Greetings!
It's time for real change. Firefighters across the country need to set an example, and live up to the reputation that we've earned over the years -- fit, strong, ready for anything.
Can the majority of the members in your department live up to such lofty expectations? The answer is usually NO...
But much can be done about it when you approach fitness in the right way. No expensive, elaborate equipment is necessary, and training can be challenging and fun, not easy, but nothing of value ever is.
All across the country the rank work long hours with very little physical activity. The firefighter lifestyle of 24-hour shifts, and interrupted sleeping patterns saps energy and creates food cravings making sticking to a training regimen even harder. What's the answer? My protocol features hand-held weights and kettlebells, as well as firefighter specific training. No large investment in training equipment is necessary.
The value is in how the equipment is used and the philosophy behind the training that gets the results we need in the minimum time frame. For more information on my program, workshops, or department seminars, click the link below.
