Simple Fitness Test

hamptonroads.com

The trend in fitness is toward simplicity and "total" which is a drastic change form the obsession of specialization in the past.
If you don't have a Navy SEAL fitness lab at your disposal--you'll never be in a Hollywood movie--but you can still try this simple test:

1 mile run (max effort)

3 min rest

Max pull-ups one set, no breaks

3 min rest

Max burpees in 2 min

“The Truth Teller”

The standards are on the site (kinda corny) but you will get the idea. Navy bashing aside, the Marines usually get fitness right--or closer to right than the Army anyway.
