‘As long as they’re not terrorists you’ll be fine’ I’m dead 🤣🤣 and you trying not to laugh made me laugh more 😂
Haha!
Was looking for this comment. Made me larf
Thinking of joining up in March 2021
And I’ve just reached level 11 on the bleep test
Well done mate. I challenge you to get that up to level 13 by the end of the year 💪
Sam Logan Fitness I’ll let you know how I do
@@rapidlips5757 How you getting on?
@@CompleteCommando dropped down to ten but I’ve been doing the bleep test for a week straight once a day to get it back up
I'm a U.S Navy Corpsman (medic) and did my tour with U.S Marines. I wish I could join the Royal Marines, lol.
Legend bro
Hi mate, can you cover what life’s like in the reserves? Pros, cons and cover the training?
Yer sure mate 👍
Another good source is on the forums: www.royalmarines.uk/threads/rmr-advantages-disadvantages.35600/
Done mate check the video out
Thanks this was very helpful mate
Thanks for the feedback Jude 👍
Great video. Cheers.
Cheers mate
Great vid, thanks for sharing
Fantastic Tony Blair for Labour manifesto and thankyou Royal Marine Commandos and be the best ✔
Great vid, very informative👍
Thanks mate
You've got to take ya hat off to the Royal Marines watching them on BBC different breed
thanks mate
The question you need to ask yourself is WHY you want to join the Corps. It's not a fitness club you are there to be turned into a commando, to soldier, fight, kill people. You have to have the right mindset when/If you join up, fitness is only a part of the package.
100% mate!
I’ll go Asda instead
haha
How big of a role does swimming have throughout training? I've been working on getting into shape to sign up but I'm not the strongest swimmer. I tried looking into the swimming but I hardly see any swimming being done in videos and documentaries of rm training.
Second this question !
Third this question!
You do a swim test to begin with, they say aim to swim 15 lengths non stop is a good benchmark. You’re an amphibious soldier at the end of the day swimming should always be a strength!
clue's in the name. you better get confident at swimming.
Is there any time in between the 4 week ROP and basic training or do you go straight into the 32 weeks
I think you just get a chilled weekend on base mate.
@@CompleteCommando okay cheers
Currently looking to join the army, royal artillery then hoping to do my commando training and hopefully join the 29 commandos! but ive recently had a change of heart and really fancying the Royal Marines. What would information would you recommend me?
Either the Royal Marines or the Royal Engineers in my opinion. Royal Marines is the most Elite organisation but you get a great trade with the engineers mate.
Sam Logan Fitness alright nice one mate I appreciate it. Also, for hill training, what’s more beneficial in your opinion? Jogging up a really long steep him, or sprinting up a shorted hill?
@@ChrisJones-qh2dw Both are great mate. short sprints are the anaerobic system, which is important for explosive bursts. longer hills are for aerobic capacity which is pretty much any work over 15 seconds mate, extremely important to improve.
Sam Logan Fitness top man mate, really appreciate it. Filled out my Marines application this morning! Time to get to work
@@CompleteCommando Awesome answer You can also join 59 in the Royal Engineers
I'm shahab .. studying in cadet college and I'm from commenwealth country pakistan ... And I really wish to join royal marines as officer .. and I'm fit and fully ready for every task ... .. but I don't know how to join from commenwealth country..
When you're 18 you can join from the commonwealth. Apply online
@@CompleteCommando thank you for your reply ✨
Hi Sam
Just a few thoughts on family and the military. Both my parents served in the R A F
My dad served 12 years kids do suffer from traveling every 2 years I remember going to a different town and school then my dad would go away for months once my mom and I went to meet him in Libya and I was scared to go near him because he had been away for 10 months . It's better to get in at a younger age and get out and then have a family I think it's better for both sides
Thanks for sharing mate!
@@CompleteCommando Thanks Sam for the reply iam retired now and I was thinking about my dad and looking at your videos. Best of luck to you and your family.👍🇬🇧
Hey. Would you happen to know if this is the same process for the musicians role?
Great vid did you put weight on and size in basic training ?
Yes mate 11kg
Sam Logan Fitness thanks thats brilliant that was worried about losing the weight with all the cardio and just body weight training
And what's life like at a unit?
Chilled times are mega relaxed. Busy times are very intense. 👍 It's good fun most the time mate. Loads of training and you're with the lads.
What are the chances of getting into the aircrew pilot officer roles? Im 28 so I'm not eligible for commando officer. If I go the commando route how long before I become eligible to apply for pilot training and is it likely to happen?
what fh to do itness tests do the royal mariens have to do
If you burn 5000 calories a day while training then how much food/calories do they give you to maintain your weight?
I would like to know if crossed eye people can join ?
If you’re eye sight is not affected?
If you fail the tests at end of ROP do you get back trooped or fucked.off??
Hey sam, I'm 28. How viable is joining at my age. It's taken me a little while to figure out what I want from life.
100% Mate you're at a great age for it bud defo.
Tom join the reserves first, and then go for a short-service enlistment, its an alternative thats open to you.
@@rparobinson01 what's the benifit of this over going for the full thing.
its just another option as i dont know your personal circumstances, At 28 you will be one of the oldest in the troop by a long way, and that in its self is added pressure. if you go down the RMR route it will take some of that pressure off. you'll still have to rock up at CTC and pass all the tests, just trying to give you options to explore, i hope your successful.
Would you say more people are injured or drop out? X
Hard to say as some lads bottle it and say it's an injury. I'd probably say more leave than get injured. Normally there's an excuse like, the girlfriend or family etc.
@@CompleteCommando off to training on the 27th. Wish me luck mate x
@@dannywalderman3366 good luck
