Book excerpt: Who is stronger? The Marine who can run three miles in 18:00 minutes, complete 20 pull-ups, and 100 crunches, or the Marine that can run the obstacle course three times with combat gear in 15:00 minutes but cannot run three miles in 18:00 minutes or complete 20 pull-ups? Combat conditioning should be the primary fitness program of the Marine Corps because of the demands of the increased loads placed on the body and the strength needed to complete the physical tasks placed on Marines while under these loads. Every Marine would agree that some form of physical training is necessary to maintain a Marine Corps that is prepared to accomplish the tasks needed to win its battles. This physical training needs to encompass the whole Marine and not just the cardiovascular system. When done correctly the cardiovascular system will also benefit from implementing Combat Conditioning. The final result is a stronger Marine who is better prepared for the rigors of combat. This program is now in place at all entry-level facilities. All young Marines will be prepared to continue this challenging physical training program. It is our responsibility to ensure that our Marines are in the best physical condition to assist in bringing them home in one piece.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Marine Corps exists to fight America's battles and make Marines. This means that everything we do as Marines is focused on our preparation for combat. For these reasons, the Marine is the ultimate warrior who must be prepared for uncertainty. Unlike the professional athlete, a Marine cannot afford to “peak;” rather, a Marine must maintain an optimal fitness level at all times. A Marine's training must combine strength, power, speed, and agility in order to enhance martial skills that can be applied at the optimal moment in a combat environment. Combat has no quarters, halftime or known time element. Therefore, a Marine is required to fight in any terrain and under any climatic condition when facing the rigors of the modern battlefield. This volume on Combat Conditioning consists of various components of fitness, as well as, the programs that are part of the Marine Corps Martial Arts Combat Conditioning Program.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: U.S. Marine Combat Conditioning is a complete reproduction of the combat conditioning program that was completed by all World War II-era Officer Candidates while at OCS in Quantico, Virginia. Combat Conditioning is defined as the physical and mental conditioning of individual Marines for hand-to-hand combat and is an essential part of the progressive training of all Marines. In addition to conditioning the Marines physically, the program is designed to help them overcome inhibitions toward physical contact. The goal is not only to gain physical strength, agility, and endurance but also to develop confidence as a hand-to-hand fighter both with and without weapons. Additionally, this manual serves as the guide for individual Marine units when establishing their own combat conditioning programs. An invaluable part of U.S. military history, the lessons remain relevant even to-day. With over 200 photographs, U.S. Marine Combat Conditioning demonstrates—in vivid detail—the exercises and training techniques used by marines to prepare for combat as well as their proper application. The program incorporates mass physical drills, competitive games and exercises, and specially designed obstacle and assault courses. In addition to the rigorous physical training, it includes combat instruction in judo as well as the use of knives, bayonets, clubs, silent weapons, and pistols.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Marine Corps serves as the nation's expeditionary force in readiness. Combat conditioning in the Marine Corps is designed to prepare Marines to physically withstand the rigors of combat. All other goals of physical training must support the physical requirements of combat. This concept not only develops a more physically fit Marine, it also develops an individual who is mentally tough and confident. Marine Corps Order 6100.13 states every Marine must be physically fit regardless of age, grade, or duty assignment. Combat conditioning emphasizes the requirement for all Marines to adopt a healthy lifestyle and a lifelong commitment to fitness. This combination has a direct and positive impact on job performance and combat readiness. The objective of the Combat Conditioning is to offer physical conditioning information that will assist with appropriate, well-designed fitness programs and workouts that, when implemented, will benefit the Marine. The purpose of this lesson is to teach you the concepts of combat conditioning.

