Remember it’s about soldiering, and being the best. Working in extreme weather and conditions around the world. Unfortunately it is an anti climax to some, who end up disillusioned.
The best job in the world I spent 10 years in the corps and regret every day leaving when I did . I have spent 20 years in the London fire brigade and it does not compare to the corps
It's a tough job and it's not like any other job but I believe it's well worth it. The amount of physical and mental fitness you gain is huge and it's something you can't buy. You become disciplined, learn new skills, make new friends, defend your country and so much more. It'll be hard at the time and it's very risky especially when you're in a warzone but it's so worth it
I want to achieve it so bad but I feel put down with the fact I’m quite a small and skinny person - I’m still young but I feel discouraged when I struggle to put weight and muscle on, I 100% feel it’s the right decision though - any advice?
Do the very best you possibly can, they like that. It's in the commando ethos under, "Excellence". We had a guy who was a skinny distance runner, and he passed.

I imagine it shouldn’t be a problem. But it may depend on which joint you’ve had it on. I may or may not need one on my TMJ (jaw joint) I would be astonished if this disqualified me from training if/when I apply
@Charlie Bronson I think there were over 450 Royal Marine deaths in Afghanistan and 90% were IED related. However Afghanistan lasted for well over a decade so the chance of losing limbs or being seriously injured is relatively small. However if your having thoughts and doubts about dying or being hurt constantly, I dont want to sound harsh but you probably shouldnt join up. But if you want it, just go for it
@@oscarglover6630 i was never planning on joining up. Just been watching documentaries on what its like over there. And i heard them all constantly talking about IED's and figured they were a big popular danger over there.
A message to all aspiring Royal Marines. It all comes down to how much you want it, how hard are you willing to work?
Hey Sam, is the prmc changed to the POC now???
I want to join so bad but my dad is so against it
@@RP-xg9rr have u joined

Class videos these are helping me and a lot of other lads out, cheers💪
Great to hear mate.

I do it, not because I can, but because others won’t.
Great info, straight to the points 👍
Thanks mate
I want to join the Marines when I’m out of College but my parents are scared sick of it. Thank you for the video, It really does help.
No worries mate. I'd be more worried if my son didn't want to push himself and was happy to coast through life tbh.
Sam Logan Fitness thanks, They seem more happy with the Marines than the Army, I wouldn’t join the Army tho.
@@frankparker8850 death percentage is higher in the marines, if that makes you rest easy...

Signing up in a year and a half, always done extreme and dangerous stuff in my life an want a career path that pushes me. Good motivation cheers...
Got POC when the virus situation clears up, never looked forward to something as much in my life
Good luck!
Smash it mate
Great video mate! Cracking swimming once the pools open again and getting my application sent out 👍
Well done mate!! 👏 Get it smashed bud
Hello,
Is joining at the age of 29 is worthwhile?
Yes mate. Still get a 22 year career and retire at 52
@@CompleteCommando Well I was little bit apprehensive about my age. I was afraid wether I will get along with younger lads.
@@akhilgeorge5900 most lads are like minded. The immature ones soon get binned off
@@CompleteCommando Thank you brother.
@@akhilgeorge5900 no worries mate
Hey can you tell us what are all the places you've been deployed to?
All over the world mate. 👍

Eat a lot of food
Do you know anyone who's had an arthroscopy who then went on to join?
Not knowingly but I'm sure people have
I imagine it shouldn’t be a problem. But it may depend on which joint you’ve had it on. I may or may not need one on my TMJ (jaw joint) I would be astonished if this disqualified me from training if/when I apply
RM training video's?
On there way
I want to join but I don’t know how to put together a good workout plan that can help me achieve it.
i know what you mean i want to join but im not fit at the moment i have no clue how to get fit or anything like that
The complete commando program Sam has made us awesome! Give it a go
But personal this mate you do not have to answer, but what was the salary you was on after training?
1300 roughly mate. Then you get extra pay when away etc
I might join... What stuff do they provide? And what age can you join from.
It's something you have to take seriously mate. You're either fully in or fully out
It is about what you can do for them, not what they can do for you.
I wanna join but I’m afraid I won’t make over 50k a year
Get a different job mate
Or the reserves ?
Who's training is harder royal marine or parachute regiment
FFL
Ask a Para that, and he will say Para, ask a Marine that, he will say Marine... both high level elite Units..
Who did you serve with mate?
As in which unit or which lads?
@@CompleteCommando come on man... you tell me! You're being a public Bootneck no?
@@CoachDennyDenholm What is the question you're asking? Which unit I served at or which lads I served with?
@@CompleteCommando I will leave that to your discretion mate...
As much as I enjoy speaking in riddles, going to leave it here.
Is there a big chance of losing limbs or dying? I have heard IED mines are common and scarey?

Yes mate in recent conflicts most certainly.
@@CompleteCommando ok 👍 i have heard how dangerous and how hard to spot they are online. Thank you for confirming this mate 👌
@Sam Logan Military Fitness how often were Royal Marines getting injured by IED’s ?
