Bench Press day right? 3 sets of 5 to start off, again ideally early as with hydrant testing in full swing we needs to be efficient!
On air:
Rotate through as a group so that while one works the others are waiting conserving air. When it is your turn to go go right through the stations right after each other and get it done smoothly and quickly. There will be no injuries due to rushing on the ladder raise. Period.
Stations:
1. Ladder Raise & Lower x 1: Single FF raise a 2 fly ladder up against a wall, then lower to ground. Be in control grabbing rungs to raise and lower not sliding on rails.
2. Kneeling Sledge on Tire x 5: From semi-kneeling position hit big tire to simulate forcing a door- aim for a lug on tire and make sure to hit the right one each time.... what if it was you holding the halligan??
3. Prowler Push & Pull x 50': Start with 90lbs and add wt if you can. Strength and speed are the focus here, only push a wt you can push. If you end up needing to stop 1/2 way then you have too much wt. Don't decrease the wt, stop your workout.... seriously.
Keep going until all have hit 1/2 on their air bottles then move to the survivability drill:
Good clip from Fire Engineering, give each method a whirl on each other. Since the victim will not have a face peice on you can use the victim's SCBA as the "RIT" SCBA. Have fun!
These workouts are put here as an option for AFD members to help improve their fitness related to FF activities. Each workout will contain a strength component (squats, deadlifts, presses, pulls etc) and finish with a conditioning component (lower skill movements done in intervals, rounds etc). The intention is to focus on building overall strength at the beginning of the workout when you are fresh and then use our strength for conditioning (as we are strength and power based athletes).
You must take part in a contest for one of the preferred blogs on the web. I will recommend this web site.
