Kudos to the camera man for being the fittest and fastest runner.

Every stutter I assume is him stopping a swear word coming out lol

The RAF fitness test is : an Airman must be able to book into a Hilton in under 7 minutes.

Looking forward to it! in the gym 4 days a week now training i don't want to turn up to the careers office just being able to pass the fitness test i want to turn up and smash it!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="230">3:50</a> That dude didn't just skip leg day. He forgot his legs even existed

First Time I've heard the word "Please" used by a PTI in the Gym. I must be getting old.

I was very impressed with the AAPTI full screw. He conducted himself very well and certainly comes across as very professional. As I said before I find your videos really interesting as I compare what my training was like in the mid 70s.

I have been searching for a video like this for months! Super helpful for someone wanting to join the army. Thanks for making this video.

This was amazing to watch the night before going(second time watching it), just so that I could calm my nerves about going, honestly would have been so much more panicked otherwise

If my PTI doesn't look like that I will feel betrayed. What a mustache

That has to be the nicest PTI ever😂I'd almost shit myself when my royal navy ones even talked

Did my basic training at Pirbright then the guards depot in the 80,s and it was just one long beasting from morning till night, we were knackered before PT lessons because our instructors used to beast us on the way to the gym and on the way back , no wonder then that so many fell by the wayside . Today I think it is a more gentle introduction and the instructors actually talk to you with respect not like in the old days when they didn't give a shit if you jacked . How times have changed, mind you I have never been so fit all my life .

although it has been nearly 20 years since i left the army, it's interesting to see how things have changed, great video's that i'm sure will help new recruits, thank you for you're service

Awesome video mana, gives the younger generation an insight of what to expect. One love!

cracking video always informative and useful,and most importantly thank you for making these videos and your dedicated service to this country.

I thought the Beastings were pretty tame, we were hanging after the warm up. But he is being filmed.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="531">8:51</a>why would he do that? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

Really giving me a good insight into army life with your videos. I had my assessment centre at pirbright in June. I’m wanting to join the parachute regiment and got a 7.44 min run time in the 1.2 mile after 800m warm up which I was pleased about 👍 keep up the good videos

Absolutely brilliant look into the new test, thank you very much for a peek into what i hope ill be taking part in a few months when i've got my fitness to a good level.

As a Veteran, I find it really amusing how often the Instructor says Please !! Don't think our PTIs even knew the word existed!!😁

Yes - PTI is fantastic and he needs to be to get the job done in today's modern military. Excellent Video and a big thank you for putting it out here More Please!!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="207">3:27</a> that kid is straining his impulse so hard

So this is how it’s done today , very nice and polite I would say . Wasn’t like this back in the eighties believe me and it done me no harm. But liked the video ! Big respect to the British Army !

I enjoyed the footage brought back memories I thought it waa very informative the recruits were very good makes mw want to join up.I did my Training in 79-80 at Pirbright then went on to join 2nd Battalion Scots Guards. I made some great friend's we're srill in touch today 😀

I’m focussing on getting healthier over the next couple of months, I’m 19 n already quite athletic but nothing appeals to me more than starting and finishing the training with the same people you start with! I’d also like to sign up for the Royal Marines after getting the experience and knowledge of being in the army. Has anybody else been through a similar situation n has some tips? Nice one people👏🏻

in 25 years these recruits could be watching videos of recruit training and saying "in my day training was tougher than this!" times change and you got to change with it

This is, perhaps, the most polite and respectful military fitness course in the entire world. I don't know if this is because it was on film and they wanted to appear all kind and such, but dang.

Always some bumhole that is slow and gets everyone beasted

first time I've ever heard no swearing and no slaps/punches!!!

18 year old me was here in 2006. I'm now 32 this year . did 7 years in the army and loved it

Now these are the kind of videos I've been looking for. I am aiming to join the infantry by this time next year and am joining the gym. Even when my work has been physically exhausting, I will still go to the gym after to push my body to the max. I may be a female so the requirements are slightly lower, but I don't settle for a pass, only for excellence. Now I know more specifically what kinds of tests there are, I can test myself already to know what progress is being made. As my ex-raf tutor once taught us at college, never stop pushing yourself, even when you're out of breath and nauseous, and you'll excel

I need to do this as a reservist roll just to relight the fire in me. 37.5 desk job is boring the life out of me.

