The Special Operations Fitness Test is made in honor of the quiet professionals and elite members of the Special Operations community who train like professional athletes and who put their lives on the line as they engage and defeat the enemies of freedom all over the world by land, sea & air.
The Special Operations Fitness Test will give you a glimpse of what it takes to make it in the prestigious tribe of the best of the best.
I highly recommend that you only attempt this fitness test if you are already in great shape and only if you have mitigated the risks associated with such an extreme fitness test.
Do it for fun. Do it with friends. Or do it to see if you have what it takes.
All proceeds from this KZfaq video will be donated to the Special Operations Warrior Foundation: specialops.org/

I added the message "only run during higher priority missions / training events" into the video because I think it is best for your knees and back to ruck during your individual training ... but to run when you have a no fail training event or mission that is time sensitive. If you always run then you are going to beat yourself down. And since this is a pass/ fail event and the recommended time is 3 hours... there is no need to run.

@Nuff In from a sport educational view that’s the most wrong thing you could do. This workout could be a Weekly stresstest but not as averaged training. It’s an completely overdose on all parts of training from strength, endurance, flexibility, cardiovascular till balance. Alternating Training to get a higher pace is ok. But for progression workouts you should never go over the 40min. After that your cortisol level rise and prolong your recovery timing. You could do 2 PTs a day with an stable recovery timeline between. Or train 4-6 times a week and doing all 3 weeks an recovery week to stay healthy. Day 1,3,5: I do medium Full Body workouts Day 2,4 cardio ( running, sprinting, agility stuff) 2 times a week fighting sports mostly/ day2 and 6

These are great numbers but speaking from experience, you have to raise the crunch numbers and distance for your runs. The standard for maxing out Marine PFT crunches is 115 in 2 minutes and finishing the 3 miles in 18 minutes or less. Anything less than a 20 minute 3 mile is going to make you stand out out to the MARSOC recruiters. During MCT/ITB, there will always be a recon recruiter who approaches your platoon and during your MOS School, a MARSOC recruiter will approach you. The option to join will only be given to Active Duty Marines so make sure you take the right contract.

I always wanted to join the Special forces, it's one branch equivalent to Seals, (not from America.) I ended up in the regular infantry, but I kept training like I wanted to be ready for the Special forces, in the end, I ended up having the highest distinction from all the other soldiers, I was even asked by the officers how come I didn't join the Special forces, when I told them what happened and failed the graduation training, they kept their mouths shut and just told me congratulations for even trying, I'm a civilian now, in my 27 years if age, And I still train with running, push ups, pull ups, sit ups and swimming, always outside in the wilderness, and often I go hiking and sometimes trekking with my 2 best friends, one whom I served with and he was my sergeant. Never stop training gentlemen, even after you become a civilian.

@Leatherneck1057 3 жыл бұрын

In the Marine Corps, we were required to execute 20 pull ups, 80 sit-ups and a timed 3 mile run. I don’t know why push-ups weren’t required, as it is an excellent exercise and indicator of upper body strength. In boot camp, the swim qualification didn’t necessarily determine how strong of a swimmer you were, just not drowning was the goal and it wasn’t easy treading water with a uniform on. Swimming wasn’t a part of the PFT in the fleet after boot camp, though being an amphibious unit it probably should have. It depends on the unit but 10-15 mile forced marches with full gear (I was an M-60 machine gunner) was common for us. To become MEU/SOC qualified before our Mediterranean deployment, we were force marched 25 miles in full gear and then did about 15 in the hills of France. I was in great shape in those days and can still do 80 push-ups now but these jobs are for the young and I appreciate each and every one of them. I proudly thank everyone who served.

