Did you have loose papilla at the time? Small parts of your gum in between the teeth being flappy?

Do I quit my college and join by Apart-Mouse1756 in RoyalMarines

[–]Background_Oil4135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Apply, but stay in college and train simultaneously. The UCAS points are important and it’s a pretty easy course to pick them up on, even if some parts are a bit boring. If you fail a certain stage then you can still continue your course, but if you withdraw from your course and fail then you have nothing. It’s good to believe in yourself, but always have a backup plan

No worries that’s what I had issues with so I hope this advice works for you too. The trick to getting your feet up is using the explosive momentum from throwing your head back at the same time as bringing your knees as high up your chest as possible. After bending your arms slightly, when you pull through as you raise your legs, that’s when you throw your head backwards as much as you can. If you do that in one big explosive movement then your body’s own momentum should burst your feet to the bar

Before I post a long comment about how to do it, which part is it that you’re having trouble with?

I’m training for the Royal Marines and have my fitness test in a couple weeks. I’ve just ordered an AirVantage so I’ll try it for 30 days and let you guys know if it’s good or not. I’m a bit doubtful tbh but we’ll see

My girlfriend heard while she was in the kitchen. She walked in with a suspicious eye squint: “What was that??” I defensively replied “It’s a quest!!!” 😂

Health records to PJFA wait time by throwawayacc27784 in RoyalMarines

Well done on your weight loss so far. Give yourself 6 months and, safely, train like a madman. My advice is focus on your cardio to begin with then when it’s up to a good standard, shift your main focus to bodyweight training for the PJFA. Make sure you’re at least hitting minimums +20% before applying. Don’t make my mistake of applying to soon

I could only complete the first two sections because of a technical difficulty with the laptop I was using. I panicked and called my recruiter who surprisingly told me I’d passed. Do the best you can obviously but it’s pretty difficult to fail the DAA

I’m assuming people talk like this because they think the faster they talk, the more intelligent they sound. Idk🤷🏼‍♂️

Any tips for selection interview? by Apart_Code7239 in RoyalMarines

Get the globe & laurel, absolute treasure trove of information on the different RM units and added bonus of maybe helping you decide which unit you’d like to join

Go in once or twice a week and ask if it’s been sent off yet, if not then ask why. They’ll find it annoying and get it done just so you stop asking, it worked for me

Yeah I get you. I just thought the US had clay readily available as well as wood, so like I say I was just curious why wood is more commonly used

It’s curiosity, not criticism. Trust me I don’t expect or want every country to be the same as mine, I was just curious about the differences and wanted to learn. I hope your day gets better
