Load Carriage For The Tactical Operator: Impacts And Conditioning - A Review, Rob Marc Orr
Load Carriage For The Tactical Operator: Impacts And Conditioning - A Review, Rob Marc Orr
Rob Marc Orr
Tactical operators are required to carry loads as part of their occupations. Carriage of these loads have been associated with causing physical injuries to the carrier and impairing their ability to perform occupational tasks. One potential means of negating these risks associated with load carriage tasks is through physically conditioning the carrier. Through use of the Frequency, Intensity, Time and Type (F.I.T.T.) formula this review explored the literature to determine the optimal conditioning stimulus to enhance the resilience of tactical operators required to perform load carriage tasks. It was determined that a conditioning stimulus of one load carriage session every …

Load Carriage: Minimising Soldier Injuries Through Physical Conditioning - A Narrative Review, Rob M. Orr, Rodney Pope, Venerina Johnston, Julia Coyle
Rob Marc Orr
Background: With soldiers carrying increasing loads, physical conditioning may provide one means of reducing injuries and increasing the ability to train, maintain and retain soldiers.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to review the current literature on physical conditioning for load carriage and present the findings in a manner that will allow physical conditioning practitioners a means of applying them in a conditioning program.
Methods: Using key search terms, a literature search of academic databases (both civilian and military) was conducted, with additional relevant literature sought from military and civilian colleagues. Gathered papers were assessed against several key criteria …
