about the name

I hate the APFT. I am the first in my family to join any form of the military. My family is not well known for our athleticism. I weighed 120 lbs when I graduated highschool.

Physical fitness and the APFT are not things for which I am naturally gifted. I have to work to do well at this thing.

But it is something you just gotta do. Like bills and taxes, you just have to do the APFT (well, if you're in the army that is).

So, I hate the APFT, but it is one of things you just have to do.
