Physical Fitness Training and Performance at Air Force Basic Military Training in 2021.

Summary: Have you ever wondered how hard Air Force boot camp really is? In 2021, only 41% of new recruits could pass the fitness test on their first day! But don't worry, the training works. By week five, 93% of them passed. Still, a small number of people couldn't pass and had to stay longer or leave the military completely. This cost the Air Force over 12 million dollars. The study also found that women had a harder time passing than men. This shows why the military needs to keep tracking fitness to help everyone succeed.
