摘要
Aircrews within the US Air Force Special Operations Command play a unique role on the battlefield. The physical demands of different aircrew positions can be static and dynamic and require sufficient levels of physical fitness for optimal physical and cognitive performance. This article presents a needs analysis highlighting the occupational demands of the aircrews to fully inform strength and conditioning program designs. In addition, a proposed testing protocol is provided to obtain objective measures required for the appropriate design and progression of training programs.
