UK: Basic training – Body image?
Hi,
I’m due to start basic training in the British Army in a weeks time and I’m really concerned with the way my body is. I’m not toned in anyway, nor am I particularly fat (5′9 72kg 32″ waist). Will most of the lads turning up for basic be toned? Should I expect to be made fun of? Should I be concerned with my build?
Basic training in the British military is design to bring everyone up to a required standard some will be toned but most will find the going hard for a while i have done 2 lots of basics One in RAF and another in the Australian Air Force
when i joined the RAF in March 1959 i was under weight 58 kilos and 172 High after finishing basics i could run 5 miles with full pack without problems
there is a lot of Kidding around and some rude remarks but you are part of a team so if you don’t deliberately let down the team by not trying you should be fine.
if at any time you have a problem ask for help we had a mate in the RAAF who could not March so we had him marching in the corridor for several nights till he got it right I
and like all organisations there bullies I reported them Not popular but Basics are only for 12 weeks and i was not going to let any one bullied me and get away with is and it lets them know that the British Military don’t like Bullies
