Re: Introduction- Devon
Welcome. Who graded your form on this PT test? Unless you're an absolute animal I suspect those numbers will be much lower when graded properly.devon.223 wrote:I have just finished up my PT test, here are my results:

Regardless, drive on, listen to the advice given and get at it.

No apologies needed, your reply was timely enough.devon.223 wrote:Ranger Cams, the PT test was graded by a fellow recruit here in my town. We because friends at MEPS and have been training ever sense. If you would prefer I can do another PT test and have it graded by my recruiter directly. Also I am sorry it took me so long to respond I have been using most of my time to read the "five mentees report here" thread.
Respectfully, Devon.
It's good that you're already training with a fellow recruit, but it would only benefit you both to have someone with a solid background of taking and grading PT tests with knowledge of the standards. It'll give you a more solid idea of what needs improvement.

Re: Introduction- Devon
True dat. Most civilians don't realize there is a standard for for doing push-ups(and pull-ups) , and that most people do them incorrectly. There is a reason for it. It requires much more endurance and strength to do them properly. When done right, it is actually a really good total body exercise, and works your core well. I'd wager that score drops almost by a third, but it is still a good start.cams wrote: ..it would only benefit you both to have someone with a solid background of taking and grading PT tests with knowledge of the standards.
