I agree. I'm a bigger dude. 6'1'' and 218 lbs and I do about a 3 month prep period for each PT test with a real strict 1 month diet rolling in to make sure I can get the waist points. Pushups, situps, 1.5 mile run and amazingly a lot of people of all shapes and sizes still fail. Such would be the case with any assessment. I think the components are fine and even as someone who doesn't max the waist every time, I'm fine with that too. Also people forget it was 2 minutes pushups, 2 minutes sit-ups, 2 mile run fairly recently. 1 minute, 1 minute, and 1.5 miles is an easier test. A lot of things in the AF could use an overhaul or a re-org. PFT prolly not one of them.
