FITDAT®/Score Sets

Score Sets built on FITDAT

A Score Set takes FITDAT test definitions and applies its own scoring logic, component weights, and standards. FITDAT defines what was measured and how — the Score Set decides what it means. Below are four Score Sets that use FITDAT tests, from the REALFIT Absolute Score to widely recognized military and professional standards.

The test, the protocol, the unit, the normalization rule. Immutable facts.

Design principle. The REALFIT Absolute Score is population-neutral and age-neutral by design — the same score means the same thing regardless of who takes it. A 700 is a 700. This is intentional: REALFIT believes fitness data should be comparable across time, populations, and contexts. Score Sets that want age-normed or gender-normed interpretations can layer that on top as Reference Bands — the underlying score does not change.
Scoring curves, component weights, and aggregation logic are proprietary to REALFIT® and not published in FITDAT. The test definitions, protocols, and normalization rules are open — see the FITDAT library. Try the live scoring engine at REALFITSCORE.com.

AFT
U.S. Army · Effective June 1, 2025
Army Fitness Test (AFT)
The official physical fitness test for all U.S. Army soldiers, replacing the ACFT in June 2025. Five events scored 0–100 each. Minimum 60 per event required. Combat MOS soldiers need 350 total; general standard is 300.

Reality check. The AFT minimum bar is low by design — it represents the floor of military readiness, not fitness. A passing score of 300 (60 per event) requires roughly: 140 lb deadlift, 10 hand-release push-ups, a 3:00 sprint-drag-carry, a 1:30 plank, and a 17-minute 2-mile run. Fitness research suggests a significant portion of American civilians aged 18–35 cannot meet these minimums without training — particularly the 2-mile run and the deadlift. The AFT replaced the ACFT on June 1, 2025 — older ACFT scores remain valid for promotion until September 30, 2025.
The AFT uses 4 of 5 events that map to FITDAT tests. The Sprint-Drag-Carry (5×50m multi-task shuttle) and 2-Mile Run are not currently in the FITDAT library — both are candidates for future specification. Official AFT scoring tables: army.mil/aft

Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test (PFT)
Three-event annual fitness test for all Marines. Pull-ups (or push-ups), plank, and a 3-mile run. Perfect score is 300. Marines cannot score minimum standards and pass — "exceeding the standard is the standard."

Reality check. 20 pull-ups, a 3:45 plank, and an 18-minute 3-mile run is a genuinely elite level of fitness by civilian standards. Even the minimum passing standard — 3 pull-ups, a 1:03 plank, and a 28-minute 3-mile run — is beyond what most untrained adults can achieve. The Marine Corps deliberately sets its minimum above what the general population can do without preparation. The PFT is conducted annually between January and June; the CFT (Combat Fitness Test) is conducted July through December.
2 of 3 PFT events map directly to FITDAT tests (pull-ups, plank). The 3-mile run is a candidate for a future FITDAT specification. Official PFT standards: marines.com

Context. NFL Combine numbers are not "passing" standards — they are benchmarks scouts use relative to position expectations. An offensive lineman running a 5.10s 40 is fine; a wide receiver running 5.10s is likely not drafted. The fastest-ever 40 is Xavier Worthy's 4.21 seconds (2024). The average WR has run a 4.52s over the last 23 years of combine data. For context: most fit recreational athletes run a 40 between 5.0 and 6.5 seconds — putting them below the slowest OL in NFL history.
3 of 6 Combine events map to current FITDAT tests. Vertical jump and 3-cone drill are strong candidates for future FITDAT specification. The 5-10-5 shuttle uses the same agility construct as test_shuttle_60yd at a shorter distance. Official Combine results: nfl.com/combine
