Key Points:

• The US Army fitness test consists of three timed events: 2‑minute push‑ups (minimum 17 reps), 2‑minute sit‑ups (minimum 50 reps), and a 2‑mile run (must finish under 19 min 36 sec).
• Warm‑up and short rest periods (10‑20 min) are essential. The test’s structure of intense effort followed by recovery is a great example of high-intensity training.

• Partner support helps keep motivation—one person does the run while the other completes the other two events.
• Pacing: the run is about 8 laps on a standard 400 m track (≈2 mi). A steady pace around 9‑10 min per mile gets you under the 20‑minute cut‑off.
