"Fitness" means more that just working out. Nutrition, hydration, rest & recovery, and an understanding of the risk factors we face are all important elements of performance, ⬇️ injury and illness risk, & longevity.

There is a fundamental difference between fitness and performance. Tactical Athletes need both. #211PT

A look back on my roots as a student AT for @humbercollege https://t.co/4x7zF3h20l

A great little experiment to analyze how much load is being applied to the body when operating in full equipment!
Tactical Athletes have similar physical demands but different external influences than traditional athletes, yet are still required to perform maximally #211PT

Here are the weigh-in results for #ToolTuesday! To the left Firefighter Day and to the right Firefighter Hunter are wearing what is the standard gear for responding to a high-rise fire #OakvilleFire #Oakville #OFDPride

[NFPA @NFPA]

Many of the nearly 94,000 women firefighters in the United States are forced to use gear that doesn't fit them properly, which puts them at higher risk for injury. A new project addresses the problem. https://t.co/T5v8ZQ8Oo8 #InternationalWomensDay

Increase fitness
Manage stress (down regulation)
Lower risk for CVD
INCREASE PERFORMANCE

@FirehouseTrain1 Thanks! 💪👊🔥

The average person takes 20-24,000 breaths per day (excluding exercise) making the diaphragm one of the most commonly exercised muscles in the body. YET I can almost guarantee you anyone with stress and/or an injury to the body is not breathing properly.

[211 Performance Therapy - CAT(c) CSCS @211Pt]

Breathing is one of the most commonly dysfunctional things in people. (Literal breathing mechanics)

We should all strive to BREATHE better (be more mindful), EAT better (eat real food), MOVE better (be more active), SLEEP better (create a sleep routine), and CONNECT better in the pursuit of wellness. #IAFFWFI
