关于体能训练对轻步兵部队在受伤和时间损失方面的影响的可靠数据很少。这项研究前瞻性地评估了一支轻步兵部队（n = 181），并对其进行了一年的步兵训练和作战跟踪。 55% 的士兵 (n = 101) 遭受过一次或多次伤害。 88% 的伤害是与训练相关的，导致 1,103 天的有限责任。下肢过度使用损伤是最常见的损伤类型。骨折在有限责任天数中所占比例最大。本研究确定的训练相关损伤的危险因素是吸烟、高体脂率；体重指数极高或极低、耐力水平低以及肌肉耐力水平低（仰卧起坐）。 Logistic回归显示吸烟和耐力水平低是训练损伤的独立危险因素。这些数据表明，步兵部队训练相关伤害的发生率很高。确定了许多可改变的伤害风险因素，这表明其中许多伤害是可以预防的。
Reliable data on the impact of physical training on light infantry units in terms of injuries and time loss are sparse. This study evaluated a light infantry unit (n = 181) prospectively and followed it throughout one year of infantry training and operations. Fifty-five percent of the soldiers (n = 101) experienced one or more injuries. Eighty-eight percent of the injuries were training-related conditions, which resulted in 1,103 days of limited duty. Lower extremity overuse injuries were the most common type of injury documented. Fractures accounted for the greatest number of days of limited duty. Risk factors for training-related injuries identified by this study were cigarette smoking, high percentage of body fat; extremely high or low body mass index, low endurance levels, and low muscular endurance levels (sit-ups). Logistic regression showed that cigarette smoking and low endurance levels were independent risk factors for training injuries. These data indicate that the incidence of training-related injuries in infantry units is high. A number of modifiable injury risk factors were identified, suggesting that many of these injuries may be preventable.
