What is the objective of PRT?
To develop Soldiers’ physical capabilities to perform their duty assignments and combat roles in accordance with their unit’s METL
What fundamental skills do PRT activities include?
Climbing, crawling, jumping, landing, and sprinting, because all contribute to success in the more complex skills of obstacle negotiation, combatives, and military movement
What are the physical components of physical readiness?
Physical components, structural capabilities, and movement skills
What are the physical components?
Muscular strength and endurance, aerobic and anaerobic endurance, and power
What are the training phases of H2F?
Initial and Sustaining
What is reconditioning?
A PRT phase with the goal of restoring Soldiers’ physical fitness levels that enable them to safely progress to their previous level of physical conditioning
What principles does PRT follow?
Precision, Progression, and Integration
Discuss sleep readiness.
Soldiers should sleep as much as they can, whenever they can, as the situation allows. The vast majority of Soldiers require 7-8 hours of sleep per night to sustain performance; more sleep is better. Soldiers can maximize sleep and subsequent performance by timing sleep and caffeine use optimally. Finally, only sleep replaces lost sleep
What is anaerobic?
A high-intensity activity for a short duration
What is mobility?
The functional application of strength and endurance
Who should be able to explain and demonstrate all PRT activities?
Officers, NCOs, and PRT leaders
What does H2F stand for?
Holistic Health and Fitness
What are the 5 H2F domains?
Physical readiness.
Mental readiness.
Nutritional readiness.
Sleep readiness.
Spiritual readiness.
Discuss Spiritual Readiness.
Spiritual readiness is a vital domain in the H2F system, and it directly impacts the resiliency of individuals and organizations. Encouraging Soldiers to connect and reflect on the worldview or value system that informs their core beliefs, principles, ethics, and morals can empower them to endure and overcome stress, hardship, and tragedy. Leaders have a responsibility to support spiritual readiness practices and create a climate where dignity and respect guide the process. Understanding common spiritual readiness practices enables leaders to support individual spiritual readiness development, sustainment, maintenance, and repair
Discuss mental readiness.
To optimize performance, Soldiers need to be mentally ready. Mental readiness is deliberately assessed and developed like any other skills through education, training, and practice. To use a computing analogy, addressing both physical and mental readiness is a “systems check” on both the “hardware” and the “software” that makes an effective Soldier. The H2F system incorporates training techniques to develop individual and unit mental readiness
