The general overseeing fitness for the U.S. Army hopes to see the proposed Army Combat Readiness Test approved next spring and, in time, become the service's standard physical fitness test of record that all soldiers must pass.
The service is in the middle of the Army Combat Readiness Test, or ACRT, pilot, exposing soldiers to the six-event fitness test designed to better prepare them for the rigors of combat than the current three-event Army Physical Fitness Test, or APFT.
The ACRT was developed, at the request of Army Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Milley, to better prepare soldiers for the physical challenges of the service's Warrior Tasks and Battle Drills -- the list of key skills all soldiers are taught to survive in combat.

ReplyDeleteWhat are you talking abobut 2:51? Have you ever deadlifted/sled pulled/done hand release push-ups for reps/knees to elbows, or anything on this list other than a 2 mile run? These things SUCK and are VERY difficult to do. Much harder than sit-ups and push-ups.
