What is the latest for ACFT profiles?

2020-01-23T09:13:10-05:00

I've heard different answers elsewhere so I figured this would be my best bet. I will need a permanent profile for the Leg Tuck (bilateral shoulder injuries). Is it possible to be exempt from just that event? Or can I do another event in place of? Will profiles even be allowed in the long run? I also welcome thoughts and opinions!

Follow up question for everyone: Who or what unit is the authority on this? Who would be the person who could answer this?

Last I was tracking about profiles was in the L section for no running profiles. I haven't seen any traffic about profiles in the U portion yet. This link is from November, but all it mentions is the cardio portion. I think they are still hashing out the profiles for the other PULHES categories.

Permanent profile guidance allows modified ACFT with as few as one event during diagnostic phase

However, a 3-event minimum has previously been floated as the standard for when the ACFT becomes the Army’s test of record.

I believe that the most current information is found in the ACFT Initial Operating Capability document.

The link is attached, your relevant section is 1-81, I'd post the excerpt, but TRADOC has the file on lockdown.

FRAGO 8 released the updated guidance on profiles.

You must be able to complete at least: the Deadlift, Sprint Drag Carry, the Standing Power Throw and an alternate aerobic event

The most current is must complete the Deadlift, Sprint Drag Carry, the Standing Power Throw and an alternate aerobic event- the row, swim, or bike.

Edit: I stand corrected, it is a minimum of the 3 RM Deadlift, SDC, and the aerobic event.

Deadlift, S-D-C, and a cardio event (no walk authorized).
Others here have mentioned the Standing Power Throw, but I haven't seen that posted.
