Body Armor, Performance, and Physiology During Repeated High-Intensity Work Tasks.

This study examined the effect of body armor during repeated, intermittent high-intensity simulated military work. Twelve males performed 11 repetitions of a military style circuit, wearing no armor on one occasion and full armor (~17 kg) on another. Performance was measured by the time to complete...
