- How much do you normally get done in 45 minutes? During the Ranger Physical Fitness Test, that's about how long Army Ranger candidates have to complete 49 push-ups, 59 sit-ups, a five-mile run and then six chin-ups. Get Guard fit: bit.ly/3dGgnyD
I'm a former JMSDF sailor. I've long admired being a US Army Ranger, and I voluntarily perform RPFT and Ruckmarch in my daily training. My current achievements are around 80 push-ups and sit-ups in 2 minutes, 20 pull-ups, and 35 minutes for a 5-mile Run. With a height of 170cm and a weight of 65kg, I succeeded in completing a 12-mile rucksack march in less than 3 hours with a 40lb rucksack and navy flight deck boots equipment.If I were an American, I would have wanted to volunteer as a Ranger in the United States Army.
I'm 178 cm and also 65 kg. For the 12 mile march I'm humping 50 lbs but I've gone up to 70 lbs thus far. Dont let height and weight get to you, train past those mental barriers. You got this brother
They accept foreign students, talk to your chain of command in your country
65 push ups 100 sit ups 21 pull ups (26 chin ups) bw 85 kg idk about 5 mile run but i can run 2 miles in under 16 min
Nice! Great job!
Based frog
But were those good form'? That's where Ranger School gets many who don't break the plane and lock out their arms. Failing to do so doesn't count.
@@jamalwilburn228 yes im not a cross fitter to flap like a fish, i do weighted chin ups thats how i got strong with it and it works abs as well, my weak point is pushing strainght
My PR: 65 strict chest to floor push ups, sit ups (undetermined), 36;28 5 mile run, 18 dead hang chin ups, 2;29;00 12 mile ruck march @ 50 lbs.
I feel I still have a long way to go, but it's a good start. I dont train sit ups because I'd rather do an actually effective core movement, but I probably should train them just for the assessment. RLTW 💪
^ I now have started to train situps as ive gotten closer. Started out at low 50s and now im up to 78.
bro i think thats more than good enough. But, push for the best. I want to reach your level!
@@OnufulSama A Ranger can never overprepare. Compared to the averages of the Regiment the times are nothing to scoff at.
I appreciate the kind words, but please do not aspire to my mediocre level. We all are capable of pushing much further.
Man, you could probably max it
SFC Goodman (the RI in this video) is an excellent soldier and a good man. Pay attention here.
All facts!! SGT will get you right!
I rather this then this new pt training test that there conducting now
Hell yeah
Shit my five mile is 45min first time I ever ran it. But at least my 2 mile was a 15:25 at 216lbs
I am willing but I will guarantee you alot complaints, tears, sweat, and sprain muscles.
Are you currently serving?
No. But I rather have my face in the dirt and have a real job in the US Army.
@@ognate1607 nice
@@nationalguard how do you guys help dudes train for a 5 mile run. I know you have to pass basic training first tho
^ dude above me: the way you get better at pushups is by doing pushups. The way you get better at doing situps is by doing situps. Etc. -- same with running. Just go out and run. The first day always sucks the most but make sure to recover, you can take a day off, then try again the following day. And pace yourself. Some days you might be slower. That's OK -- you just don't give up doing it altogether. Cuz keep this in mind: time is going to pass anyway. You might as well take that one hour a day (or every other day) to work on your body and your skills, learn running technique or even practice gripping a pullup bar for a minute. Small things like that. There are easier variations for things like pushups and pullups.
There was a time I really really struggled with pushups and pullups, so I worked on those weaknesses and gradually got better at them. If you're interested in joining the Army (including National Guard if you don't wanna do it full time, like me), try and get good at these exercises before going to Basic Training. If you're overweight, Basic Training will take care of that. But you might wanna do what you can to make your life easier before you go through that, cuz it's tough. And when you finish, you'll go "shit, that was easy. I could do that again."
Work on yourself. Do the bare minimum and you're already ahead of the curve. Do a run or a long walk. Try to do 3 sets of pushups or easier variations of them. For pullups, get some resistance bands to aid you in lifting yourself up. You can do it and you'll be shocked at what you can accomplish.
What happens if i get tired in middle of the 5 mile run and stop running?
They may disqualify you from the training or you may be advised to ensure you meet the time standard provided.
Ok thanks
What are the max standards for these? Or is it just pass/fail and anything extra is bonus?
theres no max standard for ranger school, they tell you to stop once you hit the requirement
53 was standard Army no
Is that the standard now for all the army 🤔
No, it isnt the standard for big army, nor is it for Rangers. Minimum is just a baseline, the standard exceeds the minimum.
What happen to the swim tests?
Is there a ruck March?
👍
Thank you for the support!
@@nationalguard *🙏🇺🇲🤝🇮🇩💙**#You**'re very welcome, Sir🇺🇲🤝🇮🇩💙🤝🙏*
@@nationalguard 🙏
The requirements are so low 😂
So 9 minute miles. I’d go kaput after mile 2
(Before boot camp rn)
You got this!
8 minute miles, but each mile is sub 8
Before basic, I barely ran 2 miles in 22 min and had to rest(walk) after each mile or so. Now I run 2 mile in 12 min and 5 miles under 39 min. You got this, just train and give your 100%.
@@999Mher yup I do 2 miles in 13:43 on my recent ACFT. And did around the same for five miles.
At 60, I can still max this out, they need to make it harder
New standard: if you show up with a face diaper, you lose your tab
Noice

Standards have gone to shit.
I'm 62 years old and can do that
That's awesome!
These are the minimum standards. You won’t make it to pre rasp if you only make it to these standards. You really should aim for double the minimum standards.
Rangers lead the way, just ask Pat Tillman, what a joke
Why do you guys show fat Ranger school instructors instead of REAL Rangers from the Regiment?
