Ch 6 Designs Flashcards
Program design is completed by who?
Completed by H2F performance teams and approved by the units command
Program design must address what?
Units METL IAW CDRs guidance
Program design is created from
Status of soldier and evaluation of physical/nonphysical demands of his or her job
Structural requirements
The physical and cognitive characteristics that provide the foundation for increased work capacity
Agility
The ability to bend, rotate and twist in the frontal, transverse and sagittal planes and use that ability to change direction.
Coordination
The accuracy and speed of limb and trunk movement.
Dynamic balance
The ability to move under control at speed and with varying load.
Kinesthesia
The perception of the body’s position in space during movement.
Pace
The ability to set the correct speed of an activity to manage fatigue.
Load tolerance
The ability of the skeletal system to bear weight.
Flexibility
The range of motion across single or multiple joints that allows the body to be positioned for optimal movement.
Static balance
The ability to maintain a stable position over a base of support.
Body composition
The percentage of lean muscle and other body tissues.
Bone density
The thickness and quality of the bone that provides its strength.
Perception
The understanding of correct technique and effort that builds skill.
Frontal plane
Divides the body front and back.
Transverse plane
Divides the top and bottom.
Sagittal plane
Divides the body left and right