This book was released on with total page 438 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To the Marines: Welcome to Golf Company and the next step in your journey to becoming part of the world’s premier fighting force. Many have failed or never even attempted what you have accomplished thus far, take pride in that. However, your journey has just begun. At Marine Combat Training, we will train and educate you in the common combat skills necessary to operate within any environment. The basic skills you will learn were forged over two centuries of battles; they are timeless, and vital to yours and the Corps success, now and in the future. Our Combat Instructors will Lead, Teach, Mentor, and Guide every one of you, through a rigorous 29-day program of instruction. You will be taught by the most experienced, professional, and knowledgeable Staff Non-commissioned Officers and Non-commissioned Officers that the Marine Corps has to offer. These SNCO's and NCO's were hand-picked out of hundreds of applicants to come to the School of Infantry to be Combat Instructors. I highly encourage you to prepare your mind and body for this training, the knowledge you gain here will carry you throughout your Marine Corps career. During the training cycle, I expect you to commit yourself to your training and education by learning as much as you can from our Combat Instructors. Finally, when you graduate, I expect you to retain what you learned and uphold the time honored traditions of our Marine Corps. Remember that regardless of military Occupation Specialty, every Marine is a Riflemen first. Every Marine, regardless of his military occupation, is trained as a Rifleman. This concept has been around since the Marine Corps inception in 1775, when every man who volunteered was required to bring his own musket. In the early 1900s, as the Marine Corps grew and additional military occupations were created, the Commandant, General John A. Lejeune, ensured that every Marine, regardless of his Military Occupational Specialty (MOS), received marksmanship training. During the Korean War, the Marine Corps was the only service to create rifle companies entirely from cooks, drivers, and other non-infantry Marines. From this war, the proverbial saying, Every Marine a Rifleman was born. In the nineteen eighties, the Commandant, General Al Gray, recognized the need to train all Marines in more than just basic marksmanship, but in modern-day combat skills. The School of Infantry was assigned to conduct this training known as Common Skills because it is common to every Marine. These common skills allow every Marine, regardless of MOS, to act as Rifleman when called upon. MCT Battalion generates Marine Riflemen to possess a foundational understanding of, and their role in applying, the Marine Corps' warfighting ethos, core values, basic tenets of maneuver warfare, leadership responsibilities, mental, moral, and physical resiliency in order to contribute to the successful accomplishment of their unit's mission. New Rifleman Definition: A Marine Rifleman embodies the Marine Corps' warfighting ethos: offensively minded; lethal with their weapon mentally, morally, physically resilient; proficient in basic field craft; and possessing a foundational understanding of leadership and the basic tenets of maneuver warfare.

Book Synopsis Integrating Advanced Physical Training Programs Into the Marine Corps by :
Download or read book Integrating Advanced Physical Training Programs Into the Marine Corps written by and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Marine Corps is a fighting organization designed for one purpose: combat. Physical fitness has long been a part of the training regimen to prepare Marines for the rigors of combat. The importance of physical fitness was recently emphasized by the current Commandant of the Marine Corps, who stated that "As a fighting force, our ability to fulfill this commitment and accomplish the mission is dependent, in part, upon the fitness of our Marines." In response, the Marine Corps' top brass recently implemented a new training requirement known as the Combat Fitness Test (CFT) to emphasize the importance of physical fitness amongst Marines. While it is commendable to change the testing requirements, vis-a-vis the CFT, the Marine Corps has not done enough to improve its methods of physical training. The Marine Corps has not taken advantage of the ability to produce stronger, faster, and quicker Marines in a condensed time frame through the use of the various advanced physical training programs available to the public, such as P90X, CrossFit, and Nike's Speed, Power, Agility, Reaction, and Quickness (SPARQ) program. The Marine Corps should integrate these advanced physical training programs into its physical fitness program for a number of reasons: (1) to reduce the financial strain on Marines who are paying gym fees to utilize the equipment recommended by these programs; (2) to achieve qualitative physical fitness results in less time; and, most importantly, (3) to prepare Marines for the physical rigors of combat. The Marine Corps could obtain a legal understanding with the private companies that developed these programs to use their programs, but under its own terms, for example with equipment that is already in place in Marine Corps facilities. By coincidence, many of the advanced training programs (e.g., P90X, CrossFit, and SPARQ) offer training plans specifically tailored to provide the anaerobic short burst energy training required for the CFT and combat.

