FM 7-22. Hollistic Health & Fitness Flashcards
(20 cards)
Why is physical readiness training a mandatory training requirement?
-Considered by senior leadership to be essential to individual, unit, and force readiness.
-Required by law for all individuals and units
Who serves as the primary trainers for lower enlisted Soldiers, Crews, and small teams?
Noncommissioned officers
To accomplish the PRT mission, what must NCOs do?
-Identify specific tasks that PRT enhances in support of of unit’s C- or D-METL
-Prepare, rehearse, and execute PRT.
-Evaluate PRT and conduct AARs to provide feedback to the commander.
What are the 8 tenets of train as you will fight, as they relate to PRT?
-PRT must support full spectrum operations and promote quick transitions between missions.
-PRT must support proficiency in combined arms operations and unified actions.
-PRT focus is on training the fundamentals first.
-PRT must be performance-oriented, conducted under realistic conditions, and mission focused.
-PRT should incorporate challenging, complex, ambiguous, and uncomfortable situations.
-PRT must incorporate safety and composite risk management (CRM)
-PRT must be conducted under conditions that replicate the operational environment.
-PRT must be conducted during deployments.
What are the tenets of standard-based training?
-Leaders know and enforce standards.
-Leaders define success in the absence of standards.
-Leaders train to standard, not time.
What are PRT System’s phrases?
-The initial conditioning phase (prepare future Soldiers to learn and adapt to Army PRT. Prior to Basic Training)
-The toughening phase (developing foundational fitness and fundamental movement skills that prepare Soldiers to transition to the sustaining phase. Basic Training.)
-The sustaining phase (develop a higher level of physical readiness required by duty position and C- or D METL. AIT and remaining Army career.)
What is the objective of reconditioning?
Reconditioning restores Soldiers’ physical fitness levels that enable them to safely re-enter the toughening or sustaining phase and progress of their previous level of conditioning.
What are the principles that the conduct of the Army PRT follows?
-Precision.
-Progression
-Integration
What are Army principles of unit training?
-Commanders and other leaders are responsible for training.
-Noncommissioned officers train individuals, crews, and small teams.
-Train to standard
-Train as you will fight.
-Train while operating.
-Train fundamentals first.
-Train to develop adaptability
-Understand the operational environment
-Train to sustain
-Train to maintain
-Conduct multi-echelon and concurrent training
What are three components of training the PRT System incorporates?
-Strength
-Endurance
-Mobility
What are the three types of training the PRT system incorporates?
-On-Ground
-Off-ground
-Combatives
What are some examples of off-ground training?
-High jumper.
-Power jump
-Verticals
-Pull-up
-Leg tuck
What are some examples of on-ground training?
-Marching
-Speed running
-Sustained running
-Calisthenics
-Resistance training.
What are primary causes of overtraining?
Overtraining often results from lack of adequate recovery, rets, or a lack of nutrient intake.
Once a profile is lifted, how much time is the Soldier given to train for the APFT?
Twice the time of the temporary profile, but no more than 90-days. The Soldier should take APFT at 90-day mark if out of tolerance.
The Army builds H2F training and testing across a Soldiers’ career span in two phases: What are they?
Initial and sustaining.
What are the FIVE domains of H2F?
Physical readiness, nutritional readiness, mental readiness, spiritual readiness, and sleep readiness.
Peak performance is attained and maintained by scheduling training through deployments with varying periods or cycles of maximal and submaximal training. If the Soldier has no scheduled combat deployment, the cycles can repeat at sub-peak levels build or sustain very high foundational readiness. What are the three training cycles of H2F?
MICROCYCLE, MESOCYCLE, MACROCYCLE
What is the Chaplain Corps role in spiritual readiness?
UMTs and chaplain sections support and advise on spiritual readiness deployment for both religious and non-religious personnel. Chaplains represent particular faith traditions as religious leaders while serving the spiritual needs of their assigned units’ Soldiers.
