Software for Control and Planning of the Physical Conditioning of Professional Military Personnel
Abstract
Introduction: The physical-military conditioning is one of the fundamental skills of the military professional, the planning and control of their directions must go through the new technologies use, allowing the conditioning optimization. The diagnosis plays a preponderant role, serving as a theoretical and methodological basis that justifies prospective actions in the future problems solution. Objective: To determine the knowledge, applicability and need level for a software for the planning and control of physical-military conditioning in the Ecuadorian army. Methods: Exploratory, descriptive-explanatory research, studying the criteria of 13 specialists in physical-military training. Results: The average score of the Knowledge level about applications or national software oriented to physical-military preparation of the Ecuadorian army (NCS) was 1.77 points (from very low to low), and about international software (NCI) of 4.08 points (high), the applicability level of software aimed at military physical conditioning in the Ecuadorian Army (NAS) obtained an average score of 4.62 points (between high and very high), the integration level of military physical conditioning software with components of sports preparation (NIAC) obtained a score of 4.23 points (high), and the need to create specialized software in the physical conditioning of the Ecuadorian armed forces (NCSE) obtained the highest score (4.77 points; very high). The concordance index between the consulted specialists was very acceptable (w=0.786). Conclusions: The importance, applicability and necessity of a software for the planning and control of the physical-military conditioning of the Ecuadorian army are evident.
