PT test at basic

Dazel · 06-05-2014, 05:14 PM

I was at a dep meeting this week and a lot of people didn't know the minimum to pass the PT test before battle stations... "Males will be expected to run 1.5 miles in under 12:15 perform 54 curl-ups and 46 push-ups in 2 minutes. Females will be expected to run 1.5 miles in under 14:45 perform 54 curl-ups and 20 push-ups in 2 minutes. You also must be within approved body composition measurements for your height and weight."

You forgot age, those numbers change depending on your age range

From my understanding age is considered after basic..

Age is considered at RTC as well... it's a standard Navy PRT and will be scored based on your age group.

Okay thanks I'll have to Google it then cause they don't say anything about that on the website.

That site's information may be technically correct but it's obviously incomplete, and it's even more obviously propaganda aimed at fresh, gullible high schoolers. They can crow all they want about how the "demanding exercise program will continue rain or shine, in extreme heat or bone-chilling cold", but it's immaterial because your PT will all be done indoors where it doesn't matter (except the 3-mile Pride Run, which absolutely will be cancelled for extreme weather). And it's hardly demanding.

http://www.navy-prt.com, while not an officially endorsed Navy page, has everything you need and more about PT scores.

EDIT: This is the link I meant to post. I was very confused when people were talking about the one above not including the 18-20 age group.