Just what i needed to watch as i’m planning on signing on at the end of the year!

Kickass moustache 👍

I can’t wait for this, gym 4 days a week and rugby training 2 days a week at the minute so hopefully I’ll meet the standard!

Really good video showed me some of the stuff to expect , since am thinking about joining the army in 2020

Standby... Around my beautiful body ten times and GO! Good effort, takes me back

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="231">3:51</a> that guy has a chest like Arnold

ITS HARD TO BELIEVE I STARTING TRAINING AT PIRBRIGHT IN 2004 TO JOIN 5THE RLC AS A DRIVER..SO MUCH HAS CHANGED ITS SO LAYED BACK AND RELAXED NOW..IM NOW WITH THE 2ND BATTALLION ROYAL IRISH RESERVES..BUT IL TELL YOU THIS FABIZY THE RESERVES GET A LOT OF STICK AND ARE VERY UNDER RATED.. I SERVED IN BOTH AND PEOPLE WOULD BE SUPRISED...KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK AS USUAL MATE THE VIDEOS ARE CLASS

ah the good old "stand by GO!" when youve done something wrong or not quick enough lol

When he called himself a bald headed freak hahaha

I was a army cadet and my first annual camp ( two weeks away) was brunswick nice to see it’s still alive

Brings back memories. Although very different from when I did this in the 90's. My distinguishing memory was Getting lost on the 1.5 mile run and throwing up on the grass bank at the end I was the corporals bitch for the rest of the day for that lol. I still came first with a time of 8min 10 sec. Was acceppted into the Royal Engineers. Happy days!

Good video..like how you get your message across easy but firm...unlike our pti,s in jlr/rct(they had a job to do)the gym was a place in hell

Is it me or does this test look somewhat weak? I know it's just a fitness test to confirm that a recruit meets the minimum fitness standard to begin entry but wtf????

Great video. Miss pirbright pt. Not been the same in unit

Best Recruit to najwyzsze wyroznienie podczas podstawowego szkolenia ,najczesciej w Pirbright.Moja corka byla tam ,lacznie z rekowery po zlamaniu ,a i tak zostala najlepszym zolnierzem.Wojsku brytyjskiemu trzeba przyznac jeden,zasadniczy plus.Tam naprawde jest jeden za wszystkich i wszyscy za jednego.|Niesamowita solidarnosc i obopolna pomoc.British Army is the best!

As always good video. Thanks for these man 👍

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="229">3:49</a> my man skips leg day

I bet he's just being "gentle" with the new entrants until they're accepted for basic training!

Always look forward to your videos great work will definitely share👍👍✔

I've recently subscribed and your vids are the only thing keeping me entertained during lockdown. Keep up the good videos

Joining Harrogate in September to hopefully end up joining the paras. Really loving these videos!

very informative . Preparing for my selection on 1st october

Thanks for posting these, I love your videos, I start at Pirbright beginning of September and I'm super nervous

I’m about to turn 15. Although I still have a few years I’ve been working on my fitness so that when it’s my time I’m ready! 💪

I was on a cadet camp in literally that first barrack <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="752">12:32</a>

@Amy Thomas: Amy, maybe you should watch the do's and dont's video as the PTI hit the nail on its head by saying "If words are offending you, you really need to reassess what line of work you've chosen "...Also, it's not up to Fabziy to teach somebody how to conduct themselves on social media, it's common sense! in particular if you want to join the Army you should know how to conduct yourself. And if simple words on a social media platform have the power to discourage the (potential) recruits in their training then we revert back to the wise words of that PTI "If words offending you you should reconsider the career path you've chosen!" , simple as.

GREAT Job giving insight to future recruits buddy

I have my run in two days looking forward running next to you 😎

I love that it’s not how good u r. It’s always bettering ur self if ur first great but the 13th person who is about to vomit and doing 110% is deemed better !

