Physical

Physical readiness is the ability to meet the physical demands of any duty or combat position, move lethally on the battlefield, accomplish the mission and continue to fight, win, and come home healthy. If the overarching goal of H2F is Soldier readiness, then the overarching physical training goal is movement lethality—the ability to physically engage with and destroy the enemy.

Movement lethality is the ability to apply and sustain the right amount of strength, endurance, and speed to meet the demands of training and combat physical tasks. This physical goal is supported by optimal mental function. The goal and the function are inseparable, linked together. The ability to tolerate physical duress is a function of mental toughness. It is generated by training the critical components of physical readiness and the tasks they support.
