BE RESPONSE READY

"I help firefighters build strength, improve endurance, move better, and recover faster so they stay response-ready over a long, healthy, and rewarding career."

FIREFIGHTER FITNESS PROGRAMS

PHYSICAL TRAINING SPECIFICALLY FOR FIREFIGHTERS

Physical readiness is a necessity for firefighters. Unfortunately, most physical training programs are not designed to meet our needs.

At Firefighter Peak Performance, we understand the unique physical, mental, and emotional demands at each stage of your firefighting career.

Performance Training for Firefighter Tactical Fitness is specialized training designed to build capacity for work in training and emergency response, focusing on reducing injury risk and optimizing recovery. This “sport-specific” training ensures readiness when the call comes in.

Exercises are selected based on specific movement patterns with a tactical application for firefighters.

Movement Patterns are loaded with Simple Tools like kettlebells, sandbags, med balls, and steel clubs.

Workouts utilize interval training protocols that target energy systems while building strength, endurance, and power. The 20-minute workouts mimic the work on one SCBA bottle before the low-air alarm sounds.

Training Cycles provide structured progression, with flexibility to accommodate firefighting and shift work.

Programs use varied-intensity principles to improve strength and conditioning, focusing on active recovery.
