Reimagining Military Physical Training: Strength as the Foundation of Anti-Fragility and Effectiveness
The physical readiness of recruits entering the military and U.S. service academies reflects broader societal health challenges. Many recruits arrive with insufficient physical fitness, being overweight or with general frailty – or a combination of these factors – issues that are further magnified by the demands of military training. An outdated reliance on endurance and conditioning in initial entry training, while neglecting muscular strength development, exacerbates these problems.
Barbells for Lifetime Health and Wellness – A Brief Review | Gregory Hess
The utilization of barbells for training begins to acknowledge a few fundamental concepts about the individual executing the training and the resultant adaptations barbells produce. An individual willing to commit the time and effort to both intelligently planning workout sessions and conducting these sessions is unique in today's lifestyle of comfort. At least that appears to be the case with most middle-class and upper-class U.S. citizens.
European recessions and Native American conflict
European immigration to the US is widely regarded as an important contributor to the development of the US economy over the last 250 years. Recessions in Europe often pushed Europeans to cross the Atlantic Ocean and migrate to the US in search of better economic opportunities (Sequeira et al. 2017).

Detailing the Use of the Starting Strength Method Within a Physical Fitness Curriculum by Gregory Hess | April 26, 2022 The methods, as detailed in Starting Strength: Basic Barbell Training 3rd ed., are best implemented with a small coach to lifter ratio for the most efficient and effective outcomes. With this understood and acknowledged, circumstances exist where knowledgeable coaches must operate in less-than-ideal instructional and training frameworks.
Optimization: It Doesn’t Mean What You Think It Means
On a rather regular basis I find myself reflecting on the military and collegiate fitness venues that surround me, what I hear from my professional peers, and what I have learned from both personal experience under the barbell and from the Aasgaard Company. All too often a scene from The Princess Bride comes to mind, with the quotation: “You Keep Using That Word.
European Recessions and Native American Conflict
We investigate the extent to which conflicts between Native American tribes and U.S. Army troops were caused by poor economic conditions in Europe from 1869 to 1890. We hypothesize that contractions in economic activity pushed many Europeans to move to the western United States in search of better economic opportunity.
Developing Corps Strength – An Appeal to the Service Academies for the Prioritization of Strength | Gregory Hess
Acknowledging strength as the most important physiological adaptation for human existence and performance is an initial step towards a service member’s physical readiness improvement [1]. This, however, generates the obvious question of “How does one train for strength?” As is usually the case with seemingly complex and fashionable topics, the simplest approach is the best.
OPINION: Are we cultivated to be entertained 24/7?
On the surface, we are creatures of habit and engagement. The former being an ever-growing concern in the younger generations over the older generations as we go into this new decade after the 2010s. As much as our generation may get stigmatized, it’s an ever-growing concern for all of us as COVID-19 continues.
OPINION: What is an expert nowadays?
What’s the best case for what makes someone an expert and someone not an expert in something? We could say that physically Lebron James is a basketball expert or Bennet Omalu is an expert in neurology based on the accolades presented and earned by them. Furthermore, we could proclaim that a professor with the letters “Dr.” in front of their name makes them esteemed individuals in their field and experts in their subject area to hold that status.

Hess: Tax reform proposal would harm college students
Should the tax on private college endowments become law, Wabash will be forced to reduce scholarships, cut its workforce, or reduce wages. The Tax Reform and Job Acts bills crafted by the House and Senate in recent weeks — largely in small, closed-door meetings — contain new taxes that seriously jeopardize the quality of education that colleges like Wabash College provide for their students. The original bills would have imposed a 1.4 percent excise tax on college and university endowment returns.

Wabash College president: Tax code proposal hurts private colleges
Buried deep within the Republican-sponsored tax code proposed last Thursday — on page 75 — is language that could seriously jeopardize the quality of education that colleges like Wabash College provide for their students. These tax law changes are supposed to help working middle class families. At Wabash, 40 percent of our students are first-generation college students and about one-third are eligible for federal Pell Grants based on family income.
