In this Firefighter Training Episode…
In this firefighter training episode, we train on how to gear up fast and effeciency every time.
Just like professional athletes have a specific “routine” for getting mentally focused and prepared for their shot/performance, great firefighters have their routine to get them combat ready, quickly and effectively. ( This isn’t what you learned in the academy. This is the real world stuff.)
We reviewed the 3 different scenarios that we would find ourselves in when the alarm goes off and we need to gear up.
- Gearing Up off the rack
- Gearing Up off your seating assignment
- Gearing Up walking into the fire house.
These are the top 3 scenarios, so we focused on these and share the inside tips on how to gear up fast, with all our gear including our hood and radio strap.
We also share a bonus tip at the end.
John Hayowyk and John Dixon join David J Soler to provide more tips and even bonus content.
