Description of the HPP:
Human Performance Program Centers are designed to synchronize physical performance, sports medicine, sports psychology and performance nutrition.
HPP centers are specifically designed, based on applied science, to meet the unique demands of SOF. An HPP center is an investment to protect the large investment [the Department of Defense] makes to create a competent special operator.
training a single operator costs $500,000 and takes five years. “SOF cannot be mass-produced overnight, so we have to do everything possible to prevent injuries, increase the speed of recovery and ultimately extend the operational life of the force.”
HPP centers support an integrated approach to enable the sustained peak performance required of SOF. From the demands of the battlefield coupled with the demanding high-tempo training cycles, SOCOM has documented multiple factors that erode the readiness of SOF, including lack of sleep, over-training, chronic injuries and persistent stressors.
