Book excerpt: This detailed guide from 1914 is dedicated to bringing the fighting forces of the US Army up to exacting physical fitness standards. The volume represents the major fitness themes of the early 20th century included guidance of barbells, pommel horse, Olympic bars and rings and much more. The manual is designed for use by training personnel and explains how to best create a training environment, deliver training and measure and monitor results. With the tensions and eventual war breaking out in 1914, the guide represents a trend for heightening of fitness standards for all western armies at the time. There are interesting and poignant prefaces from Major General, Chief of Staff Leonard Wood which set the scene for the Army's evolving demands. Watch out too for the unique sections on use of the rifle as a fitness tool for dexterity and calisthenics. Published just prior to the outbreak of World War 1, this beautifully illustrated guide was designed to revolutionise the combat fitness and readiness of the US Army covering a wide range of gymnastic and combat calisthenic exercises.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Koehler's West Point Manual of Disciplinary Physical Training This manual is based upon the experience gathered in this work at the United States Military Academy during a period extending over more than a generation, and upon the direct personal application of the results of this experience to approximately 200,000 men in our new Army, 37,000 of whom were aspirants for commissions. In general, the manual is a revision of Special Regulations, No. 23, Field Training of the Soldier, a syllabus prepared by the author, and published by the War Department, by the direction of the Secretary of War, making it mandatory upon all to carry out this work in the service in accordance with these special regulations. The reason for its publication at the present time is to meet the frequent demands made by those, in and out of the service, who having had a practical personal experience with this method, and who, realizing the present importance of physical training to our people in general, were kind enough to urge its publication in order that this method and any merits it may possess might become as accessible and wide-spread as possible.

Download or read book A Historical Review and Analysis of Army Physical Readiness Training and Assessment written by Whitfield East and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2013-12 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Drillmaster of Valley Forge-Baron Von Steuben-correctly noted in his "Blue Book" how physical conditioning and health (which he found woefully missing when he joined Washington's camp) would always be directly linked to individual and unit discipline, courage in the fight, and victory on the battlefield. That remains true today. Even an amateur historian, choosing any study on the performance of units in combat, quickly discovers how the levels of conditioning and physical performance of Soldiers is directly proportional to success or failure in the field. In this monograph, Dr. Whitfield "Chip" East provides a pragmatic history of physical readiness training in our Army. He tells us we initially mirrored the professional Armies of Europe as they prepared their forces for war on the continent. Then he introduces us to some master trainers, and shows us how they initiated an American brand of physical conditioning when our forces were found lacking in the early wars of the last century. Finally, he shows us how we have and must incorporate science (even when there exists considerable debate!) to contribute to what we do-and how we do it-in shaping today's Army. Dr. East provides the history, the analysis, and the pragmatism, and all of it is geared to understanding how our Army has and must train Soldiers for the physical demands of combat. Our culture is becoming increasingly ''unfit," due to poor nutrition, a lack of adequate and formal exercise, and too much technology. Still, the Soldiers who come to our Army from our society will be asked to fight in increasingly complex and demanding conflicts, and they must be prepared through new, unique, and scientifically based techniques. So while Dr. East's monograph is a fascinating history, it is also a required call for all leaders to better understand the science and the art of physical preparation for the battlefield. It was and is important for us to get this area of training right, because getting it right means a better chance for success in combat.
