Para 1-20 To prepare Soldiers to meet the physical demands of their profession, a system of training must focus on what? | the development of strength, endurance and mobility, plus the enhancement of the body’s metabolic pathways |
Para 1-20 Standards are achieved through precise control of what four things? | 1. Prescribe appropriate intensity and duration to which Soldiers perform PRT 2.
