Conditioning Drill 1Ĭalisthenic exercises figure prominently in the U.S. During this initial phase, the exercise routine consists of standardized physical training sessions that include warmups, conditioning drills and a cool-down period.

New recruits and ROTC cadets must pass the Army Physical Fitness Test before advancing to the next level in soldier training.
