yeah its a long wait but im just temp working to pay the bills and training in between to keep fit, thats what I was told so don't take it as gospel. I've heard that many dates that i've resigned myself to the fact that my date will arrive when im told by my recruiter. Last thing you guys want to do...

All your training is conducted at catterick and last for 28 weeks, we then go on nijmegen company where we carry out our ceremonial duties which I have been told can last from 6 to 12 months. Put a bit more effort into looking for what you need mate.

Yeah mate im going to, I got told today that im not looking to get into training for the Grenadier Guards until October even when I passed selection with a grade B. So plenty of time for rest.

Yeah I totally agree with you matey, I have had from wednesday of this week off from a similar training program just to eat well and rest, just to prepare for this training program, but I make sure that I have one full rest day a week and make sure I don't run everyday. Also if im honest I do really...

Ok lads and lasses basically I know our main emphasis is on how many push-ups, sit-ups and all round bodyweight exercises we can bang out. However i've been attending a class twice a week at my gym called Push and lift, which is basically a class that focuses on biceps,triceps,shoulders,chest,upper/...

Cheers for the advice matey, I bought it more for its nutritional tips and just how to put together a good training program, I got it today and have finished reading it and I agree I probably could have got the knowledge for free, although now i've got it and used it to put together a training progr...

Cheers for the reference i'll definately have a look into it.

cheers matey, does it have nutritional information in it aswell as phys information?

Have any of you lads used this training manual- http://www.amazon.co.uk/exec/obidos/ASIN/1844255611/ref=ox_ya_oh_product. I just wanted to know if it was worth buying for the routines it has in it, and also the author is ex- RM PTI so I expect it to be top quality phys. Just wanted to know anyones v...

I wanted to know if it would benefit me more running 3 days on road one of these being a hill training session, a 5 mile run and a 6 mile run. Then doing 3 days cross country training and following the same pattern as the road? I was told that cross country running is much different to road running ...

Mate try circuit training, if you have a local liesure centre they may do it as a class. I do it and its a beast the bloke smashes us in the circuit for example this week we did spiderman press-ups(60 seconds for all), burpees, lunges w/ twist, power squats, squat raises, striders, tri-cep dips, jac...

Have any of you blokes or lasses ever used sandbags during training? They seem to be good for circuit training and cheap, I just wanted to know before I use them, because what I have been reading is that they can be used to improve overall strength and conditioning, just wanted to know what others o...

Would using an exercise ball and a medicine ball in circuit training help me make gains in both sit-ups and press ups. Are these pieces of equipment beneficial? Last week I carried out the following: Monday –8.53 mile run and push and lift Tuesday – Swimming (1 mile) Wednesday – Run 5.35 miles easy(...