At SOI, Marines who have recently graduated from recruit training continue their education and training to become more proficient in the fundamentals of being a rifleman. Marines with a Military Occupational Specialty (MOS) of infantry are trained at the Infantry Training Battalion (ITB), while all non-infantry Marines are trained at the Marine Combat Training Battalion (MCT). There are two Schools of Infantry: Camp Geiger located in North Carolina and Camp Pendleton in California. The primary role of the School of Infantry is to ensure, first and foremost, that "every Marine a rifleman." All Marine Corps assets exists to support the rifleman on the ground, and every Marine is prepared to do whatever it takes to ensure the safety of the Marines to their left and right. Regardless of MOS, the ITB mission ensures every Marine has the capability to fulfill his or her duties while operating in a combat environment.

Book Synopsis Chain Reaction Training by : Ernest Emerson

Book excerpt: Don't buy this book if you are a quitter. It's not for you. You'll hate it, you'll dismiss it, and you won't see any results. If you're a quitter get out of here. Go to the yoga section.This is a book about hard-core physical training. It's about functional, combat strength and conditioning. It's not about losing weight or body building. It's about Warrior Strength.A warrior needs functional strength. A warrior needs Neanderthal strength, Cro-Magnon Strength, the strength that kept our ancestors alive when everything that existed in their world conspired to kill them, and only the strong survived.A warrior needs the strength that he can use to fight in combat, survive in combat, or save a teammate in combat. In terms of training, that's a whole different creature than a gym membership workout, a bodybuilding workout, or even what most would consider a hard training routine.Think about it like this. What if you need to sprint a quarter-mile over uneven terrain to rescue a teammate out of a downed Helo, sling him over your back and then carry him back a quarter-mile to a safe position. If you run out of gas or God forbid quit, then your buddy dies. You never want to be that guy. If you follow the Chain Reaction Training protocol you won't.Developed by Black Belt Hall of Famer and renowned tactical instructor Ernest Emerson, the Chain Reaction System is designed to build 100% usable, all-terrain, combat fitness and strength. Drawing on a lifetime of hands-on experience and knowledge, Emerson is interested in one thing only, optimal human performance.Just like in his combat classes, Emerson is concerned with getting students to perform at their true maximum potential, far beyond what they may think is the limit of their ultimate efforts.That is what is needed to survive, and prevail in combat. Life-and-death, hand to hand, combat consists of three fundamental components.1. The skills 2. The mindset 3. Physical strength and conditioningAll three of these have to be optimized in order to engage in combat with the confidence that you will win. And you know, confidence in combat is a huge factor. Without it you are guaranteed to lose.There's nothing that builds self-confidence to the degree that being strong and fit does. However, few outside of the Special Operations community, Naval Special Warfare (SEALs), or Olympic athletes ever experience the extreme fitness levels that these 1%ers do.A friend once asked, "Who do you think is the toughest S.O.B. on earth?" The answer? A 135 pound Marine, just out of boot camp. He is the strongest he has ever been. He is in the best condition he's ever been in, and he knows that in a fight, there's no other human being on earth that will run him out of gas. That is confidenceThe Chain Reaction System is a training regimen that will build that extreme level of fitness and, that extreme level of confidence.Based on a combination of functional strength, and core conditioning exercises, they are pushed to the extreme by completing a chain from start to finish without stopping. It pushes all three components of physical conditioning, the ATP system, the glycolic system, and the aerobic system to new limits. Limits beyond what you once thought you were capable of doing.Emerson explains in precise, simple, terms how the system works, why the system works, and then gives you a plan for setting up your own regimen, depending on what equipment or facilities you have available. It leaves you with no excuse for not being able to train. In fact, he provides you 25 days of Chain Reaction Routines, his own routines, which amounts to over a month's worth of training. So if you don't get the results promised, it will only be because of your own weak will and lack of resolve. Emerson leaves you with no excuse. It has been said that the greatest fear of growing old is that other men stop seeing you as being dangerous. The Chain Reaction Training System will keep you very dangerous.

