The Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT) is the official fitness assessment for active duty, TAR, and Selected Reserve Sailors. It measures muscular endurance and cardiovascular fitness through three standardized events. Scores are used for advancement eligibility, assignment screening, and overall career progression.
Under the 2026 Physical Readiness Program update, PFA failures prior to January 1, 2026 were reset to zero for career continuation purposes — giving Sailors a clean baseline. Cycle 2 for 2026 runs July 1 through December 31.
The 2026 Navy PRT consists of three events administered in a single session. All events are scored on a 0–100 scale, then averaged into one overall PRT score.
Individual event scores are averaged to produce the overall PRT category. The category tiers are:
| Category | Score Range | Career Impact |
|---|---|---|
| Outstanding | 90–100 | Exceeds all requirements; strongest for advancement boards |
| Excellent | 75–89.9 | Above standard; positive fitness report notation |
| Good | 60–74.9 | Above minimum; meets advancement requirements |
| Satisfactory | 50–59.9 | Minimum passing — must also pass each individual event |
| Probationary | 45–49.9 | Below standard; Fitness Enhancement Program (FIP) required |
| Failure | Below 45 | PRT failure; FIP required; career progression impacted |
Important: A passing overall average is not enough alone. You must also meet the minimum performance threshold in each individual event. An Sailor who excels at running but fails push-ups fails the entire PRT — even with a high average score.
Push-up minimums and run time maximums vary by age group and gender. The table below shows minimum passing (Satisfactory) standards per OPNAVINST 6110.1J. Higher performance earns more points toward Outstanding.
| Age Group | Male Push-Ups (min) | Female Push-Ups (min) | Male Run (max) | Female Run (max) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 17–19 | 42 | 19 | 12:15 | 14:30 |
| 20–24 | 44 | 28 | 12:15 | 14:45 |
| 25–29 | 40 | 25 | 12:45 | 15:15 |
| 30–34 | 36 | 20 | 13:15 | 15:45 |
| 35–39 | 30 | 16 | 13:45 | 16:15 |
| 40–44 | 24 | 13 | 14:15 | 17:15 |
| 45–49 | 20 | 11 | 14:45 | 18:15 |
| 50–54 | 15 | 10 | 15:15 | 19:00 |
| 55–59 | 11 | 8 | 16:00 | 20:00 |
| 60+ | 8 | 6 | 16:30 | 21:00 |

A longer plank comes from total core strength, not just practicing the plank. Add weighted planks (10–25 lb on your back), hollow-body holds, and dead bugs to your routine. Hanging knee raises also directly transfer to PRT plank performance.
Interval training outperforms steady-state jogging for improving your run time. Alternate 30-second hard efforts with 90-second easy jogging recovery periods. Two interval sessions per week combined with one easy aerobic run builds the cardiovascular base that produces faster 1.5-mile times.
