In late September 2019, the Army released updated Army combat fitness test (ACFT) standards. They are shown on the ACFT score chart below.
The chart demonstrates the standards required for each movement, as well as the minimum score required for different categories of soldiers. A score of 70 is the minimum for soldiers in "heavy" physically demanding units or jobs; a 65 is for soldiers in "significant" physically demanding units or jobs; and a score of 60 is for soldiers in "moderate" physically demanding units or jobs.
A 60 is also the overall Army minimum standard for passing the ACFT.
The test is scheduled to become the Army's official test of record in October 2020.
The table is broken into points; deadlift (MDL); standing power throw (SPT); hand-release push-up (HRP); sprint, drag and carry (SDC); leg tuck (LTK); and two-mile run (2MR).
