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 .

Epidemiology of stress fracture and lower-extremity overuse injury in female recruits.
PURPOSE The purpose of this prospect i ve study was to examine rates and risk factors for overuse injuries among 824 women during Marine Corps Recruit Depot basic training at Parris Isl and , SC , in 1999 . METHODS Data collected included training day exposures ( TDE ) , baseline performance on a st and ardized 1.5-mile timed run , and a pretraining question naire highlighting exercise and health habits . The women were followed during training for occurrence of stress fracture and other lower-extremity overuse injury . RESULTS There were 868 lower-extremity overuse injuries for an overall injury rate of 12.6/1000 TDE . Rates for initial and subsequent injury were 8.7/1000 and 20.7/1000 TDE , respectively . There were 66 confirmed lower-extremity stress fractures among 56 ( 6.8 % ) women ( 1.0/1000 TDE ) . Logistic regression modeling indicated that low aerobic fitness ( a slower time on the timed run ( > 14.4 min ) ) , no menses in six or more consecutive months during the past year , and less than 7 months of lower-extremity weight training were significantly associated with stress fracture incidence . Self-rated fair-poor fitness at baseline was the only variable significantly associated with other non-stress fracture overuse injury during basic training . CONCLUSIONS Among this sample of women , the risk of lower-extremity overuse injury was high , with a twofold risk of subsequent injury . The results suggest that stress fracture injury might be decreased if women entered training with high aerobic fitness and participated frequently in lower-extremity strength training . Furthermore , women reporting a history of menstrual irregularity at their initial medical exam may require closer observation during basic training
