afc harrogate - do I have to meet the fitness requirements for the role I want to join after, before I get to harrogate

Hi, great question. You need to reach the basic Army fitness requirements to pass selection. Once you are at AFC(H) you will have a lot of physical training so you will naturally get fitter through a gradual build up. Obviously the fitter you are the easier you'll find training so my advice would be to really concentrate and focus on your fitness - it's the easiest thing to actually get right as you know exactly what / where you need to be. You could download the 100% Armyfit app which might help you too. Good luck.
