BUFF DUDES / Fitness Challenge / Can Buff Dudes Survive the Army Combat Fitness Test?
Hey everyone! Thanks for the suggestion - hope you enjoy this challenge. Unfortunately I'm gonna be out of commission for a bit (full story here: instagram.com/p/Bp0CvJ7A7l8/?igshid=14t2tir2unvr6) but we'll be continuing to upload content as thankfully I can still edit. Stay Buff! -Hudson
May your recovery be complete & speedy 🙏🏻
buff dude 😎👑
Hope you have a fast and buff recovery!
Get well soon Hudson! Wish you speedy recovery!!
This was absolutely brilliant
Mad respect for buff dads physic !! HE HAS AND CAN DO MORE THAN SOME OF THESE 20 year old guys. Way to go !!
Ed Jim Jim old man strength Exists
Hes in good shape for sure, but what exactly did he do or can he do more than them? He lost in every challenege by quite a big margin.
@@alenx5455 probably vs the average 20 year old
Some people just aren't made to be strong. Just like some people aren't made to be smart
@@alenx5455 You're comparing a man in his late 50s or early 60s with his sons that own a fitness channel, have trained for multiple years and are in their early 30s man. He did 3 reps of 105 kgs in trap bar deadlifts, , power throwing a 10 kg ball over 10 meters, 10 reps of leg tuck and did 30 realease push ups. Compare the brothers and not with the old man.
Seeing Buff Dad this happy makes me happy.
I agree
Yeah, it's pretty cool. Most guys his age aren't that happy.
100% always gotta show your folks the utmost respect...especially when your dad is that rad.
@@cheetajoe4912
How old are the Buff Dudes, though?
I would guess maybe about 32-34 or so in this video?
I am 33 years old myself, and they seem to be roughly my age here.
@@Peter_1986 you should take more care of yourself then
Legend has it that the Buff Dudes insult and bully their scapulars on a daily basis so that they're constantly depressed.
Leon Fetzenfisch best comment
Lmao
Love the relationrelationship you guys have with your father, its kinda cute. Seems to be the coolest dad ever.
Man, I just want to reach buffdad's age with half of his strengh and vitality :"D
Hes not that old u know :)
Life is what you make it...
You can have it! Start lifting 3-4 times a week, do some conditioning 2-3 times a week, eat healthy 80-90% of the time, and get at least 7-8 hours sleep nightly.
@Calamity u never know dude
U could die at 45
Nd are your 60 year old family members deadlifting 220lb ?
A little word of unsolicited advice from a soldier who does this monthly.. on the push-ups, the fingers are supposed to be in the crease between your shoulders and pecs, and the starting position is on the "down". On the Sprint/Drag/Carry, there is also a side shuffle, and you start the sprint by laying on the ground in the push-up position. Lastly, for the leg tucks, most Drill Sergeants or graders will not count your rep unless you go all the way down with your arms, then basically do a pull-up. The leg tucks are basically a messed up pull-up and a leg curl.
Other than that, good job you guys! The ACFT is tough.
Bro nobody cares.. this is for fun and laughs. Soldiers like you are what's wrong with our Army. Get over yourself.

Brandon and Hudson have always struck me as a great representation of the difference between genetic advantage in muscle appearance and pure strength.
Brandon is taller, broader, and his muscles always look bigger than Hudson's... yet Hudson can always match Brandon lift for lift, and sometimes even outperforms him (at least in the videos).
no brandon is stronger on most if not all lifts. u cna see it in their 1rm bulk vids
Hudson looks bigger to me.
@@Smackosynthesis nah brandon is defo bigger its just hudson is wearing a vest and hes wearing t shirt. ud be surprised the difference
I believe Hudson used to be bigger but then he got married and had a kid. He was just never as lean.
@@dn3772 his arms and chest have always looked bigger to me. Maybe Hudson has more body fat. Maybe I'm blind.
Anyway Brandon was able to do more than him in this vid. Not that it really matters.
It's great watching you guys genuinely having fun filming these. Many "professional" video makers are too stiff and "fake", or trying to show off or whatever, but you guys have that professional look while staying genuine and original. Thanks and keep up the good work.
The quality of these vids is just so much better than the rest of the UA-cam fitness vids it’s hilarious
Agreed
I was going to write this same thing. A lot of UA-camrs could learn a lot from the Buff Dudes about filming/editing. :)
This is the only drama free and entertaining fitness channel out there
Athlean x already did this though and they have no ads
@Mutt Fitness true. But much less entertaining and imo too focused on strange little tweaks and lifts that are irrelevant to most of us. He is still pretty good though.
Barbell medicine is great though
Nothing better than having fun time with family.
