OVERVIEW: This template is designed to allow individuals to develop and tailor a Physical Training Plan to an individual's unique training

requirements, timeline, and tempo. This template uses the framework established by the High Intensity Tactical Training (HITT) Program, with the options to include other physical training events (e.g. MCMAP, Water Survival Training, Commanders Choice) as needed/required. The HITT program is a comprehensive combat-specific strength and conditioning program that complements a Commanders/Individual Marines combat conditioning program. Decision 1: Deployment Cycle Phase: To promote long term training improvements and avoid over training, the HITT program is periodized and split into specific phases, each with their own objectives and set of training parameters. The overall training program is split into set phases and consists of the: Pre-Deployment Period Deployment Period Post-Deployment Period Each Period has applicable HITT programs. Individuals should first determine which Phase is applicable, and then select from the corresponding HITT programs (e.g. If deployed, individuals should use the Combat HITT predominently).

Decision 2: Select a HITT Program: HITT Consists of 3 different exercise programs, each of which uses with different exercises, objectives, and equipment requirements. As a second decision, individuals should select those HITT programs desired for inclusion in an Individual PT Plan, with the chart above serving as a strongly recommended guide. Decision 3: Identify Beginning Fitness Level

Each HITT module consists of 25 pre-designed workouts, progressing in difficulty as the workouts advance from 1 to 25. When designing a fitness program, units should determine a beginning fitness level, adjusting the plan to meet evolving fitness levels.
Decision 4: Determine Desired PT Plan Duration and any periods of Non-Availability Individuals should determine how many weeks they desire the PT Plan to cover. The template contains rows for up to 26 weeks, although more can be included. Additionally, Marines should identify those periods in which PT will not occur (e.g. due to field training or exercise participation), and enter "None" for those periods. Decision 5: Determine PT Frequency This is a simple determination on how many PT sessions are desired per week. Decision 6: Inclusion of Additional PT Events The template provides options for including MCMAP, PFTs, CFTs, Swimming, or Individual Choice as additional PT options beyond the HITT Program. An additional option is the HITT Workout of the Day (WOD), included on the Building the Template This Individual PT template is intended to support the specific material available from the Physical Readiness Guide Website.
