September 23, 20187 yr I am a pilot select waiting to go to OTS and am wanting to prepare for UPT as much as possible. I am currently working out preparing for OTS but was wondering at the beginning of UPT if I'm wanting to go fighter/bomber do I have to lift a certain amount of weight to qualify? Currently I'm not lifting heavy but will start if I need to qualify
September 23, 20187 yr https://www.baseops.net/militarypilot/physicalfitness.html If you know where your local gym is, you're fine. You don't need to change your routine to pass the FACT.
September 24, 20187 yr ^What this person said. I will say that doing a basic workout 2-3 per week helps a lot, there is a component to the g's but really it helps clear your nugget and help keep off the weight of energy drinks and popcorn.
September 24, 20187 yr As far as I can tell, the FACT isn't pass-fail anymore. We still took it, and maybe because I'm auto T-1 tracked (Reserve) I missed the memo, but I didn't hear of anyone "failing" or not being allowed to track -38s. Maybe it's behind the scenes consideration for track select?
