Which FM covers Holistic Health and Fitness?

• A. FM 7-22.5
• B. FM 3-22
• C. FM 7-8
• D. FM 7-22

Answer: (D)

Holistic Health and Fitness is the Army approach that combines physical readiness with nutrition, sleep, mental readiness, and recovery to improve overall Soldier readiness. The Field Manual that specifically codifies this program is FM 7-22, which is titled Holistic Health and Fitness and serves as the primary reference for implementing HHF across the force.

The other manuals cover different topics: for example, the manual ending with 7-22.5 focuses on the Army Body Composition Program, which is about weight and body-fat standards rather than the comprehensive HHF approach; another manual addresses rifle marksmanship, and yet another covers topics not related to HHF. Since only one manual explicitly covers Holistic Health and Fitness, that’s the best choice.
