I'll keep this post to the clear and concise.
I just finished the APFT today.
I scored 297.
PU 97 SU 80 2MR 13:12 Pullups 19 (palms away).
By far my best scores, I'm still going to work as hard as I can everyday to achieve a 300+ .

Good job young buck!

Make sure they are TO STANDARD.... nothing worse than doing a hundred something push-ups just to have the Drill tell you that only a quarter of them actually counted.

Your run time is ok, but it needs to get faster, you're only a little faster than I am at 34. Run faster today than yesterday....but slower than tomorrow. Also make sure that when you do the pull ups you are not swinging and going to full extension on the way down before going back up.

Other than that... good job... never quit.

Good job, young buck...keep it up!

Who graded your test?

[Glocky45]

P-Chop, a fellow DEP graded this test, But to give some background information a 11B from the 82nd Airborne graded my last APFT and I got a 292, also he was checking my form very closely. My Ranger mentor has coached me a lot on proper form, and I always practice proper form during daily pt.

This is the new normal. Now strive for excellence.

Well done - hope your "Grader" was being a D**K grading you!

FYI - take a look at these drills if you haven't already - part of the new Army Physical Readiness Training (PRT) you'll be doing

Focus on CD1 and CD2 - good luck Airborne!

Good job dude, are those dead hang pull ups or those gay kipping crossfit ones? 30:60s and 60:120s are one of the easiest ways to lower your run times.

[Glocky45]

Roger. And I'm assuming your in the 3rd SFG (A) , or the 82nd but I'm more inclined to think the first one. So for the matter of my addressing you formally. SF erikwithak86, Honestly the first 15 are dead hang then the last few are along the lines of kipping. And thanks for the advice also.

[Jeff82]

Quit that kipping BS. That's cheating. You want to get the last little burn have someone lift you back to the up position and then try to stop your downward fall. Repeat.

But "kipping" looks and is gay. It's using momentum to move your body up not muscle strength.

(ETA: You assume wrong. Check out erik's profile then do some google searching and you'll figure out who he's with. Not being hard on ya, just gotta learn to use the resources you have on hand.)

Roger that Sergeant, but when I click on a profile it gives me this
