Any TACP's in house???
I have the chance to cross train to become a TACP and was curious about the training. I see that some say the 200m swim was scrapped others say it is still used. Just want to check on this so I can start my swim training to become effiecient.
I have the run, push ups, sit ups and pull ups taken care of, just want to check on the swim.
Thanks in advance.

Swim is still very much a part of the indoc. Also remember, you have to perform all the exercises in one day. Not like a run, rest a day, then swim. But I am pretty sure except for the swim its a 5 minute rest between all exercises. Not sure how much time you officially have before/after the swim though.
I was talking to a CRO about this about a month ago. Good luck!

If anyone is a TACP on here, can you PM me? I need to see if one of my good friends is still around or not

<-- TACP, I'm always open to answering questions. As far as I know the 200m is not part of the PAST test, it should just be the Army PT test. They have started the TACP indoc program though and I have no idea if they swim or not.

The swim isn't part of the PAST but I'm working on the INDOC answer. We have a few guys from my unit there right now. I don't think so but I'll try and get an answer. Should hear back shortly.

So I still don't have an answer on all of INDOC, but I read the PAST requirements for Day One: There is still no swim! The four events are:
1 1/2 Mile Run
Push Ups
Crunches
Pull-Ups
I can't remember the requirements but those are the four events. If anyone is interested just let me know and I'll get the specific numbers.

If you can't do more than 6 then don't even try to go to the school. Make sure you can do 8-10+ minimum. This is also true with the push-ups, sit-ups, and the 1.5 mile run. Make sure you can do better than just passing them.
