NEW 5 Year Chart Scoring Beginning JULY 2026
NEW 5 Year Chart Scoring Beginning JULY 2026
The new PFA reimplements the scored body composition component using the current Waist-to-Height Ratio program and introduces a two-mile run. Additionally, service members will be required to take the PFA every six months regardless of their score. The updated scored components, to include body composition, and increased testing frequency introduce a more challenging physical fitness assessment to better gauge the fitness of the force.
The updated PFA features a 100-point scoring system across four categories:
• Cardiorespiratory (50)
• Waist-to-Height Ratio (20)
• Muscle Strength (15)
• Muscle Core Endurance (15)
The latest version of the Air Force four-component PFA includes:
Cardiovascular: two-mile run or 20-meter HAMR every six months, which counts for 50 percent of the total score
Strength: One minute of push-ups or two minutes of hand-release push-ups. Hand-release push-ups require Airmen to lower their chest all the way to the ground and extend their hands out to the sides before pushing up again. This component counts for 15 percent of the total score.
Core: One minute of sit-ups, two minutes of cross-leg reverse crunches, or a timed forearm plank. This component measures muscle core endurance and counts for another 15 percent of the total score.
Body Composition: Waist-to-Height Ratio measurement that requires Airmen divide their waist length by their height in inches. For example, an Airman who stands 69 inches tall and has a waist of 36 inches would have a waist-to-height ratio of 0.52. This component counts for 20 percent of the total score.

Forearm Plank
Forearm Plank
Members will begin face down on the floor with elbows bent, forearms flat on the floor/mat, with the body in a straight line through the head, shoulders, back, buttocks and legs.
Forearm plank ends when maximum time for the forearm plank has elapsed or until the last participant stops prior to the maximum time allowed, any part of the body other than hands (fists/palms) forearms, or feet touch the floor, member lowers head to hands, member lifts hands, forearms or feet off the floor, member does not maintain 90 degrees at the elbow (i.e., shifting weight forward or back on forearms/toes decreasing or increasing the 90-degree bend).
If the member receives more than two corrections on form. The third correction will stop the assessment and the time will be recorded. This will be the official forearm plank time (score) of the member.
