Primary findings indicate that there is ( a ) strong evidence that poor performance on a set distance run for time is a predictor for MSK-I risk in both genders ; ( b ) strong evidence that poor performance on timed shuttle runs is a predictor for MSK-I risk in males ; ( c ) moderate evidence in males and limited evidence in females that poor performance on a timed step test is a predictor of MSK-I risk ; and ( d ) limited or insufficient evidence that poor performance on the Cooper run test , maximal and submaximal aerobic grade d exercise tests , and the Conconi test are predictors of MSK-I risk in males or females or both .

Injury rates and injury risk factors among federal bureau of investigation new agent trainees
Background A one-year prospect i ve examination of injury rates and injury risk factors was conducted in Federal Bureau of Investigation ( FBI ) new agent training . Methods Injury incidents were obtained from medical records and injury compensation forms . Potential injury risk factors were acquired from a lifestyle question naire and existing data at the FBI Academy . Results A total of 426 men and 105 women participated in the project . Thirty-five percent of men and 42 % of women experienced one or more injuries during training . The injury incidence rate was 2.5 and 3.2 injuries/1,000 person-days for men and women , respectively ( risk ratio ( women/men ) = 1.3 , 95 % confidence interval = 0.9 - 1.7 ) . The activities most commonly associated with injuries ( % of total ) were defensive tactics training ( 58 % ) , physical fitness training ( 20 % ) , physical fitness testing ( 5 % ) , and firearms training ( 3 % ) . Among the men , higher injury risk was associated with older age , slower 300-meter sprint time , slower 1.5-mile run time , lower total points on the physical fitness test ( PFT ) , lower self-rated physical activity , lower frequency of aerobic exercise , a prior upper or lower limb injury , and prior foot or knee pain that limited activity . Among the women higher injury risk was associated with slower 300-meter sprint time , slower 1.5-mile run time , lower total points on the PFT , and prior back pain that limited activity . Conclusion The results of this investigation supported those of a previous retrospective investigation emphasizing that lower fitness and self-reported pain limiting activity were associated with higher injury risk among FBI new agents
