I’m currently in the selection process for the Royal Marine Commandos. Initially I began training for the selection tests and the imminent PRMC (Potential Royal Marines Course) on my own. I began to find myself getting bored with my training and I was always training within my comfort zone not seeing any real results being made. I received a word-of-mouth recommendation about Darryl and his training, checked out his website and decided to get in touch. The best decision I have made.
When I first met Darryl we went through a number of physical and medical tests and also discussed my requirements. Darryl already had a depth of knowledge regarding the PRMC and the demands of the Marines, which filled me with great confidence. I have always believed myself to be a relatively fit man; however Darryl has shown me a completely new aspect to fitness which I was blown away by. Being prepared for whatever life throws at you.
I have Darryl for two sessions per week on a one-to-one basis. Every session is unique I never know what to expect, except that I will be challenged and taken to new limits which I could of never of done on my own, and I am achieving goals I never thought possible.
With not just the physical programming but practical tips on diet, rest and recovery with the psychological/mental preparation Darryl has put me through; I have passed every RM physical selection test first time scoring highly. On one particular test where I scored full marks a serving Royal Marine commando piped up: “Whatever training you’re currently doing, keep doing it because it is doing you wonders!".
I now have 3 weeks left until PRMC and Darryl already has me exceeding the maximum physical requirements.
So Darryl a big thank you for your motivation, perseverance and dedication looking forward to the remainder of my training.
