Hi,
One thing that has been playing on my mind recently is how some people manage to achieve such a high level of physical fitness! For example in particular reference to the Bleep Tests (please write if not familar and I will explain).
Im currently at University studying a police course in which we are constantly assessed on these bleep test. The level you have to get to pass is 5.4 (which is far to easy) for those who know what Im talking about!
My levels have been rising, Im currently on level 12, but recently I've suffered a blow to my health and have been pratically inactive for 3 weeks and now worried that its gone down!
However back to the point, what I've been thinking is how the hell do soliders, Marines, SAS, Green Berrets and other indiviuals get to levels 15/16?
That must require tremendous cardiovasular systems and indurance?!
How do they achieve these levels?
P.s How long does it take for the human cardio system and stamina to decrease with inactivity?
Regards
