šØAttention Fire Academy Recruits and Firefighters! If you arenāt incorporating these exercises and movement patterns into your training you are already behind!
ā
Save This So You Remember!
š„Overhead Carry: firefighters constantly work with our arms overhead - pulling ceiling, advancing hose lines, raising ladders, and overhaul work. Overhead carries train your shoulders to stay strong while fatigued, not to just produce one rep of strength.
š„Renegade Rows: Trains anti-rotation core strength and upper body strength. For example tool handling forceable entry, hose control and awkward load stability.
š„Sled Push/Pull: Increases your leg drive and conditioning under load. Increases your quad endurance, Glute power, work capacity, and mental tolerance to sustained effort.
š„DB Step-Ups: Increase your stair climbing, endurance, single leg strength, SCBA and a gear load tolerance.
š„Front Loaded Carries: They teach you how to move weight while breathing, bracing, and staying upright. This will help with victim, removals, carrying hose bundles, carrying saws and tools.
š„Farmers Carry: They help increase your grip strength and full body bracing under load.
š„KB Swings: Builds hip power, strength and conditioning at the same time. It will also increase your posterior chain strength!
šØ if you are a first responder or healthcare worker, looking to lose weight and gain muscle DM me the word āFITā to get started!

Training hard today, ready for tomorrow š„
During a multi-company operations training, #LAFD firefighters practice deploying master streams to prepare for large-scale incidents.

If I had to prepare for the fire academy in 8 weeks⦠this is exactly what Iād do.
Most recruits make the same mistake.
They train like bodybuilders instead of training for work capacity, endurance, and real firefighter conditioning.
The academy doesnāt test how much you bench.
It tests:
⢠running
⢠stair climbs
⢠strength endurance
⢠mental toughness
This is the exact training structure I used to graduate #1 out of 100 recruits.
I turned it into an 8-week firefighter prep program so recruits can show up ready instead of just hoping they survive.
Comment āACADEMYā and Iāll send it to you.

You donāt find out what youāre capable of
by staying where itās comfortable.
Comfort will keep you stuck.
Risk is what shows you who you are.
No one starts out strong.
No one starts out confident.
But if youāre willing to show up,
put in the work,
and keep going when itās hard
then you might surprise yourself with what youāre capable of.

Are you pulling your weight?
As firefighters we have a responsibility to ourselves, our colleagues and the community we serve to maintain our physical and mental fitness.
Are you a dependable member of the team?
That last repā¦.

High-Rise Fires Demand Precision. Know Your Hose Loads. š¦
When it comes to high-rise firefighting, success starts long before water hits the seat of the fireāit starts with how you deploy your hose.
Understanding different high-rise hose loads, including the Cleveland Load, is critical for efficiency, speed, and control in a stairwell or on the fire floor.
The Cleveland Load gives crews flexibility:
⢠It can be shouldered and advanced while dry, allowing for quick deployment up stairwells
⢠It can be charged while being held, giving firefighters control as it flakes out
⢠Or it can be laid down cleanly on the stairwell landing or apartment hallway, ready to be advanced toward the fire
This isnāt just about techniqueāitās about reducing kinks, improving flow, and making the push smoother under pressure.
In high-rise environments where space is tight, heat is intense, and time mattersā¦
š The way you load, carry, and deploy your hose line can make or break the operation.
Train with purpose.
Understand your loads.
Execute with confidence.

MASK UP DRILL.
We must always be prepared to be as fast and efficient as possible.
All we can truly control is time and training.
In this profession out of the gate weāre behind.
Our ability to make up time with efficient movements will help us achieve the mission and better help us mitigate any situation.
Post rit training Mask Up Drill.

Letās give āem a show š„ā¼ļøšŖ
The Florida RIT Operations Group had an exciting opportunity to attend the 3rd Annual Florida Fire Service Day at the Capitol on Wednesday, February 18.
Our RIT showcase included teams from Palm Beach Gardens @rit_dawgs and Walton County @wcfrfl working through the course in front of a crowd of several hundred people throughout the day, including state lawmakers and fire service leaders.
This was an unbelievable platform of visibility for our competition- and the importance of what we train for- all taking place on center stage within the State Capitol grounds. Great work to the teams and judges involved! š¤
