Medical Surveillance Monthly Report (MSMR). Volume 2, Number 2, February 1996

Abstract

This investigation concluded that, although the incidence of injury for women were significantly higher than for men, integrated training did not elevate the incidence of injuries for women. Furthermore, this study demonstrated that risks of injury for both men and women were high and that these risks could probably be lowered through modifications of training that would not adversely affect final physical fitness levels at the end of BCT. The next issue of the MSMR will discuss the association of physical fitness and injuries among men and women observed in this survey.
