About This Calculator
The Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) Calculator computes your score on the US Army's standard fitness assessment. The APFT measures muscular strength, endurance, and cardiovascular fitness through three events: push-ups (2 minutes), sit-ups (2 minutes), and a 2-mile run. Each event is scored from 0 to 100 based on age and gender, with a maximum total of 300 points and a minimum of 60 per event to pass.
Scoring follows the US Army's FM 7-22 Holistic Health and Fitness standards. Points are assigned using linear interpolation between the minimum standard (60 points) and maximum standard (100 points) for each of the 10 age groups and both genders. Push-ups and sit-ups award more points for more repetitions, while the run awards more points for faster times. Soldiers scoring 270+ total with at least 90 in each event qualify for the Army Physical Fitness Badge.
About the APFT
The APFT was introduced in 1980 and served as the US Army's primary fitness test until October 2020, when it was replaced by the ACFT (Army Combat Fitness Test). While no longer the official record test for most active-duty soldiers, the APFT standards remain relevant for historical record-keeping, injury profile testing, and some Reserve and National Guard components. In June 2025, the ACFT was itself replaced by the new AFT (Army Fitness Test).

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the APFT (Army Physical Fitness Test)?
The APFT is the US Army's standard physical fitness test, consisting of three events: push-ups (2 minutes), sit-ups (2 minutes), and a 2-mile run. Each event is scored from 0 to 100 points based on age and gender, for a maximum total of 300 points. Soldiers must score at least 60 points in each event to pass.
How is the APFT score calculated?
Scores are determined using US Army standards from FM 7-22 based on age and gender. For push-ups and sit-ups, more repetitions earn a higher score (60-100 points). For the 2-mile run, faster times earn a higher score. The formula uses linear interpolation between the minimum standard (60 points) and the maximum standard (100 points) for each age and gender group.
What is the minimum passing score for the APFT?
To pass the APFT, soldiers must score at least 60 points in each of the three events (push-ups, sit-ups, and 2-mile run). The minimum total score to pass is 180 out of 300. Soldiers scoring 270 or above with at least 90 points in each event earn the Army Physical Fitness Badge.
What age groups does the APFT use?
The APFT uses 10 age groups: 17-21, 22-26, 27-31, 32-36, 37-41, 42-46, 47-51, 52-56, 57-61, and 62+. Standards decrease with age, so older soldiers have lower repetition requirements and slower run time thresholds to achieve the same score.
What happens if I score below 60 in an event?
Scoring below 60 points in any single event results in a failed APFT. Soldiers who fail are flagged for remedial physical training and may be ineligible for promotion, schools, and awards. Multiple consecutive failures can lead to separation from the Army.
Can the APFT still be used?
The APFT was replaced by the ACFT (Army Combat Fitness Test) in October 2020. However, the APFT is still used as an administrative reference for historical records, injury profile events, and by some National Guard and Reserve units that have not fully transitioned. The ACFT was itself replaced by the AFT (Army Fitness Test) in June 2025.
How do I calculate my run time for the APFT?
Enter your 2-mile run time in minutes and seconds. For example, a time of 15 minutes and 30 seconds would be entered as 15 minutes and 30 seconds. The calculator converts this to total seconds and computes your score using the Army's age and gender-adjusted standards from FM 7-22.
