Fitness is a huge part of Army life – and maintaining the Required Fitness Levels is critical. As a Soldier or an Officer, you’ll be given the facilities and time to train both in and outside of working hours, as well as advice on nutrition and hydration from our Army dietitians. Both regular physical activity and healthy eating will not only get you fit physically but keep you mentally sharp – which is critical in all aspects of Army life.

Check out the different levels of fitness you will need to attain as you move through your training below – ultimately every soldier or officer should aspire to be in the ‘100 Club’, which is the peak level of fitness that will help you achieve the best you can in the Army.
