Waist-to-height ratio is assessed annually during your birth month but is NOT part of the 100-point HPA composite. Per SPFMAN 36-2905, the ratio is truncated (not rounded) to two decimals; the waist is measured at the umbilicus with the average of the three closest measurements rounded down to the nearest 0.5 inch.

How the HPA Works

The Space Force Human Performance Assessment (HPA) replaced the legacy Air Force-style PT test for Guardians. Under the December 2025 interim change to SPFMAN 36-2905 (effective January 1, 2026), the HPA is scored on a 100-point composite: Cardiorespiratory Fitness is worth up to 60 points (2-mile run or 20-meter HAMR shuttle run), Muscular Strength up to 20 points (1-minute push-ups or 2-minute hand-release push-ups), and Muscular Endurance up to 20 points (1-minute sit-ups, 2-minute cross-leg reverse crunch, or forearm plank). Body composition (waist-to-height ratio) is measured separately and is not scored.

Select your sex and age group, choose an event in each component, and enter your performance for real-time scoring against the official charts. Passing requires a composite of 75+ AND meeting the starred minimum in every component: 90+ is Fit to Fight, 75–89.9 is Health Maintenance, and below 75 — or any missed component minimum — is Health Concern.

Official USSF HPA Scoring Standards

HPA scoring is adjusted for age and sex across nine age brackets (Under 25 through 60+). Each component has a starred minimum printed on the official charts — the cardio minimum is worth 35 points, and performing below any component minimum scores 0 points for that event and fails the assessment regardless of your composite total.

Component Scoring (100 pts)

  • Cardiorespiratory (2-mile run or 20m HAMR): 60 pts
  • Muscular Strength (push-ups or HR push-ups): 20 pts
  • Muscular Endurance (sit-ups, cross-leg crunch, or plank): 20 pts
  • Body Composition (WHtR): measured, NOT scored
  • 2-km walk: pass/fail only, medical clearance required

Fitness Categories

  • Fit to Fight: 90.0 points or higher
  • Health Maintenance: 75.0 – 89.9 points
  • Health Concern: below 75.0, or any component minimum missed
  • Health Concern triggers a 3-month retest cycle
