Fitness, sports and the Canadian Armed Forces / edited by Lieutenant-Colonel Jeff Stouffer and Commander Dave Woycheshin.: D2-371/2017E-PDF
"Military employment demands that military members be physically fit. Although this simple truth is universally understood, it is clear that to ensure that Canadian Armed Forces personnel are physically fit requires clear guidance, education, and unwavering leadership support. This volume brings together some of the key agencies responsible for the development, execution, and maintenance of fitness and sports programs and it highlights existing and emerging challenges. It is intended to not only report on the Canadian Armed Forces fitness and sports programs and the advantages of having a physically fit force, but to inform leaders on how they can establish the necessary conditions to create a fitness culture. Military members should treat maintaining and improving their physical fitness with the same level of dedication as they do to maintaining and improving their occupational and operational skills"--Preface, p. iii.
