army physical training manual: Spetsnaz: Scout Physical Training Manual Threat Analysis Group, 2019-01-10 This is a translation of a manual utilized by the Soviet Union to train soldiers in the techniques of infiltration, reconnaissance, and battlefield surveillance. It emphasizes the high standard the Soviet, and later, Russian military places on physical fitness as a fundamental requirement for mission success. The manual concludes with instructions for the layout and construction of specialized courses for perfecting the skills illustrated within this manual. These tactical courses have been found in Columbia, Chechnya, Afghanistan, Iraq, and Syria. FARC, Al Qaeda, and ISIS are known to use these tactical courses to train their recruits. Clearly these techniques are quickly spreading through conflict zones worldwide. The drills are simple, easy to learn, and easily retained and are well suited for training motivated but unskilled recruits. As the Spetsnaz say: 'Do more with less.' |

army physical training manual: Dr. Nicholas Romanov's Pose Method of Running Nicholas S. Romanov, 2002 Dr. Romanov's Pose Method Of Running brings his revolutionary ideas that changed the world of running to the professional athlete and amateur alike. In a very succinct and enjoyable manner, it teaches one to perform to the very best of his ability, using the Pose running technique. In ballet, or martial arts, one requires practice of technique. The same is true of running. Unless you are one of the lucky ones, like Haile Gebrselassie, Steve Prefontaine, or Michael Johnson, who were born with the perfect technique, you have to learn it. Until Dr Romanov's discovery there was no coherent theory on the subject. Running was practiced, but not taught as a skill. The Pose Method proposes to teach running as a skill with its own theory, concepts, and exercises. |
