Army Plans to Change PT Test
The Army plans to overhaul the 30-year-old Army Physical Fitness Test, according to a recent Army Times article.
Training and Doctrine Command is working to revamp the PT test, untouched since 1980, as it rolls out a revised, more combat-focused physical training doctrine. The new doctrine, the first since 1992, is part of a multiphase effort that will culminate in a new PT test sometime after 2011.
