The Role of Physical and Physiological Capacities and Their Modification on the Tolerance to Various Stress Experienced by Air Force Personnel

Abstract

The final report addresses advances in anthropometric and physical conditioning that will improve physical fitness and orthostatic tolerance related to improvement in handling high sustained G (HGS) stress. Topics include: (1) Man, exercise and orthostasis, (2) Animal model response to HGS; and Man, thermal stress and physical performance. Five years of work are condensed in the report.
