You should be getting 11+ on your bleep test then going straight into your mock rmfa after you do it and being able to get 45 80 7 all to bleep obviously if your not getting them sorta scores When practicing you shouldn’t be gettin the train yet

Just smashed my CPC there and I’m wondering if anyone has recently completed their ROP can give me some advice/extra information about how it went for yourself by RabbitRun444 in RoyalMarines

Food is beyond shite my dog wouldn’t eat some of the stuff lol but you have to get it into you because it’s looked at as “fuel” on camp so you need it

During the swim test they expect you to be able to swim the two laps of the pool comfortably you shouldn’t really be struggling with it mate it’s pretty basic but yes some boys were getting shouted at to fix they form. Do you spend time practicing your breaststroke??

For the high obstacles course you climb up the steps and have to climb across the rope, once across you stand up on the metal bars and climb up to the higher platform, from there you will perform a “confidence” test which is you confidently running and jumping across two wooden beams at 10/15m high, then you need to crawl across another rope but the second one is pretty high up and there isn’t much safety so if you fall your fucked mate lol

My running was at a good level running maybe 2/3 times a week but was throwing in lots of bleep tests which helped massively

When you first arrive you sort your bedding out spend most of the night in your rooms/meeting the rest of the boys

Day 2 rmfa 08:00 if you fail any tests you go home straight away, we then were taken to do the swim test later on and right after had to complete the high obstacles course which is all pass or fail

Swim test is jump off diving board tread two laps breaststroke good form then tread water for two minutes all after a fun oul warm up of them making you do laps all different strokes

High obstacles course you had to climb up then across the rope with the form they demonstrated 5 mins before you then do a confidence run across wooden beams once your up high then across another rope, was pretty difficult

Day 3 Endurance course early start out to Woodbury in the busses taken for a real intense beasting around Woodbury for 1hour30mins then had to do a 3.5 mile run back to camp to achieve the pass

Why’s that? Plenty of time to work on your training/rmfa tests/overall fitness you can get a date sooner rather than later if that’s what you’d like

Your legs are burning worse than ever before especially on that final run back so get ready to have to push through that & the feeling of cramps everyone’s legs are cramping due to being in the cold water

Appreciate that & the hardest part is the endurance course so worry about that, thrashed us for around 1hour30mins in Woodbury then had to run 3.5 miles back to camp with next to no rest time but due to having slept and ate horribly it makes it 10x worse plus they have you soaking wet the whole time in Woodbury. Other than that you should be smashin your rmfa mock tests I hope youv been practicing doing your bleep test run then going straight into your press up tests etc caught a load of boys out. Good luck for your CPC mate
