Corps Introduces Combat Fitness Test
March 7, 2010 - 2:19 am
Early this month, the Corps introduced a new fitness test that goes way beyond the current PFT that measures pull ups, crunches and a timed, three-mile run. The new “combat fitness test” — which will be administered in addition to the standard PFT — is more representative of what Marines are doing on deployment. Learn more about Military Fitness Tests (PFTs) at the Military.com Fitness Center.

thats funny because they just recently came out with a scoring for the CFT it was never scored before it was only pass or fail. So thats funny how you say you got a 300 cause thats how the PFT is scored not the CFT

Ive only taken it three times and I personally haven’t gotten below a 300. Most of the guys I PT with are in the same boat. Its much easier than the PFT.
