Open the Airway and Restore Breathing Breathing Process Assessment of and Positioning the Casualty FM challenges leaders to train as they will fight - train as a full-spectrum force, but not lose sight of the first priority of the Army, which is to fight and win the nation's wars. FM sets out to change the Army mindset.

Army leaders must think differently about training and leader development in an Army that must be capable of conducting simultaneous offense, defense and stability or civil-support operations.

The manual's four chapters address the breadth and depth of Army training concepts - the "what" of Army training. It provides examples of concepts in FM training lessons, examples and best practices for implementing the concepts; and solutions to training challenges. With the release of FM , the sustainment doctrine introduced in FM is now expanded to incorporate a broader approach to sustaining the fighting force.

In the same way that FM redefined the operational environment, FM describes how sustainment is conducted in that environment. FM discusses command and control from a sustainment commander's perspective. Linked to FM , it covers the art of battle command and introduces the eight principles of sustainment - integration, anticipation, responsiveness, simplicity, economy, survivability, continuity and improvision - which guide commanders in the operations process.

One of the most notable changes is the title of the manual from combat service support to sustainment. In accordance with FM , the terms combat arms, combat support and combat service support are no longer used in Army lexicon.

Starting Position The Soldiers will face away from the start line, grasp the medicine ball 10 pounds with both hands at hip level and stand with both heels at but not on or over the start line. Grasp the ball firmly and as far around the sides of the ball as possible. Record Throws As directed by the grader, the Soldier in lane one executes throw one.

Soldiers are permitted several preparatory movements flexing at the trunk, knees, and hips while lowering the ball between their legs. When directed by the grader, the Soldier in lane two executes throw one.

Soldiers will have two record attempts on the Standing Power Throw. Soldiers in lanes one and two will alternately execute record throw one and two.

As directed by the grader, the Soldier in lane one executes the first record attempt. When directed by the grader, the Soldier in lane two executes first record attempt. A record attempt will not count if a Soldier steps on or beyond the start line or falls to the ground. If a Soldier faults on the first record throw, they will receive a raw score of 0. If a Soldier faults on the second record throw, they will receive a raw score of 0. This Soldier will be allowed one additional attempt to score on the SPT.

If the Soldier faults on all three record throws, they will receive a raw score of 0. If a Soldier has a valid score on either record the first and second throw, they will not be allowed a third attempt. Once the Soldier has attempted two record throws, they will move onto the SPT lane to retrieve the medicine balls for the next Soldiers, and then return to the back of the line.

Although Soldiers are required to execute two record throws and both record throws are recorded, only the longer of the two throws will count as the record score.

The start line grader will circle the best score. The HRP is an upper body endurance test that represents repetitive and sustained pushing used in combat tasks. The chest and front of the hips and thighs will be on the ground.

The ankles will be flexed. The head does not have to be on the ground. Soldiers may adjust their feet during the test event as long as they do not lift a foot off the ground. Movement 2 After the elbows are fully extended and the Soldier has reached the up position, the Soldier will bend their elbows to lower the body back to the ground. The chest, hips and thighs should touch down at the same time.

The head or face do not have to contact the ground. Movement 3 Arm Extension HRP — immediately move both arms out to the side straightening the elbows into the T position. After reaching this position, the elbows bend to move the hands back under the shoulder. Movement 4 Regardless of the HRP protocol, Soldiers must ensure their hands are flat on the ground with the index fingers inside the outer edges of the shoulders returning to the starting position.

This completes one repetition. The Soldier will make an immediate movement to place their hands back on the ground to return to the starting position. The SDC is a test of strength, endurance, and anaerobic capacity, which are needed to accomplish high intensity combat tasks that last from a few seconds to several minutes.

Conduct 5 x 50 meter shuttles for time - sprint, drag, lateral, carry and sprint. The grader is positioned to see both the start line and the 25m line. If the Soldier fails to touch the 25m line with hand and foot, the grader watching the 25m turn line will call them back. Drag Soldiers will grasp each strap handle, which will be positioned and resting on the sled behind the start line; pull the sled backwards until the entire sled crosses the 25m line; turn the sled around and pull back until the entire sled crosses the start line.

If the entire sled does not cross the 25m or start line, the grader watching the 25m turn line will call them back. Lateral After the entire sled crosses the start line, the Soldier will perform a lateral for 25m, touch the 25m turn line with foot and hand, and perform the lateral back to the start line.

The Soldier will face the same direction moving back to the 25m start line and returning to the start line so they lead with each foot. If the Soldier fails to touch the 25m turn line with hand and foot, the grader watching the 25m turn line will call them back. Graders will correct Soldiers if they cross their feet. Carry Soldiers will grasp the handles of the two pound kettlebells and run to the 25m turn line; step on or over the 25m turn line with one foot; turn and run back to the start line.

If the Soldier drops the kettlebells during movement, the carry will resume from the point the kettlebells were dropped. If the Soldier fails to touch the 25m turn line with their foot, the grader watching the 25m turn line will call them back. The LTK assesses the strength of the Soldiers grip, arm, shoulder and trunk muscles. These muscles assist Soldiers in load carriage and in avoiding injuries to the back. The PLK is an alternate assessment that may be used.

The plank helps build core strength that promotes back health and helps reduce injuries. LEG TUCK: Complete as many leg tucks as possible; maintain a relative vertical posture while moving the hips and knees up and down without excessive swinging. Graders may assist Soldiers up onto the bar.

The grip is the alternating grip recommend placing the dominant hand closest to the head. The body is perpendicular with the bar, however the alternating grip will cause the body to rotate outward slightly. Legs and feet may not be crossed; feet must be off the ground with knees bent if necessary.

Flexing the elbows assists with this movement. The right and left knees or thighs must touch the right and left elbows, respectively. The grader must observe both knees or thighs in contact with both elbows for the Soldier to receive credit for the repetition.

The Soldier will return under control to the straight-arm position, elbows straight, to complete each repetition. If the elbows remain bent, the next repetition will not count. The Soldier does not have to be completely still. Small, inconsequential, or passive movement of the body and twisting of the trunk is permitted. Deliberately swinging the trunk and legs to assist with lifting the knees is not permitted and will cause the subsequent repetition to not count.

The event will be terminated when the Soldier voluntarily stops or involuntarily drops from the bar. Using the vertical posts to rest or push from will also be grounds for termination. The run event measures aerobic endurance, which is required for conducting continuous operations and ground movements on foot. Higher aerobic endurance allows the body to recover quickly in preparation for executing other physically demanding tasks that may arise during a ground movement, such as reacting quickly to enemy contact.

The two mile run can be completed on an indoor or outdoor track, or an improved surface such as a road or sidewalk.

The 2MR cannot be tested on unimproved terrain. The rest period begins when the last Soldier in the group completes the LTK. The start and finish line will be near the same location as the test site for the other five test events. Out-and-back or lap track courses are authorized. Safety Tips Do not move hips above the shoulders. Prevent excessive rounding of the shoulders. Prevent knees collapsing inwards.

Do not drop the weights.
