Navy PRT Calculator

The U.S. Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT) is the fitness portion of the Navy's Physical Fitness Assessment. It uses three events — a forearm plank, push-ups (2 minutes), and a 1.5-mile run (with a 2 km row or other cardio alternatives). Each event earns a performance category, and your overall result is a category such as Outstanding, Excellent, Good, Satisfactory, or Fail. This calculator estimates each event and your overall category.

The Three Events

• Forearm plank: Replaced the timed curl-up in 2021. Held for time; longer holds score higher.
• Push-ups: As many correct push-ups as possible in 2 minutes.
• Cardio: A 1.5-mile run, or an approved alternative such as a 2 km row on a Concept2 erg.

Performance Categories

Each event is graded against age- and sex-specific tables that map raw performance to a category. The overall PRT result reflects your weakest passing event, and any failed event fails the test.

Reference Anchors (Age 18–24)

Worked Example

A 22-year-old male holds a 2:00 plank (Good), does 55 push-ups (Excellent), and runs 1.5 miles in 11:00 (Good). His overall category is governed by his weakest passing event, landing at Good.

Why the Weakest Event Matters

Because the overall category follows your lowest event, balanced training pays off: a single weak event caps your overall result no matter how strong the others are.

Note: This calculator uses the 18–24 reference band anchored between the Satisfactory pass and Outstanding standards. Official OPNAV PRT tables differ by exact age group and update periodically. Treat this as a training estimate and confirm with your command fitness leader.
