Physiological Strain of Weight Bearing. Clinical Trial
Official title:
Auxiliary Device to Alleviate Soldiers' Backload
Combat soldiers are required to perform under strenuous physical conditions; hence, their
physical fitness is a crucial factor in their survivability.
The Auxiliary Device- "Minkal", is suggested (by its manufactures) to be able to reduce the
soldiers' physiological strain by lowering the absolute load being carried by the soldier.
As a result, it may improve the soldier's physiological abilities and performance through
enduring missions with heavy loads, and may lead to better protection on the soldier from
overuse injuries.
