Fall PFT Day 1

It is that time of year again! The Fall PFT for all Cadets started today with three different sessions. The photos will be have a link below for each session so if you talk to your cadet and find out what day and time they take the PFT it will make looking through the photos easier.

***Note: WebGuy will not be photographing Friday's sessions due to Parents Weekend events that day.

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.

The test was the same as last time consisting of Pull-ups, Standing Jump, Sit-ups, Push-ups, and 600 yard run.  The information chart is below.

The fitness-testing program serves many purposes, including:

  • Promoting maximum fitness among the cadet wing
  • Developing a foundation for a lifetime of fitness
  • Recognizing cadets who excel in maintaining their personal fitness

Those members of the Cadet wing who achieve the maximum point total on either the PFT or AFT belong to the prestigious 500 Club. Those few Cadets who maximize their scores on both belong to the exclusive 1000 Club.
