PT Testing Information For All New CF Members Headed to BMQ or IAP/BOTP

[kingyyz]

There is still a physical test on the day of your Aptitude test, right?

Reserves yes. Regular force no.

You're kidding! You don't have to prove you can do 19 pushups, 19 situps, the pullups, and the run prior to BMQ??

Just yesterday I actually postponed by appointment to physically prepare even more.

As was stated; Reservists do, as they do not have the resources to conduct that testing.

Do the people going Regular Force no longer have to worry about it?  Not very likely.  They are tested as soon as they arrive in St Jean/Borden and if they fail the test they are put on Remedial PT and NOT Crse Loaded on BMQ until they do pass.

Good info on that old thread but it is all changing once again effective 1 Apr 09. There will still be a WFT Platoon but there will also be a min threshold to meet to even get there. It's pretty low, I think 2 pushups for females and 4 for males, but if you can't meet the new min threshold then you RTM on day one. I would also add that another new policy change for 1  Apr is the "no VR before week 5" rule.

I was just briefed on the changes last week, as soon as I find a link I will action asap. All applicants are now being counselled on the changes and they have been incorporated on the new enrolment documents. More to follow.....

So in order to stop all the bafflegab, what ifs and rumour that surround this sort of thing, we'll put a temp lock on it. When something OFFICIAL is published and it can be linked to or pasted, the person with the info can contact a mod to open the thread.
