ACFT Calculator – Track Your Army Combat Fitness Test Scores
The Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT) is the official physical readiness assessment for soldiers. It evaluates endurance, strength, and overall fitness through six challenging events. With the ACFT Calculator, you can easily determine your performance score, compare results with official standards, and understand how your fitness level aligns with Army requirements.
This online tool simplifies calculations by converting your raw results into points, based on the official scoring chart. Whether you are preparing for basic training, active duty requirements, or retesting to improve your score, the calculator helps you stay informed and motivated.
What is the ACFT Calculator?
The Army Combat Fitness Test replaced the previous Army Physical Fitness Test to provide a more complete measurement of combat readiness. Instead of focusing only on push-ups, sit-ups, and a run, the ACFT challenges multiple aspects of fitness. The test is designed to reflect real-life physical demands that soldiers face during missions and training.
There are six events in the Army Promotion Points Calculator :
- 3-Repetition Maximum Deadlift (strength)
- Standing Power Throw (explosiveness)
- Hand Release Push-Ups (upper body endurance)
- Sprint-Drag-Carry (agility and stamina)
- Leg Tuck or Plank (core strength)
- 2-Mile Run (cardiovascular endurance)
How the ACFT Calculator Works
The ACFT score calculator allows you to enter your performance results in each event. The tool then converts them into points using the official Army standards. The final score is the sum of all six event scores, with a maximum of 600 points possible.
The calculator provides instant feedback, showing if your results meet the passing standards for your age and gender category. This makes it easier to identify strengths and weaknesses in your training routine.

| 2-Mile Run | 21:00 min | 100 pts |
Why Use an Online ACFT Calculator?
Using an online calculator saves time and ensures accuracy. Instead of manually checking charts, you can instantly see your points and total score. This is helpful not only for test preparation but also for tracking long-term progress in fitness training.
Additional benefits include:
- Quick feedback after practice sessions
- Customizable scoring for each event
- Understanding how close you are to maximum standards
