Tibial Bone Geometry Is Associated With Bone Stress Injury During Military Training in Men and Women

Kristen J. Koltun et al.

Summary: Baseline measures of bone density, geometry, and strength assessed via peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) can predict the occurrence of tibial bone stress injuries during Marine Officer Candidates School training. Narrower bones, decreased circumference, lower total area, and estimated strength are associated with an increased likelihood of developing tibial bone stress injuries.

Circulating biomarkers associated with performance and resilience during military operational stress

Meaghan E. Beckner et al.

Summary: Adaptation to military operational stress involves a complex physiological response mediated by the sympathetic nervous system, HPA axis, and immune system. Resilience in military personnel is likely underpinned by appropriate biological adaptations to stressors, encompassing neuroendocrine, inflammatory, and growth-stimulating biomarkers. Achieving military readiness and resilience may be aided by a balanced control of homeostasis, regulated inflammatory responses, and appropriate anabolic/catabolic processes across various biomarker domains.

Monitoring work and training load in military settings - what's in the toolbox?

Scott W. Michael et al.

Summary: Military personnel are required to complete physically demanding tasks, which can be quantified through external load or internal strain. While most studies focus on training environments, limited data exist for operational settings. Accelerometry and heart rate are common tools to estimate external and internal load, respectively, but there are limitations to accurately measure these loads, especially during complex military tasks over protracted durations.

Recovery of Cognitive Performance Following Multi-Stressor Military Training

Jamie L. Tait et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the impact of military training on cognitive performance and track its recovery. The results showed that sleep deprivation during training impaired psychomotor speed, reaction time, visual tracking, and vigilance. However, most of these effects recovered after a 3-day recovery period. The study highlights the importance of evaluating cognitive performance for operational readiness in military personnel.

Impact of military training stress on hormone response and recovery

Jamie L. Tait et al.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the impact of military training on hormone levels and track their recovery during a period of reduced training. The results showed that military training decreased cortisol and testosterone levels, but testosterone returned to normal within four days while cortisol took longer to recover.

Supplementary Energy Increases Bone Formation during Arduous Military Training

Thomas J. O'Leary et al.

Summary: Supplementary energy can enhance bone formation, but the implications for skeletal adaptation and stress fracture risk are still unclear. The mechanism likely involves protecting markers of metabolic function, rather than reproductive or thyroid function.

Body mass does not reflect the body composition changes in response to similar physical training in young women and men

Stephen A. Foulis et al.

Summary: The U.S. Army Basic Combat Training (BCT) aims to prepare new recruits to meet physical demands of soldiers. This study quantified changes in lean mass and body fat induced by BCT in a large sample of men and women, showing significant effects on body composition despite minimal changes in total body mass. Overall, the 10-week sex-integrated physical training program positively altered body composition profiles of young adults.

Summary: This study found that the proprietary MMC movement screen test performed poorly in predicting the risk of musculoskeletal injury, and the test-retest reliability was also moderate. The system did not demonstrate the ability to accurately identify individuals at risk for MSKI.

Reproductive and metabolic adaptation to multistressor training in women

Robert M. Gifford et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the impact of real-world, multistressor training environment on reproductive and metabolic function in women undertaking basic military training. The findings revealed significant suppression of the HPG axis function without evidence of low energy availability, possibly due to increased insulin resistance. The results suggest a complex interplay of psychological and environmental stressors affecting the HPG axis during arduous training.

Impact of simulated military operational stress on executive function relative to trait resilience, aerobic fitness, and neuroendocrine biomarkers

Meaghan E. Beckner et al.

Summary: The study suggests that high trait resilience and aerobic fitness may help buffer the impact of stress on vigilance, while stress negatively affects circulating neuroendocrine biomarkers. Vigilance is compromised during stress, and certain biomarkers may require longer recovery periods.

Resilience as a Protective Factor in Basic Military Training, a Longitudinal Study of the Swiss Armed Forces

Sandra Sefidan et al.

Summary: The study found that recruits with higher resilience scores were more likely to reduce perceived stress and psychological distress during military training, achieving better military performance. However, there were no differences in resilience scores, perceived stress, and psychological distress between recruits who continued training and dropouts.

Applying Force Plate Technology to Inform Human Performance Programming in Tactical Populations

Justin J. Merrigan et al.

Summary: Force plate assessments are used to examine and monitor physical capabilities and movement strategies, rather than predicting injuries. Before using force plate technologies, users need to develop a data management plan, select appropriate force plates, and design testing protocols. These assessments can be integrated into existing testing, serve as separate testing batteries, or be conducted more frequently to monitor training adaptations and neuromuscular fatigue.
