IMHO, it is a much better gauge of physical fitness than the APFT.

SWC NCO Academy does this in lieu of some type of Strong man Compitetion. The reason and why changes with each new Command there along with instructors. But If you're going to SLC (ANCOC) best look at this test along with your DL stuff.
I too feel it is a great test.. It is a much better gauge of physical fitness than the APFT. But takes forever to take so for Conventional Units I can't see them doing it.
It's typically used by OTHER Units as there APFT.
Current APFT or which ever one they are calling it now is a joke. Never test your physical fitness, just a OER bullet for Commanders.
