All Reserve Soldiers and Officers joining the Army Reserve in Glasgow must pass a fitness test.

Today, we will break down the three exercises you must complete to join the Army Reserve in .

1️⃣The Multi Stage Fitness Test (Beep Test)
You need to run between two lines, 20m apart, in time with a beep. These beeps will get steadily faster. Your score at the end is based on the point where you can no longer keep up.

Why do we test your running? - The run measures your aerobic capacity. Aerobic fitness is essential for all military tasks and important for injury prevention.

2️⃣ Medicine Ball Throw
Sitting with your back against a wall, you'll throw a 4kg medicine ball as far as you can. Your best throw of three will count. You must throw at least 2.7m to meet the lowest soldier entry standard. Some trades will need you to throw the ball 3.1m.

Why do we test your seated throw? The seated ball throw measures your upper-limb explosive strength. This is an important part of fitness and is essential to being able to perform many military tasks well.

3️⃣Mid-Thigh Pull
Standing in front of a bar set to mid-thigh height, you'll be asked to pull the bar upwards for 5 seconds, then rest and repeat. Your best score of the two attempts will count. You must pull 50kg or more to meet the lowest soldier entry standard, although some trades will need a higher score. Your score will be taken from the best of your two attempts.

Why test your mid-thigh pull? This test measures your lower-body strength. In the Army, you need lower body strength for many everyday military tasks.

None of the above assessments are undoable; through hard work and determination, you can join a great cohort of like-minded Reservists in Glasgow TODAY!
