So I ran my PT test this week. (As Im in the middle of a transfer from reserve BOS'N to reg force Infanteer....hopefully) I scored a 10 on the shuttle run, 45 pushups, and 50 situps and 135 on the hand grip. I hope this makes me competitive. I have it in my head that all infanteers score exemptions. Correct me if I'm wrong....
But now for all you applicants and hopeful applicants who have questions about pushups- This is how they had me do it.
Hand directly under your shoulders. Looking straight forward. All the way up and down and break 90 degrees on the way down. I was allowed to continue until a I took a noticable rest stop. The staff were really friendly and demonstrated everything. As for how the 'pushup' felt.....the military pushups werent that much different than what I usually do. So I imagine they are the same as 90% of the populations. Good luck guys.
Anyways I would mind if an rifleman on here lets me know if those PT scores are sufficient for an applicant. (Im 22 yrs old) :skull:
