Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the leading cause of on-duty death among fire fighters (45% of on-duty fatalities) and a major cause of morbidity. And while firefighting is strenuous and inherently high-risk, many fire fighters are obese, sedentary, unfit, hypertensive, and/or diabetic, which exacerbates the problem. Current evidence highlights that preventative measures with proven benefits must be applied aggressively to combat the prevalence of CVD. Exercise must be part of the conversation. And interestingly, exercise frequency (not duration or intensity) has shown to have the biggest positive effects on CVD risk factors, and thus may be the single most important to consider when designing exercise interventions for fire fighters. Our efforts must help more fire fighters be more active, more often. #performanceredefined #firefighter #firefighterhealth #firefighterwellness #firefighterexercise #morefirefightersmoreactive #beactive #iaffwfi #iaffpeerfitness #fittothrive
