What are the physical fitness requirements for enrolment?
In addition to completing an aptitude test, a questionnaire on your medical condition and history, and being interviewed by a Medical Officer, you will be tested on your level of physical fitness by performing push-ups (19 for men, 9 for women), sit-ups (19 for men, 15 for women), aerobic level (e.g. 2.4 km run in less than 11:56 for men, 14:26 for women), and a hand-grip strength test. Chin-ups would be a good idea too (6 for men, 3 for women), but you are not tested on them. Check here for a detailed intro to the CF fitness standard. Back to top Can I change trades or transfer once I am enrolled? There are many trades available to you as a Reservist in the CF. If you find that belonging to a top-notch professional military band is not your thing, you can apply to “remuster”, or change trades. Depending on the trade you choose, you may be required to attend training at another location in Victoria, or elsewhere on the Island. Other trades include Artillery, Infantry, Administration/Fi
