            The purpose of this study was to develop normative values
            for Army Physical Fitness Test (APFT) events and to
            demonstrate the use of these normative values. Data,
            collected during the 1988 Active Army Physical Fitness
            Survey by the U.S. Army Physical Fitness School (USAPFS),
            were analyzed for this purpose. Subjects were 5346 male
            soldiers and 676 female soldiers from 14 Army
            installations in the United States. The APFT was
            administered by Master Fitness Trainers under the
            supervision of personnel from the USAPFS. Soldiers
Abstract    completed as many push-ups as possible in two minutes, as
            many sit-ups as possible in two minutes and performed a
            two-mile run for time. Data were separated into the age
            and gender categories on which the current APFT standards
            are based (17-21, 22-26, 27-31, 32-36, 37-41, 42-46,
            47-51, >52 years). Percentile distributions were
            calculated for each event. Percentiles for raw scores and
            APFT points are presented in Tables 4 to 18 and Tables 19
            to 33, respectively. Illustrative examples show how these
            norms can be used. Physical performance, Military
            personnel, Two-mile runs, Sit-ups, Push-ups, Physical
            fitness.
