High-intensity workout to optimize warfighter performance

WASHINGTON — A new high-intensity workout regimen promises to build strength and endurance. Ads tout dietary supplements as formula for getting stronger, smarter and even less-stressed-out.
A “how to” book presents a sure-fire way to bounce back from physical or emotional setbacks.
Getting to the bottom of that, and putting word out to the troops whose lives and missions depend on their ability to perform in demanding and often extreme conditions, is the mission of the Defense Department’s Human Performance Resource Center, Dr. Stephen Frost, the center’s director, told American Forces Press Service.
DOD stood up the center in September 2009 under the auspices of the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences to gather and develop solid science for warfighters, their leaders and their health care providers.
Part research arm, part information clearinghouse and education center, the center provides a single DOD focal point for human performance optimization, encouraging better coordination, collaboration and communication among the services and with other government agencies, Frost explained.
