    103. Improve Your Run Time Without Running

    If you're a first responder or in the military, you have to take some type of physical assessment to make sure You are fit for duty. The vast majority of these assessments require running, sprinting, jogging, or some type of agility. I talk to hundreds of first responders on a monthly basis, and I’ve come to the strong conclusion that the cardio portion of any fitness test is the Achilles heel of the Everyday Hero community., I've learned that most of this community hates running with a passion, and most avoid running at all costs until weeks before their test because they think improving their cardio by running is the only way. And this episode, I walk you through several other ways to improve your cardio so you can crush your physical fitness test without having to run regularly. If you hate running with a passion or feel like your joints can't handle it, I promise you there are other ways to become a performance animal without having to run or jog each week. What You'll Learn in this Episode: 0:00 - Intro 5:23 - Cardio is the #1 struggle for most people 11:52 - You better learn to run 15:31 - HIIT & LISS training 19:42 - Walking is not cardio 22:32 - Final action steps for improving cardio 🇺🇸If you're a Military Member/Veteran, 1st Responder, or Medical Professional and want to get fit for duty and life, then visit us below to find out how you can become one of our 500+ transformations🇺🇸 Follow Pursuit Health & Performance: | https://www.instagram.com/pursuit_hp/ | https://www.facebook.com/stefan.kunz.547/ | https://open.spotify.com/show/6sljQuIqdFixs3j5xAybCs?si=1fba11b6d0ec4545 | https://pursuit-hp.com/ |

    101. Performance Hacks For Tactical Fitness

    Cops, Firefighters, BPs, and COs should train a little differently than the average person at the gym. Even if performance is not your “top” priority, it's definitely something you need to focus on. A lot of people go to the gym purely for aesthetics, which is great, but they don't have a job where they're putting themselves in imminent danger each week. This means you have an obligation to yourself, your career, and your community to be more of a performer than the guy who goes to the gym and does curls in the squat rack, lol. You should be prioritizing a 360 approach to your fitness if you want to be a well-rounded athlete AND look amazing all year long! In this episode, Coach Mike (Pursuit tactical performance coach) and I share what tactical athletes should be prioritizing when it comes to their programming and performance. What You'll Learn in this Episode: 0:00 - Intro 4:54 - What is conjugate training? 8:25 - Training for strength and speed 13:22 - Everything comes from your brain 19:11 - Thoughts on CrossFit 23:28 - Your program needs to be tailored to your life 29:22 - Being capable v. being technical —--------------------- 🇺🇸If you're a Military Member/Veteran, 1st Responder, or Medical Professional and want to get fit for duty and life, then visit us below to find out how you can become one of our 500+ transformations🇺🇸 Follow Pursuit Health & Performance: https://www.instagram.com/pursuit_hp/ | https://www.facebook.com/stefan.kunz.547/ | https://pursuit-hp.com/ |

    97. How Tactical Athletes Should Train To Improve Cardio, Burn Fat, & Increase Performance

    Firefighters, Border patrol, law enforcement, and corrections officers are all “tactical athletes” from my standpoint. These careers should be prepared for almost anything to pop off unexpectedly. They might have to fight, sprint, climb, throw, and who knows what else, but if you look at the training programs most are following, there’s a massive disconnect between how they’re training and what their body will be prepared for. On top of training for performance, nutrition seems to be another Achilles heel for the tactical athlete community. This has led to a lot of these career fields being 20-70+ lbs overweight, which has a direct negative impact on the performance, health, and confidence of the individual. In this episode, I dive deep into a few styles of training I’ve seen to be the most optimal training for the lifestyle, schedule, goals, and physical capability of the tactical athlete. After working with 650+ Everyday Heroes, my team has an excellent pulse on what this should look like! What You'll Learn in this Episode: --------------------- 0:00 - Intro 2:31 - How to increase your performance 7:06 - You need to train like you play 7:57 - The #1 cardio you should be doing 12:00 - How to train for specific scenarios 18:19 - You should be doing BOTH of these 30:36 - We often eat out of boredom 34:15 - Finding the balance of how to train 37:27 - Crossfit gets a lot of things right 41:41 - How much time are you willing to sacrifice? --------------------- 🇺🇸If you're a Military Member/Veteran, 1st Responder, or Medical Professional and want to get fit for duty and life, then visit us below to find out how you can become one of our 500+ transformations🇺🇸 Follow Pursuit Health & Performance: | ⁠Instagram⁠ | ⁠Facebook⁠ | ⁠Youtube⁠ | ⁠Website⁠ |
