Tool description
The Individual Physical Proficiency Test (IPPT) scores push-ups, sit-ups, and a 2.4 km run. This calculator uses approximate tables—not official SAF scoring software.
How to use
- Pick your IPPT age band.
- Enter push-up and sit-up repetitions.
- Enter 2.4 km run time as minutes and seconds.
- Review total points and pass/gold band.
Formulas & reference
Total = push-up pts + sit-up pts + run ptsRun time converted to decimal minutesAward bands: Pass ~61+, Silver ~75+, Gold ~85+ (approx.)
Stations scored
- Push-ups (max 50 pts approx.)
- Sit-ups (max 50 pts approx.)
- 2.4 km run (max 50 pts approx.)
- Total out of ~100 points
Calculation logic
Each station maps to points via age-adjusted lookup tables. Faster runs and higher reps yield more points.
Official IPPT scoring may differ slightly. Use this for training estimates only.
IPPT Score Calculator FAQ
Common questions about this calculator and how to use the results.
How do I improve my run score?
Mix easy mileage with tempo and interval sessions twice a week.
Do push-ups need full ROM?
Train to the standard you will be tested with—chest near floor, full lockout.
What if I fail one station?
Total points still sum; focus on your weakest station for quick gains.
Can older age groups score the same?
Tables adjust expectations; compare within your band.
Should I test on consecutive days?
No—fresh legs for sit-ups and run give a truer score.
