摘要

In today's high-intensity Air Force operations, Airmen are often required to perform demanding cognitive and physical tasks simultaneously, or in close concert (e.g., Air Force Explosive Ordinance Disposal) [1]. However, most Air Force training programs [e.g., squadron physical training (PT)] do not account for these operational requirements, and thus may not optimally instill the combined skills that are required of Airmen to perform their jobs efficiently and effectively. To address this issue, we have initiated a research and development program that seeks to create and validate specific exercises, routines, and comprehensive workout programs that integrate cognitive ("brain") training with contemporary PT exercises (e.g., performing body squats while concurrently tracking incoming information to improve lower body strength and working memory capacity). This initiative is inspired by, 1) findings indicating a positive relationship between specific modes of physical exercise (e.g., agility drills and Tai Chi) and cognitive performance (e.g., attention and working memory) [2, 3], 2) growing research interest in the effects and application of "brain training" [4], and 3) the Air Force's stated goal of developing personalized health and human performance technologies [5]. To accomplish this, we are currently developing training exercises and routines based on knowledge of operator physical and cognitive requirements obtained from quantitative and qualitative reports, surveys and interviews. These requirements are then distilled and paired in creative and practical ways to generate exercises and workout routines that can be instantiated effectively and efficiently into daily PT sessions performed in garrison at base fitness centers, at home, or down-range. Here, we share some of the exercises and routines we have developed, describe the philosophy and theoretical framework of our initiative, and provide a glimpse into future research in this area.
