Human Performance for Tactical Athletes

Loved this book. As a firefighter for 31 years I wish I’d read it at the start of my service. (As a competitor in a full contact sport, I’d have gained a lot from it as well.)Only gripe - I can’t quite understand the considerably lower fitness recommendations for females. If the kit and casualties weigh the same, surely the bar should be set at the same height? (I don’t care what gender rescuers are so long as they’ve got the grunt when required.)That aside, fully recommended.

Selten ist mir ein so gelungenes Buch in die Hände gefallen. Hier ist wirklich alles drin, was man als Soldat, Feuerwehrmann, Polizist oder auch als Sportler über Training wissen sollte. Ernährung, Trainingslehre, Mentaltraining, Entspannung, Meditation - alles ist abgedeckt. Die wissenschaftlichen Hintergrundinformationen sind ausreichend und das Buch ist trotzdem gut lesbar. Auch an Checklisten und praktischen Tipps mangelt es nicht. Absolute Kaufempfehlung!

Brilliant!, The best onfield guide for anyone under great demanding performance

This is a Christmas gift

Not a ton of new information. Most of it has been covered before in other texts but it's good to see something that is being directed at first responders. I've been a fireman for a long time and this is certainly past due. We have a huge problem with obesity, depression, and suicide in our culture and this book is a great starting point to get our people moving in a positive direction.
