Not sure if this would get me through selection, but my trick before any big test on PT or in the field is reminding myself that i can't do better than my best. And if my best isn't good enough there's no point worrying because that can't be changed at the time. So I relax a bit.
So if I fail or don't do as well as I'd like, I it least know that I gave it my all.
Great point mate 👌
And thank you for making these videos. I think more people need to hear this which is why Im grateful for you sharing your knowledge and experience with the world.
Thank you 🙌
UK SF 92% fail rate out of hardened Para's and Royal Marines. SEAL's have 70% fail rate recruiting from civi street, that is night and day in terms of difficulty
Not the highest ever fail rate for selection mark billy billingham’s selection was 98% I think in the modern day most people are sfsg and pathfinders it seems
Walmart and delta airlines have lower acceptance rates than Harvard. Washout rate alone is a poor indicator of difficulty.
@@loganwells548 Contrary, it is the prime indicator of difficulty. This fact is well within the realms of common sense. Your example is not equivalent as other factors come into play, like credibility, finances, status etc...
@@loganwells548 Which makes sense seing as SEAL's are a tier 2 unit and SAS / SBS are tier 1
Good advice. The journey of whatever we are striving for is as pivotal as the outcome. Lessons can be learned from both failing and succeeding. I think we have to experience both for personal development.
You absolutely have to experience both. Success and failure are one and the same path 👊
@@thenaturaledgeHey Simon. How are you. Hope you are doing ok.
So I just wanted to ask whether you are trained in Hand to hand combat ? Mostly probably it is a Yes but which system is it? Is it MMA without rules or Combatives taught by Lee Morrison or anything similar to that? Like what is it?
Asking out of curiosity
Thanks.
In America right now we've had the least amount to people enlist in our military history and i figured that joining before college would only do me and my country good. Im currently 17 and im trying to get my grades up and get prepared physically.
Can you show us a weekly workout split to help build for a special forces training?
Seconded
I finished my BCom Law degree before my 26th birthday this year and was eager to join my country's navy as I'm a fit oak that played sports throughout highschool and had been preparing for the military prior. I was disappointed when I was told that I'm too old at 26 and now I'm contemplating joining the police force to have a go the elite units so I can do something fulfilling before I sit behind the desk. Love your channel mate 🇿🇦❤
Good advice for life, to remind yourself that you’re own actions are a sort of measuring stick. Just keep marking the stick at certain times I guess to ascertain whether you are growing or shrinking in whatever it is that drives or defines you. Even though the outcome is the same for all of us it gives us feedback on what we are doing, or not doing and possibly how we are viewed by others.
Thanks.
Using your own internal markers is incredibly powerful. You’re right too, you need to keep an eye on the metrics you use.
@@thenaturaledge thanks for the response. I was surprised to hear in one of your videos you are moving toward the corporate sector, again.
There are a lot of people in the private Labour working sector who could benefit from you and others like you and vice versa. To be blunt…I would have thought the corporate sector is more competition than provision. I don’t personally see someone like you as competition. Purely because many in the labour working sector could do much of what you do physically.
We lack strategic thinking though on how to improve our businesses, manage our time and role models on what fit and proper people do and actually look like.
There’s so many broken bodies, minds and businesses around at present due to the “lack” of CIA that you speak about, personally and socially…plus a whole host of other things.
We are kind of out here trying to emulate what some of you people have done in terms of improving our health, our minds etc but we have nothing to go on other than films and UA-cam searches. There is no proper direct contact.
Sometimes Prescence is everything.
Even a strategic workshop for workers health every now and then wouldn’t go a miss.
@@thenaturaledge my apologies for the above comment. Kind of went off topic there. Later realised you would have your own business model etc.
absolutely. I think its all about setting your own standards. I never really care if I reach a certain standard that others have set before me; The only thing that is important to me is: "Was I actually totally aligned with MY purpose all the time or did I slack?" If the answer to this question is yes, I dont need any more external approval because I know Ive given anything,
AND even more than I though I was capable of.
In my opinion its not about the goals you achieve but how you feel about YOURSELF. ( your mental game of course)
You’ve nailed it here. It’s rare to see people with this mindset, good effort 👊
@@thenaturaledge well it cant be a coincidence I guess. Its just not sexy:
Certain activities in my day feel like a literal nightmare and sometimes I feel like throwing up because I dont want to do the things. But I acknowledge that this is for my low level of productivity (or maybe jusr for my mindset which isnt hardened enough yet?) (Im just not really used to it yet) and that its this kind of effort that is asked of me in order to reach my goals and have the kind of life I strive for. Knowing that I dont really care about myself or my feelings.
Gotta earn it everyday!
Hey Simon. How are you. Hope you are doing ok.

Thanks.
short but very profound
No. I have mental problems that would probably disqualify me from joining even if I wanted to. I am generally opposed to the military on political grounds, mainly the way that our leaders choose to use it, but have a begrudging respect for the people on the ground who overcome in the face of great odds.
What do you need to get on the ASVAB test to be a special force
Brother said to me when he went on. He said instead of focusing on the pain try and enjoy the selection course and think of it in a positive way especially when it comes to the jungle nothing more badass patrolling through the jungle with guns 😂
Hi m8 what was the go to Bergen you lads would favour in sbs not selection but when you were sf thx?
I still used the issued bergan mate, with a few mods. I didn't see many lads buying ones. TBF we were using them very little because everything was geared to Afghan.
hey man, is there anyway I could possibly get in touch with you? I'm planning on joining the Royal Marine Commando's and pushing for SFSG, but I don't know where to start, and I'd love to get some insight & advice from someone who has been and done, love your videos keep up the good work man!
Dude there's marine channel on here that gives out advice
He's called complete commando , that's the channel name bud good luck
Fella concentrate on becoming a Royal Marine. Your career after that will take care of itself. Plenty of advice out there on training for the Royal Marines…
I'm not ideally worried on training ect, I'm Primarily worried about the 3 day course before joining as a marine, math tests ect, I got fucked in school pretty bad mate, constantly scrapping ect. So I'm worried that if I fuck the entry shite i wont get in. I'm grateful for all the advice though.

What watch are you wearing? And what are you wearing on your right wrist?
It’s a G-Shock rangeman blackout watch, and the other thing is a Whoop pal.
@@thenaturaledge is the watch worth it? I need one for working out and running aswell as outdoor stuff…
