Your training regimes sound quite intense, it is always a good idea to build in at least one rest day to allow your bodies to recover.

ditto... anyway... up til three years ago I worked in training wing at Honington (MoD after leaving the RAF) and I've seen a fair amount of PGAC courses go through... You shouldn't have too much problem as you're thinking the right way already... half the guys that can't manage PGAC fail on mental rather than physical fitness... playstation generation and all that !! Good luck with it !
