    Hi, sorry - i didn't really understand the question. As in, how do you stay motivated? or fitness related! Sorry! Let me know and i'll do my best to answer.

    Thanks for the response. Exactly how you've stated, I want to know how to stay motivated as well as staying fit.

    Hopefully you've got a good candidate support manager who is keeping you in the loop with your progress. You can help by staying on top of things (pushing for your med docs from your GP if required). General fitness will help - a few light runs, no weight or anything crazy as you don't want to injure yourself. If you have access to a gym then strength and conditioning would really help, if you don't then just stay active (don't spend the whole summer sat inside playing on a computer). If you haven't already got a job perhaps look for a part time job whilst you wait - this should also keep you active if you're not just required to sit behind a desk! The army will build your fitness up gradually but the fitter you start the easier everything will be. Hope this helps. Good luck with it all.
