What is a Navy PRT?
The Navy PRT Calculator estimates your score on the US Navy's Physical Readiness Test, the biannual fitness assessment required of every active-duty and reserve Sailor under OPNAVINST 6110 standards. The PRT evaluates three components, muscular endurance via push-ups, core endurance via curl-ups, and cardiovascular fitness via a timed 1.5-mile run, each scored on a 0-to-100 scale against tables that vary by age band and sex. This calculator lets you enter your sex, age, push-up count, curl-up count, and run time to get an instant estimate of your event scores and overall PRT score, along with the corresponding performance category (Outstanding, Excellent, Satisfactory, Probationary, or Failure).
Unlike general fitness scores, the Navy PRT has direct career consequences: it's a condition of continued service, and it factors into evaluations and promotion recommendations. Sailors preparing for an upcoming test cycle can use this tool to identify which event needs the most work before it counts. For a broader picture of body composition heading into PRT season, pair this with the BMI Calculator or Body Fat Calculator.
Why Use a Navy PRT Calculator?
Official PRT scoring tables are dense, split across ten age bands and two sex categories, and not always easy to read quickly. This calculator condenses those tables into an instant, per-event breakdown so you know exactly where you stand without cross-referencing a printed chart. It's especially useful during training cycles, run a quick check after each workout block to see whether your push-up or run improvements are actually moving your score.
It also helps with test-day strategy. If your curl-up score is already near 100 but your run is borderline Satisfactory, you know where to focus your remaining training weeks rather than spreading effort evenly across all three events.
Who Should Use This Calculator?
- Active-duty and reserve Sailors preparing for a semi-annual PRT cycle who want to track progress between official test dates.
- Command Fitness Leaders (CFLs) who need a quick reference tool while coaching Sailors through remediation or fitness enhancement programs.
- Officer and enlisted candidates preparing for accession programs (OCS, ROTC, enlisted boot camp) that use Navy-style fitness standards.
- Personal trainers and strength coaches working with military or aspiring-military clients who need to understand Navy-specific scoring benchmarks.
- Sailors returning from limited-duty or medical status who want to gauge readiness before their next official PRT.
Pairing this tool with the TDEE Calculator helps ensure training nutrition supports performance gains rather than working against them.
What Insights Does the Navy PRT Calculator Give You?
- Overall PRT Score, the primary result, averaged across all three events on a 0-to-100 scale, with a category label (Outstanding, Excellent, Satisfactory, Probationary, or Failure) so you know your standing at a glance.
- Push-up Score, your 2-minute push-up count converted to a 0-to-100 score using age-band and sex-specific standards.
- Curl-up Score, your 2-minute curl-up count converted the same way, reflecting core muscular endurance.
- Run Score, your 1.5-mile run time converted to a 0-to-100 score, with faster times earning higher marks.
Use the per-event breakdown to prioritize training time: an event scoring below 50 needs immediate attention since a single event failure counts as an overall PRT failure regardless of your average.
How to use this Navy PRT calculator
- Select your Sex (Male or Female), standards tables differ between the two.
- Enter your Age using the slider or number field; the calculator automatically applies the correct age band (17-19 through 60+).
- Enter your Push-ups completed in the standard 2-minute test.
- Enter your Curl-ups completed in the standard 2-minute test.
- Enter your 1.5-Mile Run Time in seconds (for example, a 12:00 run is 720 seconds).
- Review the Overall PRT Score card, which shows your category label and a per-event breakdown of push-up, curl-up, and run scores.
- Adjust any input to see scores update instantly, and use the breakdown to identify which event to prioritize in your next training block.

Formula & Methodology
Each event score is calculated by comparing your performance to age-band and sex-specific minimum (Satisfactory, 50 points) and maximum (Outstanding, 100 points) benchmarks: For push-ups and curl-ups (higher reps = higher score):If reps ≥ max: score = 100 If reps < min: score = (reps ÷ min) × 50 Otherwise: score = 50 + ((reps − min) ÷ (max − min)) × 50For the 1.5-mile run (lower time = higher score):If seconds ≤ fastest: score = 100 If seconds ≥ slowest: score = max(0, 50 − ((seconds − slowest) ÷ slowest) × 50) Otherwise: score = 50 + ((slowest − seconds) ÷ (slowest − fastest)) × 50The Overall PRT Score is the simple average of the three event scores:Overall Score = (Push-up Score + Curl-up Score + Run Score) ÷ 3Worked example: A 25-year-old male Sailor completes 55 push-ups, 60 curl-ups, and runs 1.5 miles in 12:00 (720 seconds). Against the 25-29 male standards (push-ups 42-84, curl-ups 47-92, run 590-800 seconds), this yields a push-up score around 65, a curl-up score around 64, and a run score around 65, for an overall PRT score near 65, placing the Sailor in the Satisfactory-to-Excellent range depending on rounding. The scoring bands used in this calculator are built from publicly documented Navy PRT standards and are intended as a close training estimate. Official record scores are determined by your command using the current OPNAVINST 6110 tables, which are periodically updated, always confirm your official score with your Command Fitness Leader.
