HILL AIR FORCE BASE, Utah -- Airmen at Hill Air Force Base resumed physical fitness testing July 1 after a break of more than a year due to COVID-19.

Testing was initially delayed from October 2020 to April 2021 to ensure the health and safety of Airmen during the COVID-19 pandemic and to ensure social distancing practices remained in place.

The testing resumed with only three components: push-ups, sit-ups and the 1.5-mile run. These changes come in addition to other modifications to the physical fitness assessment.

In December 2020, the waist measurement as a point-driven component of the fitness assessment test was removed.

Airmen can determine their next fitness assessment due date by visiting the Official Physical Assessment Due Date Matrix on myPers. Fitness assessment due dates will primarily depend on the date and score of the last official test.
