Have you witnessed close calls because someone was too out of breath?
Have you drained your oxygen tank too quickly?
Improving how your body uses oxygen will support your crew far more than 6-pack abs.
Breathing is foundational to everything a firefighter does
Blood circulation - proper breathing dilates blood vessels for better circulation
Oxygen delivery - more oxygen will make it from your lungs to your tissues where it’s needed
Lower respiratory rate - fewer breathes and lower volume of air meaning you won’t drain your oxygen tank
Benefits of Breathwork
- Deeper sleep - losing sleep is part of the job, but you can improve what you get
- Better at handling stress - improving how you use oxygen is like a massage for your body even if your circumstances don’t change
- Improved recovery - improved breathing helps you spend more of your day in the rest and digest mode necessary for your body to repair and favorably adapt
- Improved focus - it’s hard to think straight when you’re out of breath
Breathing happens 24/7 so a 1% improvement is massive for your well-being and performance
