A tool designed to compute a service member’s performance during the United States Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT), quantifies results based on age, gender, and performance in specific exercises. For instance, an individual entering their push-up, sit-up, and run times or repetitions into such a tool receives an overall score, potentially including a body composition assessment.
The utility of this computation lies in its ability to provide an objective measure of physical fitness, contributing to readiness assessment and career progression. Historical application ensured standardization across the Navy’s fitness evaluation, supporting informed decision-making regarding individual and unit readiness.
