INJURY PREVENTION

The job you do is dangerous, it's not a if, but when an injury will occur. The easiest way to prevent an injury is to ensure your body is ready for the demands your job's have. An injury on the job not only put's you and your team at risk, but those you are tasked to protect and save. Increased strength & Conditioning is the easiest means to decrease injury rates.

INCREASED COGNITIVE & PHYSICAL FUNCTION

Fitness level & cognitive function Go hand in hand. When your fitness is lacking you are quicker to reach higher heart rates. This results deterioration of cognitive processes such as peripheral vision (tunnel vision), depth perception, complex motor skill deterioration, loss of near vision, auditory exclusion (tunnel hearing). The easiest thing you can do to ensure your safety is to be fit.

ENDURANCE

Through this program you will build endurance that will enable you to surpass the demands of the job for extended periods of time. You know the saying, fatigues makes cowards of us all. However, fatigue is inevitable. The goal of this program is to delay fatigue as long as possible, then build the mental & physical resilience to push through until the job is done and everyone is home safe.

ON THE JOB EXPERIENCE

We've been in your shoes, we know what it's like. One very important lesson I learned on my tour in Afghanistan was that your level of fitness could mean the difference between life and death, for your team and yourself. We bridge the gap between experience and education to build optimal means to ensure fitness.
