I'm a FFI from Cal-fire, and a current Exercise Science/Exercise Physiology Major at college of Idaho. Does anyone know of progressive departments that have implemented PT programs or have a postion within their Dept. that combines Athletic Training with other fire duties? We have PT coordinators per each unit, but no one gets payed specifically to do this job. I would really like to eventually become a training Chief and coordinate my knowledge of Exercise Science to help my fellow FF's be healthier, and work out in a way that best prepares our bodies.

I would recommend you go to the IAFF peer fittness program and see how far they have advanced fittness in the Fire Service. We have also seen great work done by the national volunteer fire council on fitness. Fire Engineering has great contacts in both these programs so feel free to e-mail me directly and I will be more than happy to introduce you to them. my e-mail is [email protected]
