Id not say, your not training 'enough' but at first glance Id be worried that what you were doing seemed a bit 'samey same'. The intensity of your training needs to vary so that it doesnt become too much of a routine and you are pushing your body hard. For example when I was a young lad putting myse...

His response was (knowing Id done it with 4Para) 'You gotta do it all again har har har'. I have also been told by a mate that it still is the same. Prior t...