Buff Dad nees a new T Shirt with “Buff Grandpa” on it..😂
I'd buy that one.
Bahahaha😄😄 this is so funny! Y'all are hilarious. "I actually don't want so many points bc I don't want to go into combat... He caught my best throw.."
And of course, what a great challenge. 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Lol this new pt test literally gonna get rid half the damn army and 70% of the reserves,
More like 95% of the reserves, and that's starting from the top down. I know quite a few SNCOs who are ready to drop a retirement packet when this hits us (Nasty Girls) hahaha.
In all honesty, this test, while it is harder to get a perfect score on, it's actually easier than the current one. The max run time is almost a walk, and the minimums on everything are a joke.
@@danielmorton4306
If you're in a heavy physical demand MOS and you don't work out it's a toss up as to whether you'll be able to deadlift 180lbs with good form. With the current one I don't even have to work out. I just have to eat healthy enough to not get fat and i can pass.
Like Daniel Morton said, the passing scores are currently quite low. If everyone had to get 100 points in every event, then yeah, 99% of the Army would be gone. lol. Currently for "soldiers in heavy physical demand unit" (I would assume combat arms) they need 180 lbs on the deadlift, 8.5 m on the power throw, 30 push-ups, 2:09 on the sprint drag carry, 5 leg tucks, and 18 min two-mile run. For soldiers in "moderate physical demand unit" (I would think special branches and combat service support branches) they just need 140 lbs on deadlift, 4.6 m throw, 10 push-ups, 3:35 on the sprint drag carry, 1 leg tuck (LMAO!) and 21:07 on the two-mile "run."
thought this looked different to the ones I hear about.
Duke is a beast, dont get me wrong buff dudes are awesome, but being so fit as a buff-grandpop mayor respect 💪💪💪
Wow the shot of you Bros running and buff dad catching up is so cinematic... I mean I'm sure buff dad must've felt so proud in that moment. This is like perfect father sons relationship. The old lion catching up while the young beasts surpass him in a field he introduced them to. So epic💪💪🦅
Wow. That's something. To be in such a great relationship with once dad. I am jealous.
Greetings from Germany 🇩🇪
Greetings!!
Hallo!
I love you guys !! Great video.... The awesome thing is, the saddest thing.... your Dad is in WAY BETTER SHAPE than I am. Buff Dad FTMFW !! Keep up the great videos !!
This looks like positive masculinity. I dig it
There’s no such thing as positive masculinity or negative masculinity or toxic masculinity it is just masculine
@@georgerodger2104 "There's no such thing as good criticism or negative criticism it is just criticism" See how it makes no sense?
091Cash I don’t see how it’s related
Agreed
@@091Cash not related
Love the family dynamics between you three. It's obvious you're a close and supportive family.
Wow guys amazing camera work. And Buff dad was awesome
So many of those leg tucks wouldn't have counted and none of Brandon's would've counted. Gotta fully extend the arms at the end of the rep and also both knees must touch for it to count. And they changed the pushups to T pushups which are basically hand release pushups but when you release you have to fully extend your arms in line with your shoulders and then bring them back in. At the end of that is one rep for the pushups. Loved the video and what you Dudes do. Keep up the good work
Next: Buff Dudes' Skyscraper stair race!
Some buff tower running in the land of skyscrapers!
now a firefighter fitness test
The only exercise that is the same from back when I was in the Army is the 2 mile run. 12:30 is my record. I only was able to do that in one year out of the ten I was in. Great job Guys.
You guys are amazing, hope Hudson is comfortable and well on the way to recovery! The Duke is INSANELY fit, in the British Army, we have greater margins for older members of staff, so on balance, Buff Duke WINS!!! Keep up the great work, you motivate me all the time and I thank you for that.
BUff Duke is awesome. That test is brutal and he did it with a smile on his face. IM wondering if we had a little editing going in with the 2 mile run though......lol
you guys can do a full mma conditioning workout that fighters do before their fight camps or on a regular basis!!!!!!!!!!! just take care of buff dad.
I love how your dad totally supports u guys, so awesome to see; also man your dad's buff! Good genes
Get well soon buff dude👊👊
Hey Buff Dudes! (And Duke of course) you guys are awesome.
You have got an awesome relationship with your dad. I'm jealous :(
buff dad 😎😎😎😎 Ur cool
Damn son, Hudson got massive from the last video I've seen, tree trunk arms, Brandon looking great as always and buff dad is a beast
Pappa got some Power
Been in the Army for 6 years. I’ve seen giant guys with huge triceps, biceps and giant pecs who could bench press 300 pounds for 12 reps struggle to pass the push up event. The push up event is no joke. Plus the bigger you are, the more your lungs and heart have to work.