I believe ours is ''non'' SF unit 2600 meters in 12 min most will get close to 3k or over Obstacle course with helmet and plate carrier and rifle 40 push-sit '' most guys would get 60-80 standard 3 km speed march 15 km march within set time with 25 kg i believe and then a course you have to move weights back and forth on a timer. That's the fit test every year , and when you're in training after that you're going out in the field. most of these requirements would be easily made by regular troops from the unit I was in, we just don't swim

Interesting, how times have changed. RIP is now RASP. APFT is back and forth with Combat Fitness Test. Seeing this video gives me Motivation to get back up to a good standard, no matter what your employer, capacity, and/or occupational specialty code is. I'm going to set this as my primary fitness goal to achieve for 2024, especially if I decide to re-up with an age-waiver. Pre-Corona, I was in 195-200lbs fighting weight, training BJJ, rowing, climbing/mountaineering in both Alpine and sub-Alpine conditions... Then Corona Plandemic hit, and I began drinking heavily, eating poorly, and unable to burn off all those dead calories from drinking to excess. Then I had a hernia surgery. Pre-Plandemic, I could meet those standards, no question, breaking 20 pull-ups, 25 if going until failure. Dips 32, 5:56 1mile time and a 12:20 two mile, and all sorts of calisthenics and BJJ drills. Push ups, sit ups, not how many; rather, how long do you want me to go for... Now, not so agile, nor lean, nor have anywhere near pre-plandemic endurance and/or expolsive strength. I've got to shed some beer and milkfat weight, I've already began an intermittent-fasting, calorie-deficient diet. 30 days in, ten lbs down already, many more to go. Great video.

Most of my groups failure was in the swimming in fatigues and boots. The pullups I think I struggled but passed. I ran the mile in 5:20 and we did a 10 mile run in 90 minutes. I could do 130 situps and 100 pushups total, I met the time limit. We also did monkee bars 90 was max and I did 114 with a lot of practice, I pased the inverted low crawl maxed it but it took a lot of practice .,,.. READ THE REQUIRMENTS TO YOURSELF "OUT LOUD" and each word is important. "touch" is not the same as "grab" and that was killing me in the monkee bars (grabbing is was 40 bars in one minute, touching I hit 114 in one minutes, fail vs excell ). My assignment as Special Forces A Team Medic was so important to me, and I was pround to stand with my Team. D.O.L.

Aim to run the desired mile pace for 20mins (e.g. 15kmh), for confidence and ability. I recommend adding 20min tempo runs 2x a week. If you want to quit at 10mins that's a good sign. Find out what constant speed you can do and just add .1, or .2 kmh each run: that way, unless you're having an off day, you know you can do the next run as you could do the last. It's just a matter of putting in the same effort each run. Maybe use a treadmill to maintain pace for these runs. Come the last minute or 30s up the pace to a sprint. Bear in mind: you can run as long as you want but if you don't do speed running you won't get faster. You could also do 1x or 2x 20mins intervals a week e.g. 2mins@12kmh > 1min@18kmh (find your speed). Each week remove 10s from rest speed, or add 10s to sprint; or do both. I personally consider the 20min run the shortest for fitness improvement; ideal for speed endurance; and short so convenient and not boring. You can also do them on consecutive days because your legs won't be so battered; which means you can be flexible with them in your programme too (e.g. 2 days on, 2days off etc). Try it for a month, see why happens.

I've already surpassed these requirements except for the 1000 meter swim and the 12 mile ruck

@daleastiles 8 ай бұрын

Back in the day... 100 pushups, 100 sit ups, 10 pull ups, 2 miles in 10:15. I was never tested on swim and the evening of our 25 mile ruck, I was called back to base camp. From there, I left the Army and transferred to the Navy. I worked on radar and tactical data computers and got out of shape. Now I'm 55... Maybe if I did 1/3 of this... that would be good for my age.

