New Air Force PT program:
The Air Force will begin implementing changes to the way we measure fitness beginning Jan. 1, but not in the way most of us expect.
Most recently, the CSAF approved biannual testing beginning Jan. 1; however, an Airman’s scores will be based on the current fitness assessment criteria. Airmen will continue to test under current fitness requirements and scoring (as defined in AFI 10-248) through July 1, 2010.
Members will be provided two scores during this time period: one under the current program and one under the new fitness standard. This hybrid implementation is to help Airmen gauge performance under the new testing standard before it counts. This implementation approach will afford Airmen the opportunity to see how they’ll fare under the new standard and hold Airmen accountable for their scores throughout the transition process.
