Who enacts the Commander's Physical Readiness Training program?

• A. The Commander
• B. The Senior NCOs
• C. The Platoon Leader
• D. The Battalion Commander

Answer: (B)

The key idea is who actually runs and implements the fitness program on a daily basis. Senior NCOs are responsible for enacting the Commander's Physical Readiness Training program because they translate the commander's direction into practical, day-to-day training. They plan and supervise workouts, ensure safety, adapt workouts to the unit’s needs, and coach soldiers, making sure the program runs smoothly across all levels of the unit. The commander provides the overall direction and goals, but the day-to-day execution rests with the Senior NCOs. While platoon leaders may run sessions at the platoon level, and the battalion commander sets policy, the Senior NCOs carry out and oversee the training across the unit.
