Workout Wednesday! 6/24/15


1st Due Fit's mission is to help reduce the number of Line of duty deaths caused from Cardiovascular  Issues through educating with physical fitness programming as well as nutritional coaching. Let's all come together and change these preventable deaths within the fire service. Cardiovascular heart disease (CHD), including heart attack and stroke, is the number one cause of death in America. The Fire Service is not immune to this tragic statistic. In fact, CHD is the leading cause of firefighter fatalities, with over half of all firefighter deaths each year attributed to heart attacks.

The 1st Due Fit Programs will have three different levels of skill.



Incipient = Beginner Level
Growth = Scaled Level
Fully Involved = Advanced Level. 

So if you are just getting back into the swing of things don't worry, every training program will have a level for your skill set as well as room for improvement. These workouts will require little to no equipment other then things around any fire house. The fit program is to help get you up and moving to better your overall health and endurance to provide a better "YOU" to your family, crew, department , community.
