Introduction
The ACFT Calculator scores your Army Combat Fitness Test. Just enter your results for the five AFT events (the 3-Rep Max Deadlift, Hand-Release Push-Up, Sprint-Drag-Carry, Plank, and Two-Mile Run), and the calculator will show your points for each event and your total score. The six-event ACFT it replaced is kept as a legacy option. It tells you right away if you pass or fail based on the scoring standard you pick: Combat, General Male, or General Female.
The ACFT was the Army's fitness test until the Army Fitness Test (AFT) replaced it. The Army's AFT score tables were approved on 15 May 2025 and took effect on 1 June 2025; they cover five events and drop the Standing Power Throw.1 This calculator scores the AFT from those tables and keeps the six-event ACFT as a legacy option. Each AFT event is scored from 0 to 100 points, so the highest total is 500. Army Directive 2025-06 made the AFT the test of record on 1 June 2025, with a sex-neutral, age-normed combat standard of 60 points per event and 350 in total for the listed combat specialties and a general standard of 60 points per event for everyone else.3 You need to meet a minimum score on every single event and hit a minimum total score to pass.
The legacy ACFT option uses approximate anchors between the published ACFT score levels. You can also set your MOS physical demand category (Heavy, Significant, or Moderate) to see if you meet the higher standards your job requires. The results update instantly with a full breakdown, a bar chart, and a clear pass or fail status for each event.
How to Use Our ACFT Calculator
Enter your scoring standard, age group, and performance for each of the six ACFT events. The calculator will show your points per event, total score, and whether you pass or fail.
Scoring Standard: Pick Combat, General Male, or General Female. Combat uses gender-neutral rules with a 350-point minimum. Under the AFT the general standard is sex- and age-normed at 60 points per event.3 Army Directive 2026-07 later added 12D, 89D and 89E to the combat specialties.4
Age Group: Select the age range that matches your current age, from 17–21 up to 62 and older.
MOS Physical Demand: If your job has a specific physical demand category, choose Heavy, Significant, or Moderate. Otherwise, leave it on the default setting.
3-Rep Max Deadlift (MDL): Enter the total weight in pounds you lifted for three reps. Use the slider or type the number directly.
Standing Power Throw (SPT, legacy ACFT only): Enter your best throw distance in meters. You can use one decimal place, like 6.5. The AFT has no throw event.
Hand Release Push-Up (HRP): Enter the total number of correct reps you completed.
Sprint-Drag-Carry (SDC): Enter your finish time in minutes and seconds. A lower time earns more points.
Plank (PLK): Enter how long you held the plank in minutes and seconds. A longer hold earns more points.
Two-Mile Run (2MR): Enter your run time in minutes and seconds. A faster time earns more points.

What Is the ACFT?
The ACFT stands for Army Combat Fitness Test. It replaced the old APFT (Army Physical Fitness Test) and became the standard test for all soldiers in 2022. It has itself been succeeded by the Army Fitness Test, whose score tables took effect on 1 June 2025 with five events.1 Soldiers now test under the AFT; this page remains for scoring ACFT records.
The AFT Events (and the Legacy ACFT)
The AFT has five events; the ACFT it replaced had these six, the Standing Power Throw being the one dropped:
- 3-Rep Max Deadlift (MDL) – Lift the heaviest weight you can for three reps. This tests your leg and back strength.
- Standing Power Throw (SPT) – Throw a 10-pound medicine ball backward over your head as far as you can. This tests explosive power.
- Hand Release Push-Up (HRP) – Do as many push-ups as you can in two minutes, lifting your hands off the ground at the bottom of each rep. This tests upper body strength and endurance.
- Sprint-Drag-Carry (SDC) – A shuttle run where you sprint, drag a sled, carry kettlebells, and sprint again. This tests speed, agility, and total body strength. A faster time means a better score.
- Plank (PLK) – Hold a plank position for as long as you can up to 3 minutes and 40 seconds. This tests your core strength.
- Two-Mile Run (2MR) – Run two miles as fast as you can. This tests your cardio endurance, the aerobic fitness level measured by a VO2 max. A faster time means a better score.
How ACFT Scoring Works
Each event is scored from 0 to 100 points. Your AFT total adds up the five events for a maximum of 500 points; the legacy ACFT summed six for 600. There are different scoring standards based on your situation:
- Combat Standard (Gender-Neutral) – You need at least 60 points per event and 350 points total to pass.
- General Standard (Gender-Normed) – Scoring tables differ for males and females. Under the AFT general standard you need at least 60 points per event.3 Five events at 60 make 300 points.
- MOS Physical Demand Categories – Some Army jobs require higher scores. The legacy ACFT also had Heavy and Significant demand categories needing 440 total points with 65 or 70 points per event.
How to Use This Calculator
Pick the test (the AFT, or the legacy ACFT), your scoring standard and age group, and for the legacy ACFT the MOS demand category if it applies. Then enter your performance for each event using the sliders or number inputs. For timed events, enter minutes and seconds. The calculator instantly shows your points for each event, your total score, and whether you pass or fail. The chart and table at the bottom give you a clear breakdown of your results.
Beyond ACFT scoring, keeping track of your overall fitness metrics can help you train smarter. Soldiers must also meet the Army's body composition standard, which Army Directive 2026-13 set as a waist-to-height ratio below 0.55 in place of the old weight tables and tape test.2 The Army body fat page describes the earlier method.
