- Push-ups: 55 against a 30 minimum and 60 maximum (higher is better) = 93.33 points.
- 2-mile run: 810 against a 1230 minimum and 810 maximum (lower is better) = 100 points.
- Total 193.33 of 200 possible; pass mark 120.
- Body fat = 86.010 log10(34 - 15.5) - 70.041 log10(70) + 36.76 = 16.52%.
- BMI = 703 x 180 / 70^2 = 25.82.
- Fat mass = 180 x 16.52% = 29.73 lb; lean mass 150.27 lb.

What the APFT Calculator calculates
Scores a military physical fitness test event by event on the services’ sliding scale, and screens body composition with the DoD circumference equations.
How to use this APFT Calculator
Enter What to calculate, Service, Sex for the standards table and Age at the test. Total score updates as you type. Change one figure at a time to see what drives the result.
How the result is worked out
Open “How this is worked out” beside the result for the step-by-step calculation behind Total score, Maximum possible and Share of the maximum.
The method follows Hodgdon J.A. & Beckett M.B., Prediction of percent body fat for U.S. Navy men and women from body circumferences and height, Naval Health Research Center Reports 84-11 and 84-29 - the DoD circumference equations, DoD Instruction 1308.03, DoD Physical Fitness/Body Composition Program, Army Regulation 600-9, The Army Body Composition Program, Marine Corps Order 6100.13A, Marine Corps Physical Fitness and Combat Fitness Tests - scoring tables and U.S. Navy Physical Readiness Program, PRT scoring tables.
What you can compare
Change one input at a time to see how it affects Total score, Maximum possible and Share of the maximum. The inputs you can vary are What to calculate, Service, Sex for the standards table, Age at the test, Events, with the standards from your scorecard and Points at the minimum standard.
Understanding Total score, Maximum possible and Share of the maximum
This is an unofficial practice estimate. Only your unit’s current official scorecard and a certified grader produce a score of record, and only a medical provider can interpret body composition. Standards change: always read the minimum and maximum figures off the edition of the order in force for your test date.
