Marines New Combat Fitness Test

Week of September 01, 2008

The Marine Corps Training and Education Command  launched a worldwide road show for Marines on the new Combat Fitness Test (CFT). In the next few months at installations around the globe, instructors from the Martial Arts Center of Excellence in Quantico, Va., will demonstrate how to conduct the CFT, which follows recent revisions to the Corps' physical fitness, body composition and military appearance programs. Results will not count toward performance evaluation until the CFT is officially implemented Oct. 1, 2009. A video of the CFT, layout diagrams and other materials can be found at the Marine Corps Training and Education Command website.

Get PFT ready with Military.com's Fitness Center.
