Is there any specific body training that i need to do before joining?

I am 16, and a girl, i have always wanted to be part of the army, ever since i was little, right now i am not that strong as i had so many injuries from riding motocross (im all healed now, fully) and i was wondering if there are any training i can do before joining?

    A good standard of cardio, aim to run 2km in 8-10mins will set you up for success.


    as well as Functional strength, things like, deadlifts, squats, pull ups and press ups.

    Also, have a go at tabbing. walking with a backpack on. Start light, about 8kg and walk for 3km.


    Working up to 10/15kg for 5km.
