1 00:00:02,240 --> 00:00:05,450 in the early portion of 2000 and 21 2 00:00:05,460 --> 00:00:07,810 there was some initial short term fixes 3 00:00:07,810 --> 00:00:09,977 that we wanted to get out of the way . 4 00:00:09,977 --> 00:00:11,920 One was changing the 10 year age 5 00:00:11,920 --> 00:00:13,976 groupings of five year age groupings 6 00:00:13,976 --> 00:00:16,520 based on gender , male and female . We 7 00:00:16,520 --> 00:00:18,690 also stood down the body composition 8 00:00:18,690 --> 00:00:20,912 program formerly known as the abdominal 9 00:00:20,912 --> 00:00:23,023 circumference decoupled that from the 10 00:00:23,023 --> 00:00:25,780 test and then explored adding alternate 11 00:00:25,780 --> 00:00:28,860 components , all three extra areas of 12 00:00:28,860 --> 00:00:31,138 the of the physical fitness assessment . 13 00:00:31,138 --> 00:00:33,220 So the areas that we added into the 14 00:00:33,220 --> 00:00:35,331 remaining three components of the Air 15 00:00:35,331 --> 00:00:37,442 Force physical fitness assessment was 16 00:00:37,442 --> 00:00:39,442 adding an option for cardiovascular 17 00:00:39,442 --> 00:00:41,553 that comes in the form of a 20 m high 18 00:00:41,553 --> 00:00:43,720 aerobic multi shuttle run , Also known 19 00:00:43,720 --> 00:00:46,400 as the 20 m hammer for upper body 20 00:00:46,400 --> 00:00:48,400 strength . We've added a two minute 21 00:00:48,400 --> 00:00:52,090 hand release push up assessment for the 22 00:00:52,090 --> 00:00:54,650 setup component . We have added the 23 00:00:54,660 --> 00:00:57,340 cross leg , reverse crunch and also 24 00:00:57,340 --> 00:01:00,370 added a timed plank And those are the 25 00:01:00,370 --> 00:01:02,480 primary primary changes that will 26 00:01:02,480 --> 00:01:04,810 happen in early of 22 . Training has 27 00:01:04,810 --> 00:01:07,440 been deployed immediately . So across 28 00:01:07,440 --> 00:01:09,662 the total force we are training all the 29 00:01:09,662 --> 00:01:11,630 fitness assessment cells and the 30 00:01:11,630 --> 00:01:13,630 physical training leaders on how to 31 00:01:13,630 --> 00:01:15,880 execute and score all these new 32 00:01:15,880 --> 00:01:18,250 components . The guard , the reserve 33 00:01:18,340 --> 00:01:20,310 and the Ray Goff will all have the 34 00:01:20,310 --> 00:01:22,780 exact same options offered to them . Um 35 00:01:22,780 --> 00:01:25,002 there will be no difference in timing . 36 00:01:25,002 --> 00:01:26,710 It just essentially is adding 37 00:01:26,720 --> 00:01:28,920 additional components . Are airmen can 38 00:01:28,920 --> 00:01:31,087 choose from the timeline for testing . 39 00:01:31,087 --> 00:01:33,253 We are still staying with the hopes of 40 00:01:33,253 --> 00:01:35,198 getting everything out the door in 41 00:01:35,198 --> 00:01:37,850 early of 22 . Um we had multiple areas 42 00:01:37,850 --> 00:01:40,110 that had to come together in order to 43 00:01:40,110 --> 00:01:42,370 meet that timeline . One was the new 44 00:01:42,370 --> 00:01:45,670 fitness platform database . My fitness 45 00:01:45,680 --> 00:01:48,730 for that to be prepared and ready to 46 00:01:48,730 --> 00:01:50,952 accept the new components and for us to 47 00:01:50,952 --> 00:01:52,880 be able to have a repository to 48 00:01:52,880 --> 00:01:55,240 actually add those scoring systems in 49 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:56,851 there . The biggest thing is 50 00:01:56,851 --> 00:01:58,990 preparation . Uh I strongly encourage 51 00:01:59,000 --> 00:02:01,111 airmen to get out there . Take a look 52 00:02:01,111 --> 00:02:03,333 at them , download the videos , look at 53 00:02:03,333 --> 00:02:05,444 the verbal instructions , see some of 54 00:02:05,444 --> 00:02:07,556 the pictures , the pictures that that 55 00:02:07,556 --> 00:02:09,556 are put together in all the manuals 56 00:02:09,556 --> 00:02:11,667 start preparing today . These are not 57 00:02:11,667 --> 00:02:14,400 going to be extremely difficult changes 58 00:02:14,400 --> 00:02:16,511 to the Air Force fitness assessment , 59 00:02:16,511 --> 00:02:18,678 but you certainly will have a training 60 00:02:18,678 --> 00:02:19,760 curve that you're going to have to meet .
