  5-14. The training period is best developed by identifying the objective (deployment, field training, or test
  for example) and working back from that point. The pattern of preparation to reach that goal can then be
  broken down into commonly used periods—base, build, peak 1, combat and peak 2, and recovery.
  Foundational abilities are maintained across these periods while each new period builds on the previous ones.
  Each domain is integrated in order to reach optimal readiness as the objective nears. For example, nutritional
  readiness manages the intake of calories in each period to match the energy expenditure of that period,
  knowing in advance what the ideal body weight is for optimal performance during the mission.
