Not sure how many people have seen the new Army fitness test to be implemented next year. Some of these I could do with ease with my current training, others, like the medicine ball toss and the knee tuck, I’ve never tried and would likely not do well at first.
Anyway, this looks like a vast improvement over the current test.

Army senior leaders have approved a new strenuous fitness test designed to better prepare Soldiers for combat tasks, reduce injuries and lead to ample cost savings across the service.
The six-event readiness assessment, called the Army Combat Fitness Test, is intended to replace the current three-event Army Physical Fitness Test, which has been around since 1980.
Beginning October 2020, all Soldiers will be required to take the new gender- and age-neutral test. Before that, field testing set to begin this October will allow the Army to refine the test, with initial plans for up to 40,000 Soldiers from all three components to see it.
