Does anyone know the order of the PFT? I’ve been doing mock ones too but will randomly pick the order of the three

I've seen it's Pushups --> Situps, but im not sure where the 1.5mile run comes in (before/after). Also unsure if the time limit on the pushups and situps is 1.5min or 2min. I just know you have a partner judging your reps.

It's a two-minute time limit. I've read that it's sit-ups then push-ups - who knows?

That order shouldn't affect performance. Its the running that can throw a wrench in things. My pushups fall off after a run for sure.

It’s defonitely a 2 minutes time limit. If you go on the navy website somewhere you can find the criteria and the scores of what you achieve.

According to the 2016 guide (not sure if it has changed since then) it's 2 minutes for curl-ups, 2 minutes for push-ups, and then the run in that order. You get minimum 2 minutes of rest between exercises.

Here are some links I've been referencing:

What I've been doing for push ups is to do 3 sets of a certain number. So like I started with 3 sets of 20 or 25, and then gradually add 5 or 10 to that number. Your max will come up pretty quickly!

Also I'll do Farlek type runs where every half mile or so I do a larger set, like 30 or 40 push ups. Hopefully that will help past the IST and into the rest of training.

That’s a great routine for push-ups. Something similar I do is take 10-15 minutes in the morning when you wake up and do 100 push ups in as few sets as possible. The goal is to eventually do it in 1 set.
