Equipped isn't ready

The Prepared Dad Test, or just the HEFT physical.

The Prepared Dad Test organizes five areas into an educational readiness profile, medical, family plan, skills, sustainment, and a physical battery. HEFT (Hazard-Event Fitness Test) is that physical part, run in full and on its own. Same protocols, same scoring, your scores carry across.

Could you carry someone to the car if they could not walk? Stop a bad bleed? Does the family know the plan? These checks examine several parts of readiness; they do not recreate an emergency or certify performance. Results save on this device, come back today or in six months and your history is here.

HEFT, The Physical

Just the physical part, on its own

A field profile of several physical capacities. Where defensible population norms exist, they are identified; elsewhere, disclosed field benchmarks are used. Pick the depth that fits the time you have right now. For progress tracking, retest under similar conditions after adequate recovery. Don't repeat maximal efforts when fatigued, ill, recently injured, or unsure whether exertion is appropriate. Every attempt logs to your history automatically.
