reportActive / Technical Report | Accesssion Number: AD1160552 | Open PDF

Abstract:

Musculoskeletal injury (MSKI), overweight and obesity, and mental illness reduce readiness. The catalyst for Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) H2F aims is to address the underlying causes implicated in these conditions by taking a holistic approach to Total Army (active duty, reserve, and Army National Guard components) readiness. Five pillars support H2F: mental readiness, sleep readiness, nutritional readiness, physical readiness, and spiritual readiness [1]. The aim of this document is to summarize the most relevant information from FM 7-22 Holistic Health and Fitness for the aviation community. The document provides guidance to unit-level leadership on the implementation of H2F and its concepts during its transition period. Much of the information in this report is a curated compilation of aviation relevant guidance from ATP 7-22.01, ATP 7-22.02, and FM 7-22. In addition to the H2F guidance selected from ATP 7-22.01, ATP 7-22.02, and FM 7-22, we present additional resources currently available from the U.S. Army's ecosystem of services. H2F provides Soldiers with education, coaching, mentoring, and outreach in an immersive environment to improve, restore, maintain readiness, build resilience, and enhance performance [1].
