Understanding the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT)

The Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) is the U.S. Army's physical fitness test, designed to better connect fitness with combat readiness. It replaced the Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) in 2022 and consists of six events that measure various components of fitness crucial for Soldier tasks.

The Six Events of the ACFT:

  1. 3-Repetition Maximum Deadlift (MDL): Measures muscular strength. Soldiers lift the maximum weight possible for three repetitions.
  2. Standing Power Throw (SPT): Measures explosive power. Soldiers throw a 10-pound medicine ball backward and overhead for distance.
  3. Hand Release Push-Up (HRP): Measures muscular endurance. Soldiers perform as many push-ups as possible in two minutes, releasing their hands from the ground at the bottom of each repetition.
  4. Sprint-Drag-Carry (SDC): Measures muscular endurance, strength, agility, and anaerobic capacity. This event involves five 50-meter shuttles: sprint, 90-pound sled drag, lateral shuffle, two 40-pound kettlebell carry, and a final sprint.
  5. Plank (PLK): Measures core strength and endurance. Soldiers hold a plank position for as long as possible.
  6. 2-Mile Run (2MR): Measures aerobic endurance. Soldiers run two miles for time.

ACFT Scoring and Standards

Each event is scored on a scale of 0 to 100 points. To pass the ACFT, Soldiers must achieve a minimum of 60 points in each event, for a total minimum score of 360 points. Higher scores indicate greater physical readiness. The scoring standards are generally uniform across age groups and genders, though specific passing requirements can vary slightly based on a Soldier's component (Active Duty, National Guard, Reserve) and Military Occupational Specialty (MOS).

This calculator uses a simplified scoring model based on general ACFT standards, providing an estimate of your performance. It interpolates scores between the minimum (60 points) and maximum (100 points) raw scores for each event.

How to Use the Calculator:

  1. Enter your performance for each of the six ACFT events into the respective input fields.
  2. For time-based events (Sprint-Drag-Carry, Plank, 2-Mile Run), enter your time in minutes and seconds.
  3. Click the "Calculate ACFT Score" button.
  4. Your individual event scores, total score, and a pass/fail status will be displayed below the button.

Remember, this calculator provides an estimate. Official ACFT scoring should always be conducted by certified graders according to Army regulations.