Buff Dad Sounds like Valentine from fallout 4
Great videos guys !!much respect buff dad well done !!
Buff dad rocks🤘
My daughters love watching Buff Dudes
I retired with 360 on the extended scale on the APFT. I might actually be interested in trying this new test...
As a soldier myself, this was very interesting to watch lol.
You see the minimum requirements for each category of soilder on the paper. I'd say they pass.
The strength parts are very very easy to pass. 180 lbs deadlifts for 3 reps wtf? 2 mile run seems impossible for someone like me (never do cardio)
@@Gugnar678 it's definitely impossible for me right now, but I'm working at it. I can currently only get 1 mile a little under 15 minutes. Mostly cuz I'm fat.
Easier to improve (do improve!!!)
Same. Kinda disappointed because i haven't reached a 300 on the old pt test yet
Looks like fun buff dad could almost be a infantryman but definitely an MP , or cav props to him I cant wait to try this when I come home from deployment
Do more super hero workouts!!
Army changed the push ups to T-push ups. come all the way down and extend your arms out
What the that's in madras Oregon I went to that school jcms last year😨😂
This is awesome. I bet you guys had a blast growing up with a Dad like that. He's so funny and awesome! And Hudson, get better soon man.
Do Marine Corps CFT, combat fitness test!!!!!
Agreed.
Yes, agreed! Ours is much better and puts you through your paces a bit.
Old Course after it. Nothing like doing the rope when your arms are complete jelly.
@@solidoustopher the question is, do they know the tricks to climbing the rope 😏➰
@Keith Ray Jesus you're dumb... Does every soldier think they're better than everyone? Because they're not at all. Your standards are fucked. We don't even have fat bodies in our branch. Ya'll make uniforms for people who weigh upwards of 300 lbs of fat and STILL allow them to stay in!
Hey Buff Dudes, loving the video as always! Just a little tip for the med ball throw. If you squat, you’ll actually decrease the power on the hip hinge and throw the ball less distance, the same that can be said for a kettlebell swing. I’d definitely recommend getting the ball higher on the hike and it should help increase your distance. Keep up the videos, always loved your content! Killed it dudes
US Army *sees video*
US Army: GET THESE GUYS ON BOARD WE NEED BETTER SOLDIERS!
They can't run for shit so I wouldn't want them in my Platoon. Speed and agility is more important than raw strength
I’ve been doing consistent powerlifting and calisthenics for around 2 years now but the old man might be stronger and fitter than I am. Then again, I’ve been training for 2 years, he’s probably been training for 40 years
East or West buff dudes are best and dad too! Love his energy in this age!!!
Man..you know BUFF dad still DESTROYS their mom every night.
Very cool! To continue the military theme- how about a 12 mile ruck march with about a 25 lb load?
Buff Dad is an inspiration. Great videos guys!
Awesome job! Really neat to watch the Buff Dudes take this on, haven't tried it myself yet but it's inevitable.
I love the medicine ball throw since I do that with a twelve pound shot put every day for about 4 months a year
BUFF Duke/Dad can do more than many teens I've seen. I hope to be as fit and energetic at that age! Great video and I really enjoy the camaraderie between the three of you. Also, the quality remains amazing. Thanks for completing another awesome challenge. YATS FFUB!
I love buff dad. He’s such the competitor. He’s in better shape than most people period.
I can’t wait till they start implementing this and stop with the fucjing APFT
Apft is a damn cake walk
5:44 LOLLL Winning the game without winning the game, love it
The video editing though...Awesome work!
That looks really tough, respect
King Isaac agreed
I wanna see these awesome dudes do the BUD/S PST!
Buff dudes never stop uploading you guys are awesome! I've learned so much from you guys! And buff dad's making gaizzz!
Amazing buff Duke, you've got my respect sir, really well done!!!!
buff dad 62 years old doing this stuff is amazing. he is a beast!!
YOU GUYS ARE JUST AWESOME
While conducting the Sprint drag carry you must start out in the pushup position or resting pushup position, you cannot start the excersise standing. The reason I bring this up is because every little thing counts either for or against you.
Shaaooowww dats right sick channel just got my Military workout in first ever seeing a video of u guys . Starting cracking up in da end stay buff
Hey Buff Dudes! Loving the theme here . . . Maybe try an Air Force Special Tactics PAST for the ALO, CRO, or STO standards. I dunno how y'all feel about swimming, because CRO and STO have it, but maybe an ALO test would be cool! Fun to see y'all work, keep it up!
