    I train twice a day Sunday to Friday, so that’s give or take 12 hours a week. Cardio everyday sometimes twice, callisthenics 3/4 times a week, swimming once a week and strength once a week.

    I have bought the book and I have completed my first four week cycle of the Para Fit programme. I am using it to get in shape before applying for the Paras. In your book you mention that you need 5-10 cycles before you are fit enough to be considered of paratrooper standard. Would that be using the objective measures of sub 8 minute 1.5 mile run time and the 16km run times as outlined in the book etc? I'm aiming to get into top shape and look for a good pass in P company rather than just to scrape by. Many Thanks
