Im a serving squaddie and the secretary for Forces and REME strongman, drop me a PM with your DII address and I will email you with some more info

Yep, definitely the case first 5 years or so for most blokes. Instant nutters, just add alcohol! With regards the corps physical being better for training, it all depends on your pti's/ Q muscles. Know one mate who does green pt three times a week, always speed marching and tabbing. Where I am it's mixed service, the contrast in phys levels is so bad they can't do runs etc as the group strings out too much, even on steady state 4 milers etc so it's all cross fit circuits. Air squats, burpee's and pressups for the win!

Yep, I'm probably naturally better at endurance cardio and bodyweight stuff than strength, but I want to be strong not a whippet! I did a corps half marathon after a month of training and did 1hr 32mins, but it's boring and you look anorexic if you get into that.
