  As with any Marine Corps command, physical training (PT) is a large and very important part of over all FMF training and education. The course is physically demanding and preparation prior to reporting is extremely essential. Students are expected to maintain Navy body fat composition and grooming standards. All Students will be measured (height, weight, and body fat) on the first day of class. ARRIVE IN STANDARDS AND IN SHAPE! You will not be able to participate in training if you are out of standards. On Training Day Two, an inventory Navy Physical Fitness Assessment (PFA) consisting of: sit and reach, sit-ups, push-ups, and a 1.5 mile timed run will be conducted (swimming is NOT an option). Other physical training conducted during the course includes:
  
  USMC PRT (pull-ups, sit-ups, and 3.0 mile run)
  3-4 PT evolutions (1.5 hours each)
  4 mile hike with gear (gear will be issued, then returned)
  Two days in the field (spending one night in the field)
  Gas chamber
  9mm Pistol Range (Familiarization Fire)
  Marine Corps Obstacle Course
  Litter Obstacle Course
