Foreword
Funding to develop this guide was received from Health Affairs,
Department of Defense (DoD). Our project was one of many health promotion
and prevention initiatives selected for funding. The selection of this project
indicated a need for resources and materials that address the health and
fitness needs of military personnel. We recognize that there are numerous
books, tapes and websites dedicated to physical fitness and performance
nutrition for the general public. However, our goal was to develop a
comprehensive resource that is specifically tailored to address the unique
physical fitness and nutrition requirements of Navy personnel. Our previous
publications include “
” and “
The Navy SEAL
”. We hope that the nutrition and fitness information
in this guide will help you achieve both your professional physical readiness
and your personal performance goals. A companion guide for use by health
promotion personnel is entitled “
Force Health Protection: Nutrition and
Exercise Resource Manual
.”

Peak Performance
Introduction
The mission of the Navy is to maintain, train and equip
combat-ready Naval forces capable of winning wars,
deterring aggression and maintaining freedom of the seas.
As documented in enclosure (1) of OPNAV6110.1E, it is the responsibility
of each service member to:
Maintain a lifestyle that promotes optimal health and physical
readiness.
Develop a regular, year-round, fitness program of aerobic,
flexibility, and muscular strength and endurance exercises using
resource information and the assistance of the Command Fitness
Coordinator (CFC) and recreational services departments.
This guide has been prepared to assist you in your efforts to gain or
maintain a high level of physical fitness by combining sound nutritional and
physical fitness practices. An overview of basic nutrition and physical fitness
programs including aerobic conditioning and strength training are provided.
Information for designing exercise programs for individuals at various levels
of physical fitness is provided in this guide. Because deployment is part of a
Navy career, the importance of nutrition and exercise in maintaining
physical readiness when deployed is discussed in Chapters 10 and 12. Also,
many people take nutritional supplements to enhance physical performance.
The benefits and risks associated with using performance enhancing
supplements is discussed in Chapter 14. In another chapter (Chapter 15)
women’s issues such as nutrition and exercise during pregnancy and
lactation are discussed. Moreover, resources used to prepare this guide,
Through Nutrition and Exercise

including websites for various Naval Commands and Civilian organizations
involved in health promotions, are provided in Appendix D.
Seek the assistance of health promotion staff in your command. They have
the knowledge and experience to help you attain your health and fitness
goals. We encourage you to use this guide and hope that the ideas presented
in Chapter 17 (Adopting Healthy Habits) will enable you to form healthy
eating practices and to exercise regularly.
