12/12/2014 - JOINT BASE SAN ANTONIO-RANDOLPH, Texas -- Active-duty,
Air Force Reserve and Air National Guard officers and enlisted members
who want to maintain copies of their pre-July 2010 fitness records need
to access the Air Force Fitness Management System (AFFMS) and save or
print their records by Dec. 30, Air Force Personnel Center officials
said Dec. 9.
AFFMS will be offline from Dec. 31 - Jan. 11 to enable AFPC teams to
transition content to the improved Air Force Fitness Management System
II, said 1st Lt. Nathan Strickland, the AFPC Special Programs branch
chief. When the new system comes back online, it will not include
fitness information older than July 2010.
The new system - AFFMS II - will improve accessibility and fitness
program managers' ability to manage fitness program records. In
addition, it will feature more stringent security controls to protect
members' information from unauthorized changes or updates.
"This system will provide Total Force Airmen with a more up-to-date,
user-friendly fitness management system that will better support the
overall Air Force Fitness program," Strickland said. "Before the system
goes down, we want to make sure that Airmen are aware of the pending
change and have time to go into the system to save their older records."
While there is no requirement for Airmen to maintain fitness records,
Strickland advises Airmen who would like to maintain a copy of their
fitness history prior to July 2010 to go to the current AFFMS site by
Dec. 30 and download or print their pre-July 2010 information. Records
can be printed or saved as PDFs, he said.
"In the interim, base fitness assessment centers and unit fitness
program managers will maintain hard copies of fitness score sheets for
Airmen who test while the system is down and will update those records
once AFFMS II is up and running," Strickland said.
To save copies of pre-July 2010 records, go to the Air Force Portal,
hover the curser over the "Life & Fitness" menu and select "AF
Fitness Management System" from the drop down menu. For more information
