Weight Measurements and Standards for Soldiers

Abstract

The purpose of this three-year study is to: 1) implement a computerized database to track the fatness and physical performance of Reservists assigned to the 94th RRC and 804th Medical Brigade; 2) provide the 94th RRC and 804th Medical Brigade with an environmental/internet-based intervention to increase health risk communication and promote healthy body weight/fatness and physical performance; 3) monitor the fatness and physical performance of the Reservists for two years following a one-year baseline period to evaluate the efficacy of the intervention; and 4) evaluate consumer satisfaction with the intervention.
