Pose Running Training Course Graduate Helps Raise ACFT Scores

Pose Method of Running Training Course graduate, Mike Tribble, helps raise ACFT scores by showing soldiers how to practice efficient running technique. In 2018, Mike Tribble, a former 10th Mountain Division (LI) Soldier, participated in a Pose Method of Running training course conducted by COL David Feltwell. The training course inspired Tribble to pursue the Certified Running Technique Specialist credential in order to be able to help others. Click here to read full story.

Since 2018, the Pose Method of Running Training Course has become available online.

THE HISTORY

Running has always been part of military training. It is an essential activity that is part of virtually everything else soldiers must do on regular basis. And it’s been known for years, that as an activity, running is also the most dangerous athletic movement solely due to the amount of injuries that soldiers sustain. More than 2 out of 3 injured soldiers face injuries from running. However, running itself is not the issue.

THE PROBLEM

Soldiers are trained and taught how to do everything else, but, when it comes to running, they were always left to figure things out on their own. Until now.

THE SOLUTION

Health and Holistic Fitness, or H2F is a big initiative by the Army to revamp training protocols. One of the major updates in the new doctrine is the addition of Running Skill (Pose Method) in FM 7-22 (Chapter 7).

Running Skill training is now available, on demand – forcewide – through the ArmyIgnitED program. Individual Soldiers can watch Pose Method running skill training videos online.

POSE METHOD® OF RUNNING + ARMY TRAINING

Members of all branches of the military have participated in the The Pose Method of Running courses since 2008. On October 1, 2020 the updated US Army Holistic Health And Fitness Field Manual (FM 7-22) and Holistic Health And Fitness Drills And Exercises Army Techniques Publications (ATP 7-22.02) were published and they included the Pose Method as the method for the running skill program and running technique drills.

The Pose Method of Running training course and the Certified Running Technique Specialist credential are aligned with the Soldier Common Core (MOS) and P5 Master Fitness Trainer (ASI).
