233D RTI PHYSICAL FITNESS GUIDELINES
All soldiers are still expected to meet height and weight standards IAW AR600-9 and the physical
fitness standards of AR 350-1. However, the Army's policy concerning the Army Physical Fitness Test
(APFT) and height weight standards applicable to institutional training (AR 350-1, Paragraph 3-9) is
amended to reflect the following:
1. As an end-of-course graduation requirement, Soldiers attending institutional training courses, in
either PCS or TDY status, will be administered the APFT and screened for compliance with AR 600-9
standards. Ref. DA Memo dated 10 August 2006.
a. Soldiers who meet academic course requirements, but fail APFT standards will be considered an
academic course graduate and receive a DA Form 1059 with item 13.c. marked, "Marginally
achieved course standards," and item 16 containing the statement, "13.c: Soldier met academic
requirements, but failed to meet APFT standards IAW AR 350-1 during the course." This DA Form
1059 along with the Soldier's Diploma will be held at the institution until the Soldier's O5 level
commander (LTC for officer/warrant officer, CSM for NCO/enlisted) verifies the Army standard is
met. The Soldier's command will then submit to the respective school, supporting documents for
meeting the APFT standards, at which time the school will issue the Soldier's DA Form 1059 as
stated above and diploma.
b. Soldiers who meet academic course requirements, but fail body fat compositions standards will
be considered an academic course graduate and receive a DA Form 1059 with item 13.c. marked,
"Marginally achieved course standards," and item 16 containing the statement, "13.c: Soldier met
academic requirements, but failed to meet body fat composition standards IAW AR 600-9 during the
course." This DA Form 1059 along with the Soldier's Diploma will be held at the institution until
the Soldier's O5 level commander (LTC for officer/warrant officer, CSM for NCO/enlisted) verifies
the Army standard is met. The Soldier's command will then submit to the respective school,
supporting documents for meeting the body fat composition standards, at which time the school will
issue the Soldier's DA Form 1059 as stated above and diploma.
c. Soldiers who meet academic course requirements, but fail to meet body fat compositions and
APFT standards will be considered an academic course graduate and receive a DA Form 1059 with
item 13.c. marked, "Marginally achieved course standards," and item 16 containing the statement,
"13.c: Soldier met academic requirements, but failed to meet APFT standards IAW 350-1 and body
fat composition standards IAW AR 600-9 during the course." This DA Form 1059 along with the
Soldier's Diploma will be held at the institution until the Soldier's O5 level commander (LTC for
officer/warrant officer, CSM for NCO/enlisted) verifies the Army standard is met. The Soldier's
command will then submit to the respective school, supporting documents for meeting the body fat
composition and APFT standards, at which time the school will issue the Soldier's DA Form 1059 as
stated above and diploma.
2. Soldiers flagged for weight control and/or APFT will remain blocked from scheduling, selection, or
attendance to military schooling IAW AR 600-8-2. Once Soldiers overcome their flagging action, they
will be considered eligible for institutional training courses again.
3. Although soldiers attending institutional training must meet the height and weight standards IAW
AR 600-9 and the physical fitness standards of AR 350-1, failing to meet those standards will not result
in being removed from the course. Instead, Soldiers will continue to receive training and their DA Form
1059 will reflect their deficiencies as specified in paragraph 3. The Commandant will process a
Memorandum for Record to the Soldier's command outlining deficiencies. Unit commanders will have
three months from the course graduation date to ensure the Soldier has corrected the deficiencies. The
Commandant will forward memorandums to the gaining command of soldier in a TDY en route status.
If a soldier fails to meet standards at the end of three months, comments in the DA Form 1059, block 16,
will make note of repetitive failure to meet standards.
BNCOC Common Core
1. IAW DA Memo dated 10 Aug 06, “3(a); as an end of course requirement, Soldiers attending
institutional training courses in either PCS or TDY status, will be administered the APFT and
screened with AR 600-9 standards.”
2. The Intent of the mentioned Paragraph in the referenced DA Memo above is to change the APFT
and the AR 600-9 standards, to an end of course graduation requirement. BNCOC Phase1 Common
Core is a phase completion and not the end of course. The technical phase(s) are the end of course.
3. BNCOC CMP Pg 1-6 states “APFT requirements for BNCOC common core Phase training, as
outlined in 350-1 is suspended. With guidance as outlined in the above mentioned memo, both the
APFT and 600-9 requirement will shift to the technical phase training as a graduation requirement.
4. Soldiers attending BNCOC phase 1 with no follow on technical phase available, will be required to
take the APFT, and or HT/WT at completion of Common Core since the phase 1 represents the end
of course.
