Hello all!
I may be starting Miami Dade Fire Rescue's Fire Academy in less than two months. The academy is ten weeks long. I believe physical fitness will be a major priority for them. I am already in good shape. However, I was wondering if anyone had any knowledge about the type of exercises they perform in this particular academy. I'm thinking it'll be running, stairs, burpees, pushups, squats and functional body weight exercises. I have stopped lifting weights and just been doing high intensity body weight training such as after stretching and warming up I do workouts such as:
Sets of 20 of pushups, squats and lunges and I do as many sets as possible in 15-20 minutes. I also do sprint works. For instance, going to the track and sprinting the curve and walking the straight-ways. I was wondering if anyone knew anything else that would be good for me to do. Of course, eating healthy goes without saying. Thank you all!
