2 Overview Current Program Perceived Need for Changed Recent Developments Summary Questions

Develop America's Airmen Today... for Tomorrow 3 Current Program When and Why it Started Ergometry Cycle Test January 1, 2004 The Air Force Fitness Program is established –Goal: to create a fit to fight culture Tests four areas: aerobic, push-ups, crunches, and body composition. Each area measured by a different event –Aerobic- 1.5-mile run, or ergo-cycle test (for medical) –Push-ups- one-minute push-up test –Crunches- one-minute crunch test –Body composition- abdominal circumference, or Body Mass Index measurement (as of 2005)

Develop America's Airmen Today... for Tomorrow 4 Current Program Measuring Physical Fitness Each component has a scale that awards points based on the number of repetitions, time, or measurement Each component of the test holds a maximum value of points Aerobic- 50 Body composition-30 Push-ups- 10 Crunches- 10

Develop America's Airmen Today... for Tomorrow 5 Perceived Need For Change Changes sought by many to make program tougher, and more fair 97% of airmen pass the test 55% are overweight and 12% are obese Grading Scale Issues Scores and scales geared toward inflating statistics of the airmen who are in shape Lower scores receive inflated points –ex. For males under 25 - push-ups »62 = 10 pts. »19= 7 pts. »30% of 62 =19 »70% of 10=7
