Coast Guard

Coast Guard PFA scoring guide

Updated July 24, 2026Uses public standards available without CAC access

The Coast Guard calculator is built as a public-readiness estimate. Current service-wide Physical Readiness Program material references authenticated government resources, so the public site uses standards that are available without CAC access and labels the result accordingly.

That conservative label is intentional. A calculator can be useful without overstating its authority. myptscore.us helps users plan push-ups, plank, and cardio readiness from public references, but it does not claim to reproduce every Coast Guard administrative rule, unit-specific requirement, or restricted score table.

Supported events

ComponentSupported inputScoring direction
Push-ups1-minute repetitionsMore repetitions score higher.
Forearm plankHold timeLonger time scores higher.
Cardio1.5-mile run plus public pass options for swim or rowFaster run time scores higher; pass options are planning aids.

Why this is labeled differently

Unlike Army, Navy, Air Force, and Space Force sources that publish current scoring rows in public PDFs, the most current Coast Guard service-wide program references are not fully public. The calculator therefore avoids claiming exact official point-row authority for Coast Guard results. It is better to give users an honest public estimate than to invent precision from unavailable material.

How to use the estimate

Use the Coast Guard page to check whether a practice session is comfortably above the public standard you are using. Enter the actual repetitions and times from practice. If the result is close to the line, treat that as a warning to verify the current official standard through the proper Coast Guard source before relying on the estimate.

The calculator is most useful when it shows trend direction. If push-ups improve, plank time improves, and cardio time improves, the report can show that the training plan is moving in the right direction. If one component stays flat, the event detail makes that visible.

Public source limitations

The site stores public references so reviewers and users can see where the estimate came from. When a source requires a government login, the site does not scrape it, mirror it, or pretend that it is public. That also protects the calculator from mixing academy, accession, operational, and member-readiness standards without context.

Frequently asked questions

Why is Coast Guard marked as a public-readiness estimate?

Because the most current service-wide details are not fully available to the public. The calculator labels that limitation instead of hiding it.

Can I use the result for an official Coast Guard record?

No. Use the official Coast Guard process and source material for record decisions. The site is a planning aid.

Why include Coast Guard if some material is restricted?

Public planning still has value when the limits are clear. Users can estimate readiness and then confirm exact requirements through official channels.
