You talk about the physical, emotional, and mental demands of firefighting. Explain how you think the tactical athlete differ from the general athlete. Do you find resistance from departments when establishing a program or getting people involved? What is your approach to involving people? What do you think it takes to be a good coach? Management, or the “Brass,” see fitness as a way to address low morale within the ranks. They may give you the time to work out, but there is no programming or focus on performance training. Is this doing more harm than good or is it better than nothing? How do you accommodate the needs of a department of firefighters with different fitness needs? (Basic wellness exercise vs. performance training) Low back pain… WTF do I do about it? For more information on John Hofman, check out the following: http://www.911tacticalperformance.com
