Gritty Soldier

Here we go again… (but this time… it looks serious) 🧐

**Make sure to SHARE this far and wide to keep as many informed as possible. Information is power people!!! 🤜 🤛

Looks like the new RPFT is sitting at a 80% solution, good enough for army work.

Class 006-25, 21 April 2025, is slated for the first run. It will still be considered in “testing phase,” as ARTB will still make tweaks as necessary to get this new test right.

But, as it stands now, the test looks good, and totally doable with the proper preparation.

My advice, if you’re in this class or beyond, run through this new test a few times, to standard, to ensure you’re good to go.

We will make minor adjustments to the 13-Week Ranger School Fitness Program. But, I can tell you now, not much will need to change. If you’ve been using that plan to prepare, I’m confident you’ll be able to crush this test.

But again, run through it so you’ve gone through the motions before and to build your own confidence. Don’t be lazy!

What are your thoughts on this new test?

This seems terrific and for non ranger units this might be a fun challenge that you can use to reward soldiers. Example: If one person in platoon passes everyone gets to leave early Friday.

I’m slotted for 8 June class. I guess this is my new workout routine. By the way, I want you to know that your videos are a massive part of my doing this. I direct commissioned into the army and fought hard to get a slot to ranger school and now I have one. I was a civilian 2 years ago. Thank you for your motivation and insights. And workout programs and videos.

Event 2 and 3 are easy as hell. Event one would be harder but do-able

I misread the 66" as 66' and thought y'all were running up and down the steps of a Mayan ruin.

Shoes in hand? I'm hoping you get to drop them off in formation or something beforehand 😂

Does this new PT test affect RASP, or just school?
