Average Person tries the US Army Fitness Test

In today’s video, I take on the U.S. Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) — with zero training and no practice. The test includes 2 minutes of push-ups, 2 minutes of sit-ups, and a 2-mile run (3.22 km). The big question: Can I pass all three events and beat the standard?

Inspired by a viral clip of ‪@MikeThurston‬ failing the test years ago, I wanted to see how an average person (with past military service and current injuries) would stack up against the U.S. Army’s minimum standards.

📊 Passing Requirements (My Age Group):

42 push-ups in 2 minutes
53 sit-ups in 2 minutes
2-mile run in under 15:54
