Ya, the army ranger pft is basically the army pft of 2 mile run, pushups and situps, with the 5 mile run, and pullups/chinups... To get a perfect score, one must at least hit these: less than 35 minute 5 mile run, 13 minute 2 mile run, 71 pushups, 78 situps, and more than 11 dead hang pullups/chinups, and then 4-5 hours for a 16 mile timed march with a 50-70 pound rucksack and full gear, I believe... Although, none of this means crap, unless you are hard enough to pass training, which ranger school is 60 or so days of pure agony and hardship, made for the hardiest of souls, a challenge I shall try to defeat, google it... Green Beret training is even tougher, then comes Navy seal training and air force pararescue, then delta, which to become a delta force operator, It'll be nearly impossible even for a team 6, pararescueman, etc, which generally get picked the most, then when delta's retire, some go to foreign legion, SAS, stuff like that, as killing bad people is about their only skill set.
I'd imagine that to get the perfect score one would fall into the "very fit" category.
I read that the min requirements are 5 mile run in 40 mins, 50 push-ups in 2 min, 60 sit ups in 2
min. Where would passing the test with the minimum scores in each event put you in terms of fitness? Would it be
average or good? I'm sure it would be at the higher end of good seen as it's quite a good challenge but then again if it is the minimum score to pass I could also imagine it being just average fitness?
Thanks guys
Good, compared to most... Complete crap compared to other rangers.
