  System
  The Holistic Health and Fitness (H2F) System is the organizational structure required
  to implement H2F doctrine across the Army to optimize Soldier lethality.
  Chapter 1
  Principles and Elements
  The H2F System is comprised of five critical elements: governance, program,
  equipment and facilities, personnel, and leader education. These elements are essential
  to the future success of Army readiness. They ensure and sustain Soldier readiness.
  These elements are driven by three governing principles: optimization,
  individualization, and immersion. This chapter discusses the principles and elements
  of the H2F System.
  PRINCIPLES
  1-1. The H2F System formalizes the way the Army trains, develops, and cares for Soldiers. This shift marks
  a change that will continue to evolve over the next twenty to thirty years. The H2F System builds both the
  underlying capability and capacity within the Soldier. Similar to professional athletes, Soldiers will optimize
  their individual performance potential and well-being by becoming stronger, faster, and more ready in both
  the physical and nonphysical domains. Stronger individuals ultimately produce stronger teams.
  1-2. It integrates the domains of H2F into tactics, techniques, and procedures that represent a cultural shift
  from a focus on physical readiness to an expanded readiness paradigm that includes how Soldiers think, feel,
  and interact with their environment. An understanding of the Soldier has always been essential in the history
  of warfare. This doctrine describes the system of training and testing that prepares the Soldier for 21st century
  warfare. The H2F System directs the training of the whole Soldier—the body and the brain—using the most
  modern and best methods. This doctrine explains the “how” and the “why” of the Army’s approach to
  developing Soldier readiness—the foundation of every unit’s ability to deliver overmatch on the battlefield.
  It combines the sciences of health and fitness with the art of coaching and mentoring for individual program
  development, goal setting, motivation, and team building—the capabilities that provide the basis for
  collective proficiency.
  1-3. Commanders and other leaders ensure adherence to H2F doctrine through unit training plans and the
  priorities and execution of collective training to maximize the operational readiness of the unit. The principles
  that drive the H2F System are optimization, individualization, and immersion.
  OPTIMIZATION
  1-4. Optimization of the training program leads to the most rapid improvement in foundational Soldier
  readiness in the initial phase and the building of high levels operational readiness in the sustaining phase.
