Everywhere I have read says that you wpn't be punished. We will take an APFT near the start of Beast, I believe up to 50% of kids fail. However, if you fail the real ACFT at the end of Beast you will be expected to take part in very early morning workouts. I am in the same boat as you, try changing up how you run. I ran with a partner and was able to cutoff like 3 minutes from my usual time and my legs had already been sore by that point.
Thank you! Will definitely try this!
Never heard this one before. I have classmates who can’t run a 15 min two mile and I’ve never heard of anyone getting into any trouble because they can’t. There’s plenty of people here who specialize in power over stamina or have specialized for some sport and can’t run a 15 minute two mile but are still studs in what they can do well. Depending on what you’ve trained, your gender and genetics you might be oriented one way or another in terms of power vs strength. Don’t fail the ACFT but don’t stress over it like it’s the end of the world either
They are trying to determine what level of Survival Swim they need to place you in.
You do--if you can't, you'll just be put into one of the lower levels of swim. I couldn't, and passed survival swim just fine.
Don't stress about the running. You will run people of similar ability. Get good at holding the front leaning rest.
