The purpose of the study is determining the best methods to achieve a fit and healthy force and to motivate AF members to maintain physical activity. Fifty-two squadron commanders participated in a web-based survey. The most common squadron fitness activities were running (78 percent), calisthenics (74 percent), and a practice fitness assessment (68 percent). The three most common rewards given by commanders to high fitness assessment scorers included recognition at commander's call, a one- or two-day passes, and a certificate. These non-monetary awards are strategies to improve fitness behaviors.
