ABSTRACT
This work analyzes the perception of military specialists in Physical Education on how physical preparation is implemented and could be optimized in the Armed Forces. It is a quantitative, descriptive study (N = 227) having created an ad hoc questionnaire to collect these perceptions. The results indicate that the facilitators believe that: i. The current physical preparation and its evaluation bear little relation to the possible operational contexts; ii. Health and military instruction are perceived as the main training objectives; iii. The traditional training methodology does not seem to be the most suitable to achieve the operational objectives of the Units; iv. The most relevant physical qualities are swimming skill, strength, and endurance; v. The training contents during the mesocycle are still based mainly on running and calisthenics, performed at a moderate intensity; vi. Specific preparation before, during and after Operations should be increased. (AU)
RESUMEN
Este trabajo analiza la percepción de diplomados militares en Educación Física sobre cómo se implementa y podría optimizarse la preparación física en las Fuerzas Armadas. Es un estudio cuantitativo, descriptivo (N = 227) habiéndose creado un cuestionario ad hoc para recoger estas percepciones. Los resultados señalan que los diplomados opinan que: i. La preparación física actual y su evaluación tienen poca relación con los posibles contextos operativos; ii. La salud y la instrucción se perciben como los principales objetivos formativos; iii. La metodología tradicional del entrenamiento no parece ser la más idónea para conseguir los objetivos operativos de las Unidades; iv. Las cualidades físicas consideradas más relevantes son competencia en agua, fuerza y resistencia; v. Los contenidos de entrenamiento durante el mesociclo se siguen basando fundamentalmente en la carrera y la calistenia, realizados a una intensidad moderada; vi. Debe incrementarse la preparación específica antes, durante y después de las Operaciones. (AU)
