Are you sweating the new Army PT test? Here are some tips to ace it.

I have looked at this new PT test a few times. I am familiar with every event. I am confident I could pass it first time go despite having a P2 profile. I am not stranger to the gym in my personal time. If I still had Soldiers we would be practicing a few times week. Soldiers who are soft around the waist, who have weak upper body strength, and who simply will be lacking the form due to a lack of practicing will be at risk at failing.

I wonder if they’re going to close all the unit motor pools and consolidate the equipment. At any armory I’ve ever been to, that’s the only way I can see there being enough space. Unless they’re going to put the lanes at Guard/Reserve training sites and block out a MUTA 6 or 8 at that site. Even still, with as many Guard and reserve units as there are, there’d be conflicts. Maybe they should just build an octagon next to the PT site and let the unit XOs battle it out for rights.

Probably, another long duration requirement to take away from MOS training. And why would a transportation unit need trucks in the motor pool. They need PowerPoint and Infocus projectors to give mandatory training.
