Merely stating my pride is insufficient...
This remarkable young individual established a goal and pursued it with unwavering determination.
He was my initial client in 2017. Despite his vision being years from realization, he remained dedicated to the work. He exemplifies the positive outcomes of exceptional parenting and possesses a strong moral foundation.
I am pleased to announce that we have transitioned from being friends to now being colleagues. Remember to prioritize safety and commit to lifelong learning.

I will be participating in a ride from Dublin (September 8th) 😎 to Kinsale (September 11) in effort to raise money for while also raising awareness about mental health, supporting the wellness of first responder’s children, and 9/11-related cancer and illnesses. In partnership with the FDNY Cycling Team, and Ireland's National Firefighters, we will depart from Dublin to bike along the southern coast of Ireland to Kinsale, where a memorial ceremony will be held to honor those lost on 9/11 and those who have since passed as a result of 9/11-related illnesses. Please donate what you can!

Stress is a motherfu*ker for everyone especially tactical athletes.
HAVING HIGHER LEVELS OF STRESS HORMONES IN YOUR BODY WILL INHERENTLY DAMAGE YOUR NORMAL BODY FUNCTION.
At rest you can have the same responses as a caveman being chased by a tiger..
Stress effects your body, mood & behavior
Managing stress is key to proper recovery.
Here are some examples :
[ ] Meditation (piranha breathing, box breathing) (using )
[ ] Improving your SLEEP hygiene
[ ] Stretching (yoga, formally known as ROMWOD))
[ ] Cold Plunge
[ ] Message/ foam rolling
All these should and can be done everyday. These habits make you a better human, partner, parent, sibling, leader… the list goes on and on.

I've had the privilege of coaching and mentoring more than 3800 probationary firefighters since 2015. Upon successfully completing The Fire Academy, these young people experience an unending sense of pride. Now it's up to their assigned Fire Houses' senior members to shape them into the professional tactical athletes they're intended to be.
