Warm up

Main Set:  Death By...(insert excercise here)    (endurance)
L3 & L2:
Pull ups

The Protocal:  Each excercise is done in its own ladder (complete your entire push ups ladder before you do any squats). Each ladder will proceed as follows: Do two reps then every min on the minute do your reps plus two additional reps added each time. So, min one 2 reps, min two 4 reps and so on until you are unable to go on or you are unable to get your reps completed under a min.

9/19/09 Saturday

Warm up!

Main Set: (strength)
L3: @90% of 1rep max: 1, 1, 1, 1
- Front squat
- Dead Lift

L2 and L1: @80% of 1rep max: 1, 1, 1, 1
- Front squat
- Dead Lift

** Work up to your 1 rep max then drop back and do the reps, take your time and ensure that you have just enough rest between reps, 2-5 min. Not so much that you get cold but not so little that you cannot complete the rep. The idea is to come to each lift with the ability to generate as much force as you are able.

While this picture is blurry it brings firefighter values into sharp focus. This firefighter stopped into our house for a training session while her fellow firefighter sat on the bay floor drawing pictures with her son. No skin off of his neck, he was glad to do it.

This is what we do for one another, whether in the gym or on the fireground, we help each other out. We espouse charitable values, such as service and selflessness, and I often see it right here, where the rubber meets the road.

Some might say that I’m making more out of this photo then truly exists. They would suggest it’s just some firefighter pressing a load of iron over her head, getting stronger, faster and fitter in search of a flat belly and tight buns. In search of vanity.

I'll tell right now, No Way! She’s readying herself for battle, preparing for some unknown firefight, at an unknown time or location, on behalf of some unknown person, selfless dedication to duty.

Today we do what no one else will, so that tomorrow we may do what no one else can.
