Combat Conditioning
Building a Strong Foundation in General Fitness
The Combat Conditioning program for recruits at the Marine Corps Recruit Depots serves as an introduction to strenuous activity for many recruits. Recruits will conduct Combat Conditioning exercises almost every other day during recruit training.
The program has, as its goals, not only success as measured by the Marine Corps Physical Fitness Test, or PFT, but also those physical skills necessary to excel in a modern military environment and in combat.
The focus is on functional exercises, and uses a progressive method to build a strong foundation in general fitness.
The program increases core strength and upper body development through power movements and events like the obstacle and confidence course, MCMAP (Marine Corps Martial Arts Program), and 3, 5, 6, 7.5 mile conditioning hikes with individual load bearing equipment. Conditioning hikes increase the recruit's stamina and confidence.
