Holistic Health & Fitness

H2F is a capabilities-based, task and environment focused, Human Performance Optimization (HPO) program. HQDA EXORD 149-19 directs the Total Army to implement the H2F System. For the Active Component (AC), H2F provides Soldiers direct access to specialized medical and mental health care providers, athletic trainers, and strength coaches at the brigade level. The ARNG model will not mirror the AC model, while still accomplishing the desired end state of improving physical fitness, injury avoidance and recovery, nutritional health, and mental/spiritual resilience.

The ARNG achieves H2F Systems goals of improving Soldier readiness and lethality, optimizing physical/non-physical performance, reducing injury rates, improving rehabilitation after injury, and increasing overall effectiveness through a Directorate enabled and State/Territory led approach which accounts for ARNG unique requirements, opportunities, constraints. The ARNG will accomplish this through a blend of material solutions, subject matter expertise, federal and state resources, and health care professionals.

Enhancing the Innovation Ecosystem: 75th IC ignites presence at 2022 Fed Supernova

Senior leaders from the 75th Innovation Command developed key partnerships with entrepreneurs, academic institution and service members representing cutting edge commands from sister branches during the 2022 Fed Supernova Sept. 27-29, 2022, at the Omni Hotel in Austin, Texas.

The 75th IC also earned a seat at a panel during the Fed Supernova conference Sept. 29. Brig. Gen. Heather Reuter, deputy commanding general, 75th IC, joined Texas university system administrators with an extensive background in national security to discuss how academic institutions partner with the Department of Defense to protect America's interests, people, and principles founded on freedom and diversity.

Reuter emphasized that academia is an essential force multiplier that brings enhanced value to the Army Modernization Enterprise. She also mentioned that the 75th IC's mission to enhance the Future Force hinges on developing breakthroughs in robotics, machine learning, artificial intelligence, and other cutting edge technology theorized, tested, and improved by members of academia.

The panel was one of dozens of formal presentations and discussions conducted at Fed Supernova. Sponsored by Capital Factory, the three-day conference connects entrepreneurs, government and industry together to collaborate on dual-use solutions that put commercial technology in the hands of the Department of Defense. Reuter and other 75th IC leaders discussed ideas with their private, academic and federal counterparts about how the Army Reserve can support the future force through enduring partnerships founded on innovation, collaboration and creativity.

The ARNG will approach H2F as a three phased operation, including defining requirements, experimentation, and implementation. The ARNG H2F implementation strategy is not a universal “one size fits all” approach, States and Territories are afforded the flexibility to experiment through the planning process. FY21 is a planning year for States/Territories to establish those requirements; ARNG requirements will be determined through collaborative, scientific, evidence based research and experimentation. States/Territories conduct market research, small scale pilots, and analysis IOT determine their specific requirements for H2F implementation. Concurrently, ARNG G3 Training Division (TR) will institute a multi-functional working group of industry experts, collegiate human performance centers, and Army professionals to enable collaboration and requirements development. This targeted and individualized approach ensures the collective ARNG requirement possesses relevance, scalability, ease of implementation, effectiveness, and efficiency across the force. The ARNG will report the requirement findings to the Chief of Staff of the Army (CSA) NLT 30 SEP 2021.
