    Functional Fitness for Firefighters

    Being “gym strong” and being strong for the fireground are two completely different things.

We break down the “Big 8” of firefighter fitness, discuss common training mistakes in the fire service, and talk about building a body that can actually handle the job long term — not just look good doing it.
