1 Proposal for Revised AFT requirements in the IGR A Final Revised Position Paper for Consideration For SGAUS MEDICAL ACADEMY AUG 23 RD
2 PREAMBLE The INDIANA GUARD RESERVE (IGR) fitness test currently matches the US ARMY fitness standards for sit-ups, push-ups and a 2-mile run. (Soldiers are scored based on their performance in three events consisting of the push-up, situp, and a two-mile run, ranging from 0 to 100 points in each event. A minimum score of 60 in each event is required to pass the test. The soldier's overall score is the sum of the points from the three events. If a soldier passes all three events, the total may from 180 to 300.) The IGR has two methods of assessing physical fitness. One uses the U.S. Army fitness standards. The other is the completion of a two-and-a-half mile walk in NUMBER OF MINUTES or less. The latter method takes into account, that the many of the IGR soldiers may not be able to or may not desire to maintain the more rigorous fitness life styles required of the active and reserve military forces. However, many of the IGR soldiers wish to maintain a lifestyle that supports a balance upper body, core, lower body and cardiovascular fitness. These soldiers elect to be tested according to the Army standards, with sit ups, push-ups and a timed two-mile run. Election of this fitness standard is exemplary and should be encouraged. However, the evaluation standards must be both safe and fair. Because nearly all regular and reserve army soldiers separate from the service after age 62, the Army fitness standards are calculated by professional exercise physiology and medical staff for age levels up to and including 62-years-old. The standards take into account the effects of advancing age on physiological performance, and base exercise repetition numbers and completion times on the soldiers' ages. The IGR allows soldiers to continue to serve until the age of 75. Unfortunately, because official Army fitness standards are not currently available beyond age 62, all soldiers above the age of 62 are required to perform at the fitness level required of 62-year-olds. The assumption that this is a safe or fair procedure is contrary to the established Army policy of accounting for incrementally decreasing performance levels for soldiers advancing in age from 18 to 62. This paper proffers that, to continue to encourage whole-body fitness of IGR members over the age of 62, without endangering their health with unreasonable performance demands, IGR should develop performance standards adjusted to include levels appropriate for this group. The standards should be developed by qualified professionals. 2
3 The Army's over-40 cardiovascular screening program (CVSP) does the following: Identifies soldiers with a risk of coronary heart disease. Provides guidelines for safe, regular CR exercise. Gives advice and help in controlling heart-disease risk factors. Uses treadmill testing only for high-risk soldiers who need it. Soldiers who reached age 40 before 1 January 1989 must be cleared through the cardiovascular screening program before taking a record APFT. Prior to their CVSP evaluation, however, they may still take part in physical training to include diagnostic APFTs unless profiled or contraindications to exercise exist. All soldiers must undergo periodic physical examinations in accordance with AR and NGR These include screening for cardiovascular risk factors. The IGR has no mechanism for such risk aversion procedures. The upper age limit for the sliding scale in the US Army is 62 years of age. Since the IGR allows service beyond that age soldiers are nevertheless expected to meet the 62-year-old standard for the fitness requirements. This applies to sit ups push-ups and a 2-mile run. CURRENT RISK It is the opinion of MEDCOM that holding soldiers for 13 years to the 62-year-old fitness test might be contra-indicated from a safety standpoint 1 including cardiac risk and maximal heart rate demands. Below we will provide data from the cardiac literature including the longitudinal study from the classic Framingham Study (Brigham and Women s Hospital, Harvard Medical School). These will show the aging heart parallels the maximal heart rate and cardiac output suggesting support for our fear of cardiac stress in those subjected to fitness tests applicable to soldiers ten years younger. The recommendation will therefore 1 In fact, I pulled out 4 IGR soldiers this AT due to BP and irregular heart rhythms, EKG and HR issues prior to the run, even though they had been considered green at the MEDCOM intake medical a day before. 3
4 include a progressive lengthening of the run times along an exact regression along the army trajectory from 62 to 75 years of age. Over a third of IGR soldiers have cardiac issues including hypertension, and over half are overweight according to current BMI standards. 2 These issues make the revision of the standards more imperative so that IGR soldiers will not be put at risk. It is the primary mission of MEDCOM to provide a safe environment for all IGR soldiers by ensuring health and wellness while on training exercises and especially during the fitness test which is the most challenging drill they will endure on a non-emergency basis. The recommendations below therefore take into account the current state of health of the IGR as well as act in preventing possible cardiac related events. 2 Col. Agley provided the BMI statistics for each brigade as well which can be provided on request. 4
5 3 The latest recommendations from a US Government body for the older corps members includes the following: 1. Reduce run to 1.5 miles 3 I am grateful to LtCol Richard Friedman for providing me this study 5
6 2. Scores for 1.5 mile run: Men 3. Scores for Push Ups: Men 4. Scores for Sit ups: Men mile run: Scores for Women 6
7 6. Push Ups: Scores for Women 7. Sit ups: Scores for Women Based on these 2016 recommendations we are proposing a reduction in running distance to 1.5 miles for all IGR soldiers over 55 years of age. 7
8 Recommendation Based on the above government changes and medical evidence we are recommending a sliding scale to continue beyond the age of 62 until age 75 which reflects the capability of the aging heart WITHOUT RISK TO IGR SOLDIERS, and nevertheless in keeping with the tradition for physical fitness. Current US Army 2-mile run sliding scale:

11 Cardiological Studies: 7 All conclude the aging heart maximum rate declines in a steady state linear trajectory. We can therefore be safe in providing a progressive reduced target times by extending a regression curve for the 13 years after 62 for the IGR. Maximal Heart Rate Regression Curve
12 Since the regression is so linear we felt it appropriate and safe to apply the same decrease with age to the fitness test. *From a recent study 8 by Tanaka, Monahan and Seals.

14 1.5-Mile Run: Recommendations: MEN We are proposing a sliding scale linear increase in running times for the 13 years until IGR retirement age, using a simple linear regression/extrapolation curve from 62 years of age until mandatory retirement age of 75 (based on statistical analysis and regression analysis).

(min) Linear (min) This paper assumes that a linear extrapolation of the decrease in cardiac performance with age accurately reflects the decrease to age 75 and may, at least partially, underlie an expected depression of physical performance at the older age. It is understood that factors such as the age-related decline in mitochondrial function, that affect all ATP-dependent systems, may well underlie this decreased cardiac affect with age. The present paper suggests that, while the linear extrapolation of the age-related decrease in cardiovascular performance may not be accurate, especially at the higher ages closer to 75, it strongly suggests that safer and more fair fitness goals should be established for soldiers older than the age of 62. The present premise seems wiser than assuming a stable, constant level of cardiovascular function beyond the age of 62 and fixing the required fitness level at that point I acknowledge the work of LCol Richard Friedman for these caveats. 23
