This study involved a retrospective examination of physical fitness, training outcomes, and injury rates among personnel in the Fitness Training Unit (FTU). Personnel were assigned to the FTU based on low performance on push-ups, sit-ups, and/or a 1-mile run (N = 44 men, 95 women) and received an augmented physical fitness program before basic combat training (BCT). They were compared with 712 men and 379 women who took the same test but were not assigned to the FTU and went directly to BCT. FTU and non-FTU personnel trained in the same battalions. Army Physical Fitness Test scores and BCT outcomes (discharged or completed BCT in 8 weeks) were obtained from unit training records. Injuries during BCT were documented from a review of the medical records. On entry to BCT, FTU women had similar 2-mile run times compared with non-FTU women (21.6 vs. 21.5 minutes, respectively; p = 0.86); FTU men were considerably slower on the 2-mile run than non-FTU men (20.3 vs. 17.3 minutes; p < 0.01). FTU women and non-FTU women had similar graduation success (60% vs. 68%, respectively; p = 0.14) and time-loss injury rates (1.3 vs. 1.4 people injured/100 person-days, respectively; p = 0.90). FTU men were less likely to graduate than non-FTU men (55% vs. 82%; p < 0.01) and more likely to suffer a time-loss injury (1.2 vs. 0.7 people injured/100 person-days; p < 0.01). Efforts should be directed toward providing a sufficient training stimulus to improve the aerobic fitness level of men (as well as women) in the FTU.
本研究对体能训练单位（FTU）人员的身体素质、训练成果和受伤率进行了回顾性调查。根据俯卧撑、仰卧起坐和/或1英里跑成绩不佳，将人员分配至FTU（44名男性，95名女性），并在基础战斗训练（BCT）前接受强化体能训练计划。将他们与712名男性和379名女性进行比较，这些人参加了相同测试，但未被分配至FTU，而是直接进入BCT。FTU和非FTU人员在同一营接受训练。从单位训练记录中获取陆军体能测试成绩和BCT成果（8周内退伍或完成BCT）。通过查阅医疗记录记录BCT期间的受伤情况。在进入BCT时，FTU女性与非FTU女性的2英里跑时间相似（分别为21.6分钟和21.5分钟；p = 0.86）；FTU男性的2英里跑速度比非FTU男性慢得多（20.3分钟对17.3分钟；p < 0.01）。FTU女性和非FTU女性的毕业成功率相似（分别为60%和68%；p = 0.14），误工受伤率也相似（分别为每100人日1.3人和1.4人受伤；p = 0.90）。FTU男性比非FTU男性毕业的可能性更小（55%对82%；p < 0.01），误工受伤的可能性更大（每100人日1.2人和0.7人受伤；p < 0.01）。应致力于提供足够的训练刺激，以提高FTU中男性（以及女性）的有氧适能水平。