Download or read book The Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test: The Need to Replace it with a Combat Fitness Test written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 14 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The United States Marine Corps exists to fight and win the nation's battles, and in order to do this Marines must be physically prepared to endure the rigors of combat. As an organization, the Marine Corps takes pride in that purpose, and that single reason is the driving force for nearly everything it does prior to deploying personnel into harm's way. The Marine Corps has directed units deploying to complete pre-deployment training, much of which simulates conditions or tasks that will be experienced or assigned once deployed. The most obvious of these pre-deployment requirements is Mojave Viper in which the scenario-based training nearly replicates many of the tasks a unit will be asked to accomplish, and during which battalions are evaluated on the performance of these tasks. Nevertheless not everything the Marine Corps does in garrison is directed toward preparing it for battle; the current physical fitness test (PFT) falls grossly short of any application to combat. As the current PFT does not adequately evaluate the individual infantryman's level of combat fitness it should be replaced with a combat fitness test.

This book was released on 2017-12-14 with total page 849 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: COMBAT HUNTER TRAINER COURSE Purpose: The purpose of the Combat Hunter Trainer Course is to produce a Marine capable of training a more ethically minded, tactically cunning, and situational aware Marine capable of proactively identifying threats in any environment. Scope: The Combat Hunter Trainer Course enhances the safety and security of Marines across the range of military operations, whether in garrison, on liberty, or on the battlefield. Marines are trained to observe and recognize human behaviors, patterns and trends that are indicative of a threat and to act on that threat quickly and decisively through an improved and matured decision-making process. The Marine receives training in planning, conducting, and evaluating training events to include classes on small unit training and unit training management. Combat Hunter training includes Introduction to Combat Hunter, Observation Devices, Criminal and Insurgent Networks, Decision Cycle, Enhanced Observation, KIM Technique, Introduction to Profiling, Heuristics, Profiling Domains, Terrorist Planning Cycle, Tactical Questioning, Analyze and Interpret Spoor, Individual Actions in a Tracking Team, Track Exploitation, Leading a Tracking Team, and Tactical Site Exploitation. DEFINITION AND MISSION OF THE COMBAT HUNTER. A combat hunter selects, uses, and maximizes the appropriate optics available to see objects and events, both hidden and distant. These optics range from the naked eye to advanced optical systems. A combat hunter, through attention to detail, establishes a baseline of an environment and detects the anomalies located within that environment. A combat hunter tracks humans and vehicles by reading the natural terrain. He pursues an armed enemy and gathers data that may suggest the enemy’s action and intent. The combat hunter is the creation of a mindset through the integration of enhanced observation, combat profiling, and combat tracking. This mindset will enable Marines to locate, close with, and destroy an elusive enemy that hides among the population and uses asymmetric tactics to attack our forces. By utilizing enhanced observation, combat profiling, and combat tracking, a Marine is more lethal, survivable, and tactically cunning. He becomes a force multiplier to his unit’s operations. OBSERVATION. Observation begins with the gathering and processing of information obtained through the senses. The five sensory systems are sight, hearing, smell, touch, and taste that allow information to be collected from the environment. Perception is the process that the mind uses to organize the sensory information into an understandable interpretation of the environment. Central to all these skills is a critically-thinking Marine whose decisions can be affected by numerous factors, both external and internal. The Marine refines his decision making capabilities by understanding the decision cycle process and his awareness of the physical and biological responses he goes through when faced with a dynamic situation. Refining these skills and understanding the effects they have on his mind and body make him more capable and more lethal.

Book excerpt: "For it is conspicuous that what the machine has failed to do right up to the present moment is decrease by a single pound the weight the individual has to carry on his back in war." S.L.A. Marshall's words still ring true today, and as an expeditionary force in readiness, the United States Marine Corps must be ready to conduct combat operations with these heavy loads in any clime and place. An aggressive combat conditioning program measured by analogous and realistic evaluations is critical to this readiness. Every Marine must train and be ready to meet the challenges of combat from the outset and sustain those operations indefinitely until victory is achieved. The Marine Corps' Combat Fitness Test (CFT) must evaluate Marines under a prescribed weight load to provide consistency with doctrinal Marine Corps combat training and philosophy, and accurately assess the combat functional fitness of every Marine.
