Navy Seal Fitness Challenge

The PST is a general indicator of whether you have the baseline fitness necessary to complete the demanding SEAL training program (BUD/S).

The standards that must be achieved to enter BUD/S include the following:

  • 500-yard swim (using sidestroke or breaststroke) under 12 ½ minutes
  • 42 Push-Ups in 2 minutes
  • 50 Sit-Ups in 2 minutes
  • 6 Pull-Ups no time limit
  • 1.5 Mile Run under 11 minutes

The elevated SEAL standards for the PST, which statistically gives the candidate a much greater chance of completing BUD/S, include the following:

  • 500-yard swim (using sidestroke or breaststroke) under 10 minutes
  • 80 Push-Ups (in 2 minutes)
  • 80 Sit-Ups (in 2 minutes)
  • 11 Pull-Ups (no time limit)
  • 1.5 Mile Run under 10 minutes
