USMC PFT

[The Big Slides]

I took my first Physical Fitness Test for the NROTC Marine Option Scholarship.

Pull-Ups: 20
Crunches: 92
Three Mile: 23:00

I'd say I did fairly well for it being my first PFT. Any tips on how to improve (especially for the crunches)?

You should focus on improving your run time. You gain a lot more points by lowering the time.

And yes, you should also work on crunches.

Unfortnately the way to work on crunches is doing crunches.

Your scores are looking solid in the pull up and crunch sections. I recommend that you work on your running because during OCS between your Junior and Senior years you will be running constantly.
