PT test guides

How each branch's test works, the numbers that matter, and how to train for it. Every score in these guides comes from the same official tables the calculators use.

How these guides are written

The rules in each guide come from the branch's own test document: the Army's AFT score tables and directives, the Navy's Physical Readiness Program guides, the Air Force PFRA charts and DAFMAN 36-2905, and the Marine Corps fitness order and MARADMINs. Score numbers are read directly from the same data files the calculators use, so the guides and calculators always agree. Training advice is general guidance for healthy adults. Your unit's fitness staff and medical providers know your situation and come first.
