PRMC 729 (18th nov)

[Mikeyc]

anyone else on this PRMC?

 

[RDE]

Yeah, me again

 

[MumtoRM]

I think @RDE might be!

Ha Ha! He beat me to it!

 

[Mikeyc]

haha, what are your stats bud?

 

[RDE]

Return 8:59
Bleep test 13.5
Pressups 51
Sit ups 60
Pull ups 7 (only hit that once usually 6)

I saw your stats on the other post, smashing it!

 

[Mikeyc]

I *text deleted* get under under 9 for the return run, and definitely need to improve sit ups, have you set yourself any target numbers in training or targets points on PRMC?

 

[RDE]

I want to get under 8:51 so I'm just running it constantly! Only to hit 50 press ups, 65 sit ups and 6 pull ups on the actual gym test, I'm not focusing on the points, just giving it everything on the day if I'm honest. What about yourself?

 

[Mikeyc]

Well I *text deleted* get near to max points, I *text deleted* give myself very difficult goals so i make sure i work extra hard to try and achieve them.

 

[RDE]

That's good mate, I'm just giving it my all every session. Do you do any weight training?

 

[Mikeyc]

not really, I do the 300 workout sometimes but not for a while, but that's weights and body weight exercises. mainly do body weight exercises to failure. what about you pal?

 

[RDE]

Ah that's good mate, nope, I only do body weight now, unless I'm working on triceps then I use weights (build up for pressups) sometimes I do drop sets on the machines but that's only to finish a workout. I don't do sets or reps either (unless I'm counting for gym tests) I work for time! Minimal rest.

Yehh im on that date lads. Wasn't expecting it that quick to be fair like, but good amount of time to get prepared. Before i got my PJFT date , i was smashing circuit out , *text deleted* press ups pullups and sit ups on point. They were good back then, but then just focused on my running for treadmill. Now time to get back on it! nervous but looking forward to it like. Anyone received any info or anything yet for the actual PRMC?

 

[RDE]

Yes mate I had the same problem with the PJFT/gym stats losses. No I haven't got my tickets yet, have you got all the kit you need ready?

 

[Ajboot08]

Nah mate , only got the date on Thursday , so haven't received anything just yet. So no I haven't got any kit sorted as of yet. I will keep you posted if I get anything through. How you feeling about it ?

 

[RDE]

Oh I see, top work mate! I got mine almost a month ago, if you find a website that has a decent boot polishing kit, let me know! I'm feeling ready and eager mate, never wanted anything more. What about yourself?

 

[Ajboot08]

I've got this booklet at home , sells all military kit , that's what my brother uses, he's in 43. There are a few polishing kits on that. Will have a look when I get in from work , will let you know mate.

Yehh I can't wait for it mate ! Nervous like but that's exepcted. Just need to crack on with my training and not get injured. This your first attempt ?

 

[RDE]

Thank you mate! I've been struggling to find a decent set!

More than anything I'm looking forward to meeting lads who have the exact same goal as me! No one else really understands I you know what I'm on about. Will be decent to be around those sort of lads.

Swimming helps reducing injury chances, so I go after a big session!
It's my first, is it the same for you?

 

[Ajboot08]

Know exactly why you mean mate. Got full on support from everyone but only you understand what you wana do and what you got to do. Yehh should be a good laugh !
Yeh I did used to get shin splints but swimming and stretching has really helped it

 

[Ajboot08]

And yeh first time mate

 

[RDE]

Exactly, I'm looking forward to the craic. Should be a good few days.
What did your brother say about it? 43 is where I want to go after RT.
