Re: Getting Buff-y
Got a nice workout in class chopping up a log with an axe until my cylinder ran low. Also did some stair climbing and worked with chainsaws.

Re: Getting Buff-y
Yesterday was more chain saws, more stair climbing and push ups.
Lower body workout with the PT today but I forgot my notebook with him.

Re: Getting Buff-y
This morning I participated in the Manassas Stair Climb. I climbed with 10 of my classmates, all of us in bunker pants and coat, and a few of us with packs, carrying a few names out of the 343 fallen firefighters. On our 7th or 8th trip up I carried a high-rise pack. Tough but rewarding day.

Re: Getting Buff-y
I need to fix the picture links on my first post sometime..
Yesterday was finals for my firefighter I/II class, and I passed each skill! I also completed the final written exam with a 94%, so while I have yet to graduate I'm a firefighter! The classes we have left to take before graduation day (hazmat ops and rit/mayday) are separate certificates.

Re: Getting Buff-y
Your workouts are remarkably well thought out for somebody who says they never had a background in exercise.
Where did you get the information you used to put them together?
