Anyone have any tips on how best to prepare for the beep test. I've been running quite a bit but cant seem to get upto 8.8. Any advice would be appreciated.

I presume you are using a shuttle test app? Try marking out your track as a 10 metre circuit so you have to do the turns twice..ie make it back to start by the time next beep goes. It is harder though so don't be disheartened if you don't make the 8.8 with this. Make sure you run the regular 20m circuit regularly as well. I would advise regular hill sprints to improve stamina and overall aerobic capacity. They're a killer but they work. Watch your diet and make sure you're doing warm ups/cool downs. Good luck!

Were you from this years 2019 recruitment campaign ? If so what oom are you in ? Just trying to have an idea of how they are moving

You have to wait 12 weeks to repeat it??

Let me know what they say, have mine 17th and not optimistic

Hi just wondering if anyone has the actual audio for beep test they use. I cant seem to find it anywhere. If someone has it and can send it to me that would be great.

Just wondering does anyone have any tips for the push pull machine? I am fairly nervous about it. I’m 5’4 female. I heard it’s hard if you aren’t that tall also struggle with upper body strength.

Tighted your stomach tense up your whole body legs glutes back etc. Put on foot in front of the other (if allowed) keep a rigid body as in a tight core. This will help you keep your posture and create more power while your pushing

Hey everyone, my form b was sent back on the 26th of November and I haven't heard anything back yet, anyone else in the same boat? Just getting worried I done it wrong. Oom 313 after interviews

Im the same a confirmation email from them would be nice

Hi. I did my interview in November and thankfully passed. Received word about that in the first few days of December.

When should we hear about sending in form B?

Christmas will throw a spanner in the works I'm guessing

Hi, have completed all stages as of today. Did interview in September, fitness last week and passed medical today. Had interview with local sergeant last week. Any ideas on when we will be called? Or how you know what stage your vetting is at, or if it’s even started? Thanks

Do they get in touch by email is it ? I’m like yourself I finished everything yesterday. I guess just need to be patient because it seems to be different lengths for everyone

Anybody have any idea when you are called for a retest for the PCT of you failed one part?

My GP clearance had to be sent back by 6th of December and I still haven't heard anything about PCT? Anyone else in the same boat? Should I give them a call?

My GP had to be back by 20th Nov and I still haven't heard re PCT. I've met with my sgt and super over a week ago now.

I sent gp form on the 20th November no news yet, I rang and was told to expect to be called “soon”, but no indication as to how soon is soon.
I reckon they have enough people or expect to have enough for the 1st intake and we’ll be called in New Year for the 2nd intake (that’s just speculation on my part though! )

Oh really I thought you had to do PCT before meeting sergeant and super. Might give them a call and seen if theres any indication of when it might be.

Hi, I am waiting for a date for my PCT. Any one have any idea when dates are coming out? also when do we have to meet our local sergeant and how do they contact you. Thanks for the help

Thanks very much.
