  14-33. Equipment and schedules in table 14-7 (beginning on page 14-16) and table 14-8 support the
  following guidelines for FTU commanders to develop their ACFT improvement schedules:
  * First week FTU Soldiers follow the week 1 schedule.
  * Second week FTU Soldiers follow the week 2 schedule.
  * First week FTU Soldiers will be given two days of rest prior to taking their first ACFTs in the
  FTU.
  * For Soldiers requiring 3-4 weeks to pass the ACFT, the intensity of training is sustained, but
  physical training recovery is emphasized over an increase in weight, repetitions, and distance.
  * Weekends will be rest or recovery days prior to the Monday ACFT.
  * Strength-focused days alternate with endurance days.
  * Non-impact ETMs and aquatic training will be included.
  * The schedule is includes instruction time for ETMs, new drills and exercises, and aquatic
  conditioning.
  * Joint and muscle mobilization (RD and PMCS) will be included after each session.
  * A second session per day provides for mobility, running and lifting skill improvement.
  14-34. Table 14-8 itemizes the equipment required to conduct the templated physical training. The two-
  week schedule in table 14-7 (on page 14-16) can be repeated for Soldiers who need more time to meet Army
  ACFT standards.
