Hello, Hope everyone is well. Just a quick question here. Has anyone ever combined Strength and Edurance into one session or Strength and Strength Endurance in the same session? I really enjoy performing E sessions in the way that Chris Adams writes about in Building your engine for Firefighting. I ...

Hey nickgoldma. Have you done a Base Building Block yet? I would actually start with that before Black. By doing this you will build your aerobic base so that you HIC work later on with black will be more effective as you will be able to push considerably harder and recover quicker. Also if you use ...

Aelian. Exactly. On my shifts(red days) I dont train. I just do light active recovery work if anything. Thanks for the reply!

Hey J-Madd thanks for replying (Side note* I'm looking forward to your book. I'm 26 but appreciate your knowledge and I am sure ill learn something from the book!)

The common theme I see is good choices over time and establishing a routine. I don't drink any alcohol and never h...
