Aurora Fire Rescue Academy 24-01 conditioning session. This session focused on lactic power intervals. #strengthandconditioning #tacticalstrengthandconditioning #firefighter #firefighters

Conditioning means different things to different people; especially among first responders. Goals, preferences, and needs can vary greatly. That's why at Performance Code, LLC, we aim to provide education along with program guidance. Conditioning can be more than just going out for a long run. It is also more than just slapping a bunch of random exercises together and doing it as fast as possible. A favorite quote of mine from Dr. Mel Siff - "Any fool can create a program that is so demanding that it would virtually kill the toughest Marine or hardest of elite athletes, but not any fool can create a tough program that produces progress without unnecessary pain." Select your exercises with purpose and choose your methods with intent. Here, Aurora Fire Rescue Academy 24-01 completed a conditioning session focused on lactic power intervals. #strengthandconditioning #tacticalstrengthandconditioning #firefighters #firefighter #fireacademy #firefightertraining

When dealing with tank fires, the leaders in charge decide on how to approach the situation based on the facility's plans and what they find out on the ground. They might choose to let the fire burn out without interfering (passive), protect people and equipment while letting the fire burn (defensive), or aggressively try to put out the fire (offensive). These decisions should already be part of the facility's emergency plans. The actions taken should match the chosen approach, but they should also be adaptable to unexpected situations. Using available resources effectively is crucial for success. While guidelines and data are important, good judgment is key in emergencies. And regardless of the chosen strategy, it's important to inform the necessary authorities and stakeholders. #riskassessment #hseprofessionals #firemanagment #psm #processsafety #firesafety #hazardousareas #fireprotection
