To move well implies having sufficient fitness to To move well implies having sufficient fitness to meet the demands of any relevant activities. In other words, fitness is the foundation to moving well within a given context. Challenge yourself to handle more loads, higher speeds, and longer times if they are relevant to the things you need and want to do! Pull-up x 3 (singles) Snatch balance x 5 Swing (overhead) x 8 10 rounds, begin every 90s #performanceredefined #movementmatters #physicalliteracy #fitnessfoundation #movementhygiene #learntomove #fittomove #exercisechallenge #7keyfeatures #iaffwfi #iaffpeerfitness #firefighterfitness #5minutesoffun #fittothrive
Our passive mobility reflects the ranges of motion Our passive mobility reflects the ranges of motion we have available and can be influenced by stretching- and mobilization-related activities. But simply having range of motion available does not mean we will access it and/or have the ability to control it during relevant activities. In contrast, our active mobility reflects the ranges of motion we are able to access (and control), and can be influenced by our body awareness, motivation, strength, endurance, etc. Efforts to improve mobility must involve activities that challenge us to both access (via coordination and awareness) and control (via endurance, strength and speed) specific joint positions. 1. Increase the ranges of motion you have AVAILABLE. Take your time! 2. Learn to ACCESS the ranges of motion you have available. Move with purpose! 3. Reinforce active CONTROL of the ranges of motion you have available. Build capacity! #mobilitymatters #mobility #activemobility #passivemobility #mobilityexercise #mobilitywod #useitorloseit #movementhygiene #physicalliteracy #performanceredefined #iaffwfi #iaffpeerfitness #fittothrive
Physical challenges can help to increase our confi Physical challenges can help to increase our confidence and make us more resilient, particularly when pushing our limits and attempting something for the first time. Whether we succeed or fail we will learn a lot about ourselves and how to deal with adversity in the process. The Challenge: 100 reps of whole-body exercise in as few sets as possible.

New evidence continues to emerge to highlight the New evidence continues to emerge to highlight the benefits of regular physical activity and exercise. From memory and cognitive function to cancer risk, cardiovascular disease and diabetes, exercise can help to protect us from many debilitating chronic health conditions. In other words, exercise can help us avoid many ‘bad’ things, particularly those that will influence longevity and health span. But exercise can also assist in the pursuit of many ‘good’ things that stand to have an immediate impact on our social and mental health - it is fun, makes us feel good and provides an opportunity to connect with others. Although we are all motivated to varying degrees by different things, when the goal is #moreactivemoreoften, focusing on positive messaging and the acute benefits to social and mental health has shown to prompt more action and changes in behaviour. Share your positive stories and join the mission to help more people be more active more often! #beactive #benefitsofexercise #exerciseisfun #fittothrive #wordsmatter #moreactivemoreoften #iaffwfi #iaffpeerfitness #firefighterwellness #firefighterfitness #performanceredefined
Novelty doesn't always mean a change in exercise. Novelty doesn't always mean a change in exercise. Challenge yourself by imposing new constraints, mixing up your rep schemes, or changing the environment. There is no single way to get better. Never stop exploring!

Physical activity can significantly reduce symptom Physical activity can significantly reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety and may be up to be 50% more effective than counseling or medication for certain types of mental health issues, at least according to a new study published in the British Journal of Sports Medicine. The authors examined 97 reviews, 1039 trials and 128,119 participants and concluded that physical activity should be a mainstay approach in the management of depression, anxiety, and psychological distress. Importantly, the research also showed that ALL types of physical activity were beneficial – walking, resistance training, yoga, etc., and it doesn't take much for exercise to make a positive change. Choose something you enjoy and be active today. #mentalhealth #physicalactivity #exerciseandmentalhealth #beactive #exerciseanddepresseion #wellness #firefighterwellness #iaffwfi #iaffpeerfitness #fittothrive
