Times have changed mate,before i joined up in the 90's you would find me doing cross country running with my poor dog..and hill walking and then running with boots and webbing on with bags of sand to build up the muscles that a infantry solider needs.
Stamina/endurance..a strong back and good calfs..
I don't know what good doing 6 days of weights would be good to anyone thinking joining up as they are training the wrong muscles..a solider need to be able to tab until he is told to stop with his burgen helmet and rifle..maybe a radio or a gpmg too if your a jonna..lol
All I'm saying is you don't need to be no daily Thomson (showing
My age haha) to get in to the legion or any armed forces..! They want a workable level and then it's progressive as a team so everyone is more or less the same level of fitness, apart from on a Friday when you may have company run..last 20 on guard for the weekend usually gives a hidden boost lol..
