PRT context
What the Navy PRT Push-Up Event Measures
The push-up modality measures upper-body muscular endurance. It is one scored component of the Navy PRT alongside the forearm plank and a cardiorespiratory or approved alternate cardio event.
Official scoring logic
How Navy PRT Push-Up Scoring Works
Push-up scoring depends on sex, age group, and completed repetitions. Guide-5A uses discrete performance thresholds rather than a continuously interpolated formula.
The official point levels are 100, 95, 90, 85, 80, 75, 70, 65, 60, 55, 50, and 45. Probationary at 45 points is the lowest passing push-up category.

What Push-Up Score Do I Need on the Navy PRT?
There is no single repetition number that means “good” for every Sailor. Required repetitions vary by age, sex, and desired performance level. Use the selected standard table and the next-level target below rather than relying on a universal benchmark.
PRT preparation
Improving Navy PRT Push-Ups
Train specifically for repeatable, correctly performed Navy push-ups and increase quality volume gradually rather than testing to failure every session.
Use the current Navy push-up movement standard so training repetitions transfer to PRT scoring.
Add clean submaximal sets over time instead of relying only on all-out attempts.
Include two-minute practice sets periodically so pacing matches the actual modality.
Allow enough recovery for shoulders, chest, triceps, and trunk to maintain repetition quality.

Additional questions
Navy PRT Push-Up Calculator FAQ
How many push-ups do I need for a higher Navy PRT score?
The required count depends on your sex and age group. This calculator shows the next official threshold after every result.
Does my Navy PRT push-up score depend on age?
Yes. Guide-5A uses age groups from 17–19 through 65+, with different repetition thresholds.
Are male and female Navy push-up standards different?
Yes. Current Guide-5A publishes separate male and female push-up thresholds for each age group.
Do push-up points affect my overall Navy PRT score?
Yes. Push-ups are one scored modality, but the overall PRT also depends on forearm plank and cardio performance.
Can I use this calculator as my official Navy PRT score?
No. It is a preparation tool. Official results are determined and recorded under current Navy Physical Readiness Program procedures.
What push-up technique does the Navy require?
Current Guide-5A describes a leaning-rest start position, straight body alignment, and lowering until the arms bend to at least 90 degrees before returning to the up position.
Where can I find the current Navy PRT standards?
Use MyNavyHR's Physical Readiness landing page and PRP Guides index, where Guide-5A is listed.
