@@user-ij2jy8mt5e he probably shouldn’t anyway that’s a pretty big drop in rank

Piece of cake. Im 45 and I can do this in my sleep. Im also a competitive runner so I do alot of nonrunning conditioning.

[@280StJohnsPl]

[@danielkliemczak3450]

when the physical test is applied? After phase 1 before phase 1 or during the basic training?

[@armydiverphase1615]

DPFT is done Day 1 and Day 11.

[@damianzamora7830]

Do the pullups have to be with the overhand grip or is underhand allowed as well?

[@vik12D]

Pull ups, not chin ups.

[@paintedhorse6880]

Do divers still have to take the APFT/ACFT?

[@garyheadiii4397]

Are the push-ups in 1 minute or 2?

[@paintedhorse6880]

2

[@alexbrace5996]

How many pull ups are required

[@nathanbravo5075]

6 from a dead hang

[@Who2Rawww]

What if someone enlists w this MOS but doesn’t know how to swim? How would the training go for that person ?

[@kevinhadden2989]

Dive school is not a good place to learn how to swim. It's important to come ready.

[@Who2Rawww]

@@kevinhadden2989 yes I see that now for sure . I ended up enlisting as a 12w. Still don’t know how to swim tho lol

[@twistedcaprisun1]

@@Who2Rawww how did it go?

[@Who2Rawww]

@@twistedcaprisun1 hi, I did 3 years as a 12w in the arng. It went well. Training was good, but not a lot of construction work to do at the unit. Occasional projects like breaking up concrete for plumbers and electricians & some fence building. But mostly regular unit readiness stuff, admin, etc. I got out a year ago. Ignore my initial comment as I don’t know why I would even ask that about a swimmer mos lol
