Understanding the ACFT – Army Combat Fitness Test
The Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) stands as the contemporary standard for evaluating a soldier’s overall physical readiness and functional fitness, replacing the previous Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT). Comprising six events, including the standing power throw that involves a medicine ball, understanding the ACFT and its prerequisites is vital when determining the appropriate medicine ball weight for effective training.
