"Nine minutes and thirty seconds. August 1981 Basic Training PT Exam. "the Warriors", Company Echo, 8th BN. 2nd BDE, Ft Jackson, South Carolina. By a male 17 year old high school (junior) student on a split option training from San Diego, Calif. Army National Guard."
No. The male and female PT tables are labeled that way for a reason. When the current three-event PT test (which I don't agree with as it doesn't really test the physical demands of a soldier; the Canadian Army's PT test is much better) was developed in the late 1970s, the female standards in all three events were far lower than the male standards. That changed when every woman in the Army maxed the situp portion of the PT test.
No, you don't.
As many as possible, is the only answer there really is to give here. The PT scale varies by age. Also, the two mile run is part of the PT test, so keep that in mind, as well.
I don't know whether they sell Army pt shirts, pants, etc., but I did come across a cool store called SoldierCity which sells Army training clothes. Me and my boyfriend just got a couple of pairs of Army pt shirts and pants, and I got my dad (a retired Army veteran) some Army shorts for his summer workouts. We were all really impressed with the quality and service we got at SoldierCity.
If you fail the Physical Training (PT) test in the army, it is possible to face disciplinary action, including being discharged. Each branch of the military has its own policies and procedures regarding failed PT tests. It is important to communicate with your chain of command and seek guidance on how to improve your physical fitness to avoid further disciplinary action.
Yes, it can be. Fail a PT test, and you'll be flagged and barred from favourable action. Now, you might be able to protest it with the aid of JAG if it happens to you.. I cannot say for certain what the end result of that would be.
if i scored 237 on my pt test how many promotion point is that
The full form of PT is Proficiency Test.
Physical Training
No.
I imagine it could be, but most bars from favourable action I've seen were relinquished once the reason for them being put into place was alleviated. For example, someone flagged and barred for PT test failure would have them removed once they improved their PT test scores.
Most Army rangers have an average PT score of above 270. Special forces must have above 280
