Standardized Physical Training Activities

The activities of your standardized physical training session (speed

are specified on the physical training schedule. See training schedules

tab for speed running, sustained running, Conditioning Drill 2 and

Conditioning Drill 3 tabs.

STANDARDIZED

PHYSICAL

TRAINING

SESSION

Standardized Cool–down

The cool–down serves to gradually slow the heart rate and helps

prevent pooling of the blood in the legs and feet. You should begin

the cool–down by walking until your heart rate returns to less than

100 beats per minute (BPM) and heavy sweating stops.

The cool–down should last approximately 10 minutes and occur

immediately after the activities of the standardized physical training

session. The performance of The Stretch Drill makes up the cool–down

for ALL physical training sessions. The cool–down safely brings you

back to your pre–exercise state after performing vigorous conditioning

activities. The Stretch Drill provides exercises that are designed to

improve flexibility in most major muscle groups of the body. These

static stretches involve slowly stretching muscles and then holding that

position for an extended period of time.
