The Rise of the Female Warfighter: Physiology, Performance, and Future Directions.

ABSTRACT
Since 1948, the United States military has been open to both men and women as permanent party service members. However, in the majority of the time since, there have been a subset of military occupational specialties (MOS), or job descriptions, open only to men. In particular, jobs requiring more intense physical and/or environmental strain were considered to be beyond the physiological capabilities of women. In the present analysis, we review the literature regarding neuromuscular, physical performance, and environmental physiology in women, to highlight that women have no inherent limitation in their capacity to participate in relevant roles and jobs within the military, within accepted guidelines to promote risk mitigation across sexes. First, we discuss performance and injury risk: both neuromuscular function and physical capabilities. Second, physiological responses to environmental stress. Third, we discuss risk as it relates to reproductive health and nutritional considerations. We conclude with a summary of current physiological, performance and injury risk data in men and women that support our overarching purpose, as well as suggestions for future directions.
