F2T 215 – Advanced Core Training for Fire Fighters

Core training must involve than just side planks and sit-ups, especially when considering the dynamic and often chaotic nature of the fire ground. For fire fighters with performance and injury prevention related goals, core training should be progressed via the fundamental principles of exercise science using complex whole-body activities. This workshop will discuss the role of the core, considerations when designing core training interventions, and provide attendees an opportunity to experience a variety of core training options. Come willing to move!

Registration for this workshop is currently closed. Please check back soon for future workshop dates!

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!

Whether we succeed or fail we will learn a lot about ourselves and how to deal with adversity in the process.
