“…The influence of MSDs on overall health varies on the severity of the condition, the kind of MSD, and the individual's overall health (Itismita Mohanty et al 2019). MSDs may cause physical inactivity due to discomfort, stiffness, and reduced mobility (Hyoyeon Ahn et al 2020). People suffering with MSDs may struggle to do physical activities such as exercising, athletics, or even everyday tasks such as moving, walking, or sitting for a long time (Rafael E. Reigal et al 2020).…”

Musculoskeletal diseases can be dependent on numerous environmental and individual factors. The existing methods leave out several important factors during the calculation of risks. Hence, this paper has the purpose to create and examine a way for employees to estimate their own risk of developing musculoskeletal problems employing the Musculoskeletal Disease Risk Factor Assessment (MDRFA) approach. Exactly 112 male cement manufacturing workers participated in this cross-sectional investigation. Participants were interviewed to acquire data about their own possessions. Information on the objects was gleaned through perceiving their work and talking to them. Additionally, they were given the Cornell questionnaires for musculoskeletal pain and instructed to complete them out in Persian (CMDQ). A model was developed using Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) effect coefficients. This technique was verified using a linear regression analysis, and the final score was categorized using the Receiver Operating Characteristic (ROC). The musculoskeletal symptoms are seen to be considerably influenced by either the individual's own characteristics (total coefficient of 0.27) or by physical (total coefficient of 0.51) and psychological (total coefficient of 0.11). Items' computed coefficients were utilized to formulate the MDRFA equation. The ideal cut-off values for the final score of the approach were 14.32, 18.56, and 22.59, creating four distinct categories. The MDRFA approach could adequately explain 73% of risks, but the Rapid Entire Body Assessment (REBA) approach could only justify 51% of risks. Prediction of musculoskeletal disorders relies heavily on personal, physical and psychological characteristics. This methodology may allow for more precise prediction of the occurrence of certain diseases.

“…Physical fitness should be considered a fundamental aspect in terminating a student's functional capacity, (Medrano-Ureña et al, 2020). Ahn et al, (2020) in their research revealed that fitness is very important for cadets to follow basic military training. Likewise, the members of the student regiment should also consider physical fitness.…”

This study aimed to determine the characteristics of the physical fitness level of new members of the Pasopati student regiment. This study uses a survey method with test and measurement techniques. The population used were members of the Pasopati student regiment as many as 81 students. The sampling technique was carried out by purposive sampling so that a sample of 29 new members of the Pasopati student regiment was obtained. The instrument used in this study was the Indonesian Physical Fitness Test for adolescents aged 16-19 years. The data analysis technique used descriptive quantitative percentages. The results of the study show that the results of the research on the physical fitness of new members of the Pasopati Student regiment are known that the characteristics of physical fitness of new members of the Pasopati Student regiment can be described as (1) The physical fitness of new members of the male's Pasopati student regiment is included in the good category of 33.33%, (2 ) The level of physical fitness of new members of the female Pasopati student regiment is mostly in the good category as much as 60%, and (3) The physical fitness of all new members of the Pasopati Student regiment, both male and female, is included in the good category of 48.28%. Therefore, it is still very necessary to carry out intensive training to be able to improve physical fitness for new members of the Pasopati student regiment, especially speed, strength, and endurance exercises for the arm and shoulder muscles, and cardiorespiratory endurance because each member of the student regiment as the components of the state's defense and security reserves requires excellent physical fitness

“…La Escuela Militar de Cadetes en Colombia, al igual que la mayoría de las academias militares a nivel mundial, tiene como rol fundamental en la sociedad, la formación de los futuros oficiales del Ejército, cuya educación impartida se enfoca en las áreas del conocimiento militar como son el desarrollo y mantenimiento de un acondicionamiento físico adecuado, valores sobre ideología nacional, conceptos de seguridad y defensa nacional que son cualidades que los cadetes deben cultivar e interiorizar (-Escuela Militar de Cadetes José María Córdova, s. f.; Ahn et al, 2020). Para alcanzar el objetivo de crear una cultura de mejorar y mantener un acondicionamiento físico adecuado, en el cuarto año de estudios militares, se realiza el Curso Avanzado de Combate (CAC), en donde los cadetes permanecen inmersos durante ocho semanas en un escenario que simula y recrea un ambiente hostil cercano a las condiciones climáticas, locativas y de exposición a las que normalmente se ven sometidos en la vida real en el área de operaciones.…”

El Ejército Nacional de Colombia garantiza la formación de sus alumnos a partir del curso avanzado de combate, que simulan operaciones militares reales. Este artículo busca determinar el efecto del curso avanzado de combate sobre cualidades físicas y antropométricas en alumnos de la Escuela Militar. Para ello se realizó un estudio observacional, descriptivo con componente analítico, cuyos sujetos fueron medidos antes y después del Curso de Combate. La muestra incluyó 113 participantes, 26 mujeres y 87 hombres con edades promedio de 22 ± 1,3 años, pertenecientes a la Escuela Militar de Cadetes de Colombia. Las variables que se midieron fueron peso, talla, perímetro de cintura e Índice de masa corporal, el VO2 máximo indirecto con el test de Leger, la fuerza máxima del cuadrante superior con el press banca acoplado al sistema T-Force®, fuerza prensil y de espalda con dinamometría y la flexibilidad con el test Sit and Reach. Se evidenciaron cambio significativo: controladas por género: perímetro de cintura p <.001, IMC p = .000847, flexibilidad p =.0147, dinamometría de espalda p = 5.12e-05 y la variable RM p = 9.26e-06; controlando por género y lateralidad: fuerza prensil izquierda p <.001. Se logró evidenciar una reducción del IMC y perímetro de cintura. Existe un incremento de la fuerza isométrica extensora de tronco con disminución de la flexibilidad lumbar e isquiotibial, generando rigidez, estabilidad del tronco permitiendo soportar posturas y cargas. Se presentaron mejoras de fuerza máxima en miembros superiores y fuerza prensil izquierda, mejorando la capacidad de mantener cargas. Abstract. The National Army of Colombia guarantees the education of their students from advanced combat courses, which simulate real military operations. This article seeks to determines the effect of the advanced combat course on physical qualities and anthropometric characteristics in students of the Military School. For this, an observational, descriptive study with an analytical component was carried out, whose subjects were measured before and after the Combat Course. The sample included 113 participants, 26 women and 87 men with an average age of 22 ± 1.3 years, belonging to the Colombian Military Cadet School. The variables that were measured were weight, height, waist circumference and body mass index, the maximum indirect VO2 with the Leger test, the maximum force of the upper quadrant with the bench press coupled to the T-Force® system, prehensile and back strength with dynamometry and flexibility with the Sit and Reach test. Results: The following variables showed change: controlled by gender: waist circumference p <.001, BMI p = .000847, flexibility p = .0147, back dynamometry p = 5.12e 05 and the variable RM p = 9.26e-06; controlling for gender and laterality: left grip strength p <.001. There was a reduction of BMI and waist circumference and significant increase in isometric trunk extensor force with decreased lumbar and hamstring flexibility, which generates rigidity, stability of the trunk allowing to support postures and loads. Students developed superior levels of maximum strength in upper limbs and left prehensile strength, improving the ability to hold loads.