Do a “What is Marine Force Recon?” Video. FORECON plays a big role in the marines and is also counted as a SOF, or you can do a “How hard is BRC/ Basic Reconnaissance Course” video

Rucking and swimming have been the hardest to train for me. Rucking I can do for the distance but definitely being short I have to shuffle more than I’d like to achieve the times. Swimming I am just bad at and need practice lol

This is pretty fun, I’m about 14 and I can do all these these except the 12 mile runk which I still haven’t done

@silvadossantos6803 3 жыл бұрын

Push ups 108(18x6 perfect form or at least 72 straight) Sit ups (no problem, but for training I'm rather do the full motion version ) 15 USMC pull ups (12 in perfect form, 15 cross fit like) 1 mile run (no problem, but I'm no bolt) 12 ruck(to reach slum home from the tech institute from the crackland I had to walk all nite, at least 8km to go and to return; my way to cope was to "play LRRP-recondo" I put a +20kg stone in my BP and stalk through the night, police saw me only twice and I've managed to go from 3 hours to 1:30 for it) Swim( no dice, rivers are polluted, live away from ocean, don't have like close and public pools aren't a factual reality, so it a part I have to come up with..).

I can do everything required at age 35 for the exception of swimming lol I swim like a rock. I love the water and getting in pools, rivers and lakes but never learned how to swim, it sucks but nice to know I can complete the other PT requirements for SF

I want to train up and actually attempt this all in one go. But I want to put my starting point here now. I can do the 80 push-ups in two minutes but it’s a struggle. The sit ups I can do about 70 in two minutes. Pull-ups I can easily do 15 in a set. My max right now is around 21. For the mile run I can do a 6:30 in a good day. But I can run a 7 consistently. For the swim I’ve never done a 1000m but my last 500m time was about 12 minutes. And the ruck. I don’t usually time but I know I can hike that distance with more weight. So I am excited to actually train to complete all these standards. Just a random marine btw I’m not in a combat job

I just turned 47 and I just started working on getting in shape in 9 months ago. Ignored my health for the last 2+ decades. So far I've lost 40 lbs and put on a little muscle. I've done mostly trail running and a little bit of weight lifting at the gym. Despite running 13 miles up a mountain a week, I would be lucky to get a 9-minute mile on flat terrain. I'm at just under 20 pushups, probably the same for crunches. It would be nice if I could some day get fit enough to pass one of these tests, that would be my end goal, but man I put a good 15 hours a week into this for the last 9 months and am only at where I'm at. No way forward but to keep going, but wondering if I am just horribly slow at making gains or if this is just how it is.

You’re down 40lbs. You’ll get there. Increase the volume of work. Run the last 1/2 mile a little harder until your thighs go numb. KEEP GOING.

@commotiocordis1037 8 ай бұрын

You're coming back from 2+ decades of inaction, to be where you are at after only 9 months is phenomenal, most people in your age bracket would use that as an excuse to add a few more decades of inaction. Keep at it and you WILL get there, don't neglect rest and recovery, if you push yourself too far hoping to get there faster and get injured, that's further from your goals not closer. You can do it.

This I think I can do. I currently can do 70 pushups in 1 minute. 58 sit ups in 1 minute. 17 pull ups. I can swim but I haven't done distance swimming. The only thing I really hate is running. But on average I can do less than 8 minutes, a good 7:30 to be precise.

In the selection process... I had to complete 5km run in 20 minutes, 40 pushups in 1 minute , 14 chin ups in 2minutes , 80 situps in 2 minutes and 5 meter shuttle 17 times in 1 minutes... The toughest part of the training was the 36 hours stress face without sleep... Had to run 100kms with 17kgs of load . I barely survived the training .

This test whooped my ass stupid. I thought that my 48 yr old ass could hang ( kinda re living my army days) I passed the push ups, sit ups, failed everything else. The run I did in 7:45 10 pull ups, 1000 m swim in 1hr 3 min. 12 miles in 3hr 15 min. I spent the entire morning kicking my own ass and spent 3 days crying like a girl because of how sore I was. This test is NOT for the average joe. I'm definitely a chair borne ranger now.
