make... them... harder... :o What are you trying to do! :D To be honest plyometrics are overlooked a lot of the time, spot on for building explosive power that you need for all the sprinting you do or powering yourself over the six foot wall etc See how much interest this draws if not the 3 of us c...

Dude, seriously, don't go for muppet. If you want to be a diver then at your stage of the game you need to do it now, they wouldn't even let you think about sidewards entry into the diving branch until you have served 3 or 4 years as a muppet. Don't let them talk you into doing a job you don't want...

Hello all, (just registered) I know its a little old now (sorry), but coincidently, I asked exactly the same Q on Mili Forums. I got the same answers but nobody was completely sure if age would be a problem regarding tranfering from RMR to regs. The general feeling was that it wouldnt be, as long as...

regs or RMR?

I've been PM'd by "Chester" recently who has given me a lot of help so far, but i'm wondering if anyone else can contribute / confirm. If I join RMR, (and pass out) would I possibly be able to go regs in future if I decided to do so?. (remember I'm soon to be 33yrs.) Thank's again Chester ...

age

I'd of thought 25 was probably an ideal age to join mate. I'm almost 33 and thinking like you. One thing to bare in mind though, is that a lot of the younger recruits will probably want to lean on you during training, wich will probably add to the pressure. Anyway, I'd just go for it if I was you, b...

regs or RMR?

cheers everyone Common sense tells me to go for RMR at this point, but I cant help feeling that I will maybe one day wish I had joined the regs when I had the chance, esp if I really enjoy it. The other concern is that my current job is absolute cack (I hate it). 3 and a bit years on a casual contra...
