    The Gurkhas are highly respected in the UK!

    Gurkhas are hardcore, I remember seeing them at Catterick and they were immense.

    One thing regarding fitness is that they live at high altitude so their physiology is different to ours. Larger hearts, greater lung capacity etc which would affect fitness and bioenergetics etc. Not my area of expertise, but this is why Sherpas can climb Everest etc without oxygen.

    Came across your channel and you do a fine job of commentating on these videos. You show respect to your fellow professionals thanks.
    Re the Gurkhas, although they aren’t born in the UK they are one of the best known and most loved and respected regiments in the UK Armed Forces.

    I remember one motivated me to keep running at Donnington barracks.