USMC Combat Fitness Test. You can easily look up all three events on UA-cam and you can find a copy of the order MCO 6100.13 by searching on google or such. Or ask me and I got you haha
Can you guys make a video about the best excersices to give you a quick buff before a date? Like so they can see 😂😂😂
χρηστος Λυτρας keep dreaming
@@TheUntrainedNinjaI think 20 quick pull ups would do the job
χρηστος Λυτρας What are you talking about ? Do you mean a pump, or you genuinely think you can get in shape with 20 pull ups? Not trying to be a dick here
Thanks, Buff Dudes!
Getting this ACFT done is a goal of mine for my 50th birthday next year. I've been working my way up to it. Like you, the run is going to be an issue for me due to some bursitis on the right side of my hip that acts up every time I go running. I'm still workin at it though.
Good Job!
Im not a hater but you show in your instagram history the making of this video the same day athlean x uploaded the same video testing jessie
Not being mean but they probably watched it and thought it was a great idea.
So you’re saying that basically they watched his video, then organised all this stuff and filmed it on the same day just to copy Athlean X? I’m pretty sure Brandon and Hudson don’t live too close to their parents anymore so I’m guessing this video was probably planned well in advance. Plus this video was a suggestion from a viewer in the comments to an old video of theirs sometime ago.
@@THDSCornwall you have to admit the timing is weird
Mutt Fitness yeah I agree, it's an inside job for sure
I love it. People think it’s easy but in reality once you finish the sprint drag and carry you’re exhausted
You guys cracked me up with this. I think you guys forgot the 2 minute timer for the push up but otherwise it was awesome. Also I'm an active duty soldier who has taken the ACFT 3 times and man it never gets easy. This new PT Test will most certainly separate the weak from the strong.
C’mon Hudson. Get those hands up on those hand release push-ups lol y’all did a great job on the ACFT
Made me smile being in the Army, you guys did better than a lot of guys in here, hahahah!
There have been quite a few minor changes to the ACFT since the upload date of this video. Maybe a revisit? Would also be interesting to see how you guys do on the alternate events for the run. Leg tucks now have a plank for an alternate event too.
You guys should do the firefighter combat challenge AKA the toughest 2 minutes in sports
Holy shit !!! Buff dad is a legit monster 💪💪💪
Sun's out, guns out 😂😂🤘💪
ACFT is no joke. Maxing that thing is doable only by a select few.
The body is so interesting. You guys are clearly jacked and in shape, but the pushup numbers in this and the challenge video really surprised me. When I was in basic training I saw a guy do 102 pushups (good form, he was being tested) and he didn't look half as jacked as you guys.
Do the British Royal marine fitness test, its all controlled done to bleeps and you habe to do a 3 mile run, 1.5 mile for 12 minutes to warm up then 1.5 as fast as you can. You do tricep push ups to a beep max of 60, then wide arm pull ups to a beep holding at the top to your chest till the beep, then you have your sit uo test with hands besides your head knees to elbows to the beep and then lastly, bleep test/ shuttle run, all the bleep stuff csn be found on UA-cam, simply type in royal sit up test, push up test, pull up test ect.
Here's the deal. You are only suppose to have about 3 to 5 minutes to rest between each event. Also, the push-ups you only have 2 minutes to complete it and the only rest position is in the up position. Oh, and to get 100 points on the run, you have to complete it in 12:45. Buff Dad failed since the slowest allowed is 21:00. The Dudes passed it at mid level. I want to see them do a to standard version of the ACFT.
Awesome video Buff Dudes. You're only getting better. Sorry about the broken ankle buff bro. On your way to becoming the 10 billion dollar man. Lol.
BTW, isn't Buff Babys' Bday on the way soon? Hope u celebrate Buff big that day.
!ffuB yatS
I just looked up the scoring chart for the ACFT and it is a lot easier than I would have thought!
Its made to be easier to pass, mainly because we have guys who have been doing t he same pt test for 10-20 years who now have to learn how to do something besides push-ups, sit-ups, and running. But is made to be much harder to max than the old test. Also, it seems like they went to failure on the push-ups, and there's a 2 minute time limit on them just like the old test so you can't pace yourself. Those and the sprint drag are by far the hardest parts, besides the run which is just as miserable as always.
Thats a dad you can only dream of
Buff Dad(s) have unlocked a new level:
Beast Dad(s)! Stay 💪
14:14
I love that passion as Hudson rips off his shirt. And I mean that in the straightest way possible. haha
I want to do this challenge. The problem is getting my hands on that sled and those kettlebells!
Buff dad's arms at the end flex. What a fucking savage
Buff Duke reminds me a lot of Captain O'Neal from Stargate SG1
Great challenge Buffdudes!
Did you perform everything consecutively with the timed breaks? But also love this. Hooah!!!
Do a surströmming challenge.
Thumbs up for putting metrical units!
respect for buff dad
I would love to see a video talking about all your camera gear
Great video guys. Really enjoyed that.
