How to MAX the Standing Power Throw (SPT) | Max the ACFT
The Standing Power Throw (SPT) event represents tasks requiring quick explosive movements to maneuver equipment and personnel. It is the second event that Soldiers take during the Army Combat Fitness Test (ACFT). To MAX it (because that ALL we care about!) the Soldier must throw the ball at least 12.5 meters behind them on the first bounce.
After working through all the kinks and putting everything into practice myself, I've finally cracked the code. These are the hacks to MAX the SPT event, and also some alternate exercises that will absolutely help you develop the muscles required for solid, explosive movement, and also to help you find your momentum to help you toss the ball further!
