About

This is a free, mobile-friendly calculator for the United States Navy Physical Readiness Test (PRT). Scoring follows Physical Readiness Program Guide-5A (December 2025), the scoring standard issued under the reissued Navy Physical Readiness Program (OPNAVINST 6110.1L, announced by NAVADMIN 264/25) and effective for the Calendar Year 2026 assessment cycles.

It scores all published PRT events: push-ups (2 minutes), forearm plank, and your choice of cardio — 1.5-mile run, 2,000-meter row, 500-yard swim, or 450-meter swim — with both the sea-level tables (Table 4-1) and the above-5,000-feet altitude tables (Table 4-2).

The "What I Need On" feature is the part most online calculators don't have: given any two events, it back-calculates the raw performance you need on the third so your overall average hits Pass, Good, Excellent, Outstanding, or a perfect 100. Useful for planning training cycles or knowing your run target before stepping on the line.

The page is mobile-ready and works offline once loaded. Save it to your phone's home screen and it opens like an app (quick instructions below) — your inputs save between sessions.

FAQ

What scoring standard does this use?

PRP Guide-5A (December 2025), Tables 4-1 and 4-2 — the PRT standards issued with the reissued Physical Readiness Program (OPNAVINST 6110.1L) and effective for CY2026. NAVADMIN 264/25 announced the CY2026 cycles: Cycle-1 runs 1 January – 30 June and Cycle-2 runs 1 July – 31 December 2026.

How does PRT scoring work?

Each event maps your performance to one of 12 point rows — 45, 50, 55 … 100 in 5-point steps — each with a category level: Outstanding (High/Medium/Low), Excellent (H/M/L), Good (H/M/L), Satisfactory (High/Medium), and Probationary (45, the minimum to pass). Your overall PRT score is the average of the three event scores. Scoring below the Probationary row on any single event is a PRT failure.

What happens if I score Probationary on an event?

You still pass: PRP Guide-1 (Aug 2026) says the PRT is passed when a Sailor scores Probationary or above in every event they are medically cleared for. But a Probationary score on any one event means enrollment in the Fitness Enhancement Program (FEP) until you pass an official PFA with Good-Low (60 points) or better in every event.

How does this calculator round between rows?

Performance must meet or exceed a row's standard to earn that row's points — e.g. if 8:30 is worth 100 and 9:00 is worth 95, an 8:45 run scores 95, not 100. Guide-5A doesn't spell this rule out explicitly, but meet-or-exceed (round down) is the consensus used across Navy PFA calculators and matches how the tables are administered.

What are the overall categories?

This calculator bands your overall average as Outstanding (90–100), Excellent (75–89), Good (60–74), Satisfactory (50–59), and Probationary (45–49). Guide-5A defines the High/Medium/Low levels per event row but doesn't publish an official mapping from the overall average back to a High/Medium/Low level, so this banding is the common convention. Your official category of record comes from PRIMS.

How are altitude scores calculated?

For commands above 5,000 feet, Guide-5A publishes a separate standards table (Table 4-2). Only the cardio columns change — run, row, and both swims get slower time allowances — while push-up and plank standards are identical to sea level. Toggle "> 5,000 ft" at the top of the page to switch.

Is there a maximum plank time?

The longest plank the tables credit is 3:24 (males) and 3:14 (females) — the Outstanding High times for the youngest age group. Each age group has its own 100-point time; holding longer than your bracket's Outstanding High time still scores 100.

What about the stationary bike?

The 12-minute stationary bike is an authorized alternate-cardio modality, but its scoring is machine-calibrated and the Navy does not publish bike scoring tables in Guide-5A, so this calculator can't support it. If you test on the bike, your score comes from PRIMS.

Does the treadmill count as the run?

Yes. The 1.5-mile treadmill test (at the prescribed settings in Guide-5A) is scored against the same 1.5-mile run column — enter your treadmill time under Run.

What about the BCA?

The full Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) is the Body Composition Assessment (BCA) plus the PRT. Under the updated program the BCA is a two-step process — a waist-to-height ratio screen, then a body-fat estimate for those who exceed it. This calculator covers the PRT only. Sailors outside BCA standards may qualify for the high-performance BCA exemption with exceptional PRT performance — PRP Guide-1 (Aug 2026) sets it at an overall Outstanding-Low or higher with all three PRT events scored no lower than Excellent-Medium (80 points). The BCA is still recorded as not within standards, and the Sailor still takes part in the Fitness Enhancement Program.

Does it work offline?

Yes. The entire calculator is a single self-contained page — no servers, no API calls. Once loaded, it runs entirely on your device. Save it to your phone's home screen to launch it like an app — see the “Add to Your Phone's Home Screen” section below.

Where's the data stored?

Locally, in your browser's storage. Your sex, age, altitude setting, and event entries persist between sessions on the same device. Nothing is sent anywhere. Clearing your browser data will reset it.

Can I report a bug or suggest a feature?

Yes — contact@militaryptcalc.com
