The Physical

Today has been a rather good day, lazy but good as its my only one off work this week, so been doing lots of bits and bobs, washing cleaning the usual stuff, but got the Christmas tree and lights up now just need to get the snow spray out to complete the look but our house is finally caught up with the rest of the street as most of our row have something flashing in the window.

Also i've been suit hunting today as well for the interview, i have about £100 and seeing oceans 11 last night gave me some ideas, but i want a dam nice grey one like this, yeah i still don't know how to do videos or pictures yet, I'm getting there

Steel Super Skinny Suit

but this post is more for me, to keep track of everything, all the stuff Ive found out for the army is scattered over a lot of websites etc, especially all the physical fitness. speaking of which, mines improved a lot over the last month but its still not enough so this is from what i can do now to what i need to be able to.

first application Interview

Barb test (simple math and English, timed)
26 lowest score, infantry
60 for most jobs
60+ for all jobs, counts as above average, needed for the para's

First Stage

Everyone goes through this 2 day assessment, along with medical, icebreaker, memory test and final interview

1.5 mile run, in under 10.30 (14km hour) Para reg in under 9.40 (15.2 km)
my time: 1.5 10m (14km)

Jerry can carry, 150m
2m press ups, best effort
2m sit ups, best effort

Back and lift test, just to see if you can manage with carrying your own kit, the backpacks, gun etc

Team Challenges

Second Stage,
well its gets a bit hairy here, ill go onto do instead of basic training a para equivalent, but a lot of websites disagree and most are trying to sell crummy dvd's and are full of crap, so I'm going for the adsc fitness shizz first and ill find out more and update it soon

but for now, x factor at the gym
