    if you are overweight I’d suggest tracking your calories with the “ Harris Benedict equation”. Try to reduce 15% (roughly 500 cals) deficit from maintenance and eat a high amount of protein with each meal.

    Hitting steps like 10k every day on top of the exercise regime for AGS prep should get you there.

    Try to stay active and get in high intensity training workouts at least x 2 per week.

    monitor weight per week and recalculate deficit every month.

    Classification folks; I thought there were certain doctors looking after the Medical evaluation but the email just mentioned a GP. Is it now just your own doctor and it's out of your own pocket?

    Did I see someone say here that your medical with your own gp before your fitness test is free ? How do you go about doing that if so ?

    Will anyone else here be applying for the next campaign as well? I’m considering it, just in case I don’t get through the fitness test/medical for this round.

    Anyone else struggling with the layout of form B ? It’s all over the place on my laptop. Any tips to sort it out ??



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45 Conor123456


    Convert it to pdf file when sending it in that’s what I had to do and the said it was good, hopefully this will help



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 19 Query101


    Mine was the same. I slightly fixed it up here and there but just fill it out and send it on.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 53 ✭✭Irishguy215702


    The full pension is €14/15k or state pension. Mine is 9k as I won't get the full 30 years service. If you're over 30 joining you won't get the full pension a after 30 years of natural inflation will be eroded greatly.The pension though as shocking as it is is only one reason out of many for retention issues. I covered alot in a previous post. Another aspect which I didn't mention before is work life balance - won't be able to plan things for your days off due to court appearances/ taking calls on work on days off also



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 169 ✭✭bobbyD1978


    Stop taking the calls or claim overtime for them. If no one answered the damn thing, maybe the assholes that assume we are also married to the job, might stop calling



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 badgerboy123


    Has anyone received an offer for next intake ? Or do they know when they will start sending out offers



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6 EoghanG23


    What is the number of push ups and sit ups we have to do for the Physical? I know the video on YouTube says it , but I keep hearing its been reduced. Anyone that done the physical recently know if that's true or still the same



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 45 Conor123456


    22 push up and 32 sit ups

    Does anyone for the 8 weeks placement if you can request a different training station other than your home town (if it has a training station)?
