Anyone here who is joining the 21st can you please tell me what kind of training your doing, my routine at the moment is:
Monday= Just under 4 mile jog
Tuesday= Swimming (bad at it)
Wednesday= Just under 4 mile run
Thursday= Every other do some CT
Friday= Just under 4 mile, and every other a 7 mile run
Is this enough?

21st training
read the quiet soldier if u must but it wont help you its nearly 20 years out of date and selection has changed a lot and frankly its exagerated a big bit your best bet is to try a programme like this (from the uksf training team hand out)

mon BPFA (2 min press ups 2 min sit ups and 1.5 mile run keep record)
tue 20 min swim
wed rest
thursday 30 min steady run
fri circuit train 12 exercises 12 reps 3 times
sat rest
sun rest
(after 2-3 weeks add in a 2 hour walk over hills with day sack on sunday and increase run time each week by 5 mins till running an hour then do 1 run a week in boots)
weeks 13-25 build up programme
mon 40 min run 15lb

In response to rc ive been training for almost 2 months now, i think im pretty fit (compared to what i was which was bad), no previous and to answer the other questions would mean me breaking the law 
.
Sloth, thanks for the input very much appreciated, only problem is that i cant fit all those things into my schedual, at the moment im working as a full time labourer which takes enough out of me. Although i think ill try to work that into my schedual somehow, thanks for all the input again.
p.s thanks for the luck Howard
