Total Force Fitness (TFF) was conceived as a holistic framework for building and sustaining Human Performance Optimization for Warfighters and their families. As such, TFF research must also be holistic in nature. During the research breakout, group barriers and challenges to TFF research were discussed, and critical research focus areas were prioritized. The top approaches discussed were (1) using big data to identify best practices and health trajectories; (2) applying community-based participatory research principles to military units; (3) focusing on "Whole-Person," integrative research (physical, behavioral, spiritual, and biological) across the Department of Defense; and, finally, (4) prioritizing key opportunities to advance TFF across the active duty and Reserve/Guard enterprises and their families. The research group noted that coordinated action would be needed to move the prioritized agenda forward. Finally, translating research into action is essential because TFF is a way of honoring our service members as whole persons with careers, goals, and families.
全维体能训练(Total Force Fitness,TFF)被构想为一个构建和维持作战人员及其家属的人类绩效优化的整体框架。因此,TFF 研究也必须具有整体性。在研究分组讨论会上,讨论了 TFF 研究的团体障碍和挑战,并确定了关键的研究重点领域。讨论最多的方法包括:(1)使用大数据来确定最佳实践和健康轨迹;(2)将社区参与式研究原则应用于军事单位;(3)专注于整个国防部的“全人”综合研究(身体、行为、精神和生物);最后,(4)优先考虑在现役和预备役/国民警卫队企业及其家庭中推进 TFF 的关键机会。研究小组指出,需要采取协调行动来推进优先议程。最后,将研究转化为行动至关重要,因为 TFF 是一种尊重我们的服务人员作为有职业、目标和家庭的完整个体的方式。