And the Great content continues ...Bless you Mate!!!

More standing and sitting than my time at pirbright lol

“Shuffle down please”. How very polite!

Wow, was here 18 years ago, seems like yesterday. gym and parade square haven't changed. PTIs not swearing 2 inchs from your face is different. i hated heartbreak hill, especially doing it backwards

Haha crazy, I had my first briefing with the guy that turned around too early at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="688">11:28</a> Glad to see he made it, it'll be my turn soon.

Getting a little look of what to expect just applied a few days ago

😁 Did my basic at Catterick in 1977(old git)...wish our pti had been so cuddly and polite!

Amazing vid

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="204">3:24</a> good way to tare your biceps

Thanks FZ, biking I do a fair amount , but it hasn't made that much improvement on me, a lot of your routine is new to me but ill have someone to assist when im in session .many thanks D.

i was there in the 1980s with the royal county of berkshire army cadet force pl 5 cippenham c coy, duke of edinburghs royal regiment. loved every moment. and not much has changed, part from some new builds.

I go for my assessments on the 28th of August, I can’t wait 💯

Good videos fabz🔥

I've just finished submitting my application, Hope to see you sometime Fabziy :)

I'm really learning from this New Fitness Test!!!

Thank you! I have my assessment on the 24th

I really want to join the Army, have done for many years but I got rejected because I broke my hip 5-6 years ago, sucks. Still enjoy watching military videos though

I think beep test has replaced this run...what happens when you dont meet your role standard with the beep test?

I love these types of vids. New subscriber!!

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="816">13:36</a> would have been beasted within a inch of his life for not trying until he could see the finish line. What an absolute whopper

They seem too polite with their instructions

Thank you for the videos 👍👍👍👍

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="30">0:30</a> He’s had more than enough of their SHIT😂

Is this the test reservists have to do as well, Given that's an 8 week course over 4 weekends from memory?

My fastest 1.5 was 8 minutes 40 and my best 20 meter Beep was slightly under 13 12/8 I think. 1.5 mile is 9 laps around a football field Tips 6 laps at a fast pace 3 laps best effort If your running on flat road like army lads do generally when you see the last few hundred meters you belt It! My only tips for the beep test If they still do It Is make it harder for yourself when you train at home. Measure out a few meters extra (makes you work harder for every level 22/26 meters. One thing they do I think In the Court System Is they let you get to a certain level For example the prisons service and police force Is a 15m one but they let you get to level 7 or 8 first then stop everyone for 5 minutes then do the actual test. Some Public Services let you get tired before you do the tests. For the army mainly It's a slow jog and a slow walk for about a mile from what I've read and seen! Then they ask you to do the run! You can make It harder for yourself when you train at home before you go to the PFT Center. Running cross country up and down hill uses alot more fitness then normal flat road running! Measuring a few meters more when you do beep tests at home u can buy apps ect. Do fell running and jog places up and downhill (ben nevis, snowdonia, your local moors!).

I’m glad I came across your channel, I do miss pirbright.. been 3 years now, got my pti course in September... deffo going to use your channel when it comes to recuirtment.

We used to have 2 PT vest a red one and a white one. the white one was worn when we had PT in the Gym and that was for us to lay on the floor on our backs and push ourselves around on our backs cleaning the floor - the white PT vest were not so white afterwards. The next day we would have to show a lovely white vest again. We never had any type of washing machines or dryers - yep it was great fun.

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="651">10:51</a> "keep going dickhead"

Jog on a run, do it again!

Interesting to see what actually happens in pirbright hope to be one of those people soon

See the girls sprinting at the end. Good effort.

This look easyyy, I’m 14 and I could do this now.

Had my assessment here 1st October, passed with an A grade, start basic in Catterick in February! Anyone else starting around that time?

I’m not British but it is interesting seeing how other countries do their military training.

my Dad was a chef there in the 70s.. I wen to Army Cadets there in the late 80s and worked as a K.P in D-Lines in the late 90s
