Physical Fitness Test (PFT) Squadrons A-D
The squadrons have been divided into two groups for the next two days. Aggressors, Barbarians, Cobras and Demons did the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) today while the Executioners, Flying Tigers, Guts and Hellcats continued the rotation between PT locations and did their PT on the athletic fields today.
As a Cadet at the United States Air Force Academy, they will take physical fitness tests each semester to measure their overall strength and conditioning. Proficiency is required in both the Physical Fitness Test (PFT) and the Aerobic Fitness Test (AFT). Cadets are required to take both the AFT and PFT each semester of their cadet career.
During BCT the Basics take the PFT to see where their fitness level is so they can work on improving their weak areas and get ready for the Fall PFT.
