Firefighter info incoming:

Yes we have a gym in every firehouse, and they are actually really really legit. We got a bunch of government grants for awesome equipment, we even have dumb bells up to 110lbs. We have a squat rack and everything.

To the guy who said lift before I run, no. If I lift I'll get too tired and will stop running too soon. Also I don't care what I get sweaty because I clean it after use. And there's only 3 guys at each firehouse anyways.

Low pay: depends where you work. I happen to work at one of, if not the, highest paid Union departments in Michigan. It's awesome and I make enough to support my family and enjoy life.

Too tired for fires: nah. It's a different kind of exercise that I really can't explain. The only time it sucks is when we get a fire on squat day, that sucks, so I usually do squats on my off day.

I feel like I owe it to the people of the city I work for to be in the best shape I possibly can be. Their taxes pay my salary, so I owe it to them to be in good enough shape to save their lives of need be.

I'm a firefighter medic ama about my firehouse gym.

Chili isn't that popular with our department and I have no clue how to even make it. It's like a once every 4-5 month thing. No salami in the fridge. Lots of cottage cheese and Greek yogurt tho all because of me. I don't think my crew likes when I cook because it's always some form of chicken lmao

Most stations don't even have poles any more because they were leading to ankle injuries. We only have one station that is two floors high and it has a fast as gently caress twisty slide.

Super obese people call 911 to get help off of the toilet. This is not a joke. So deadlifts help me with that. Super obese people, while not just disgusting, are also horrible people that are rude as hell.

A slide? Man, being a fireman sounds like it owns. Do the guys at that station take the slide just for the hell of it or is it for emergencies only?

Most people don't take the slide. It's seriously super fast and makes you dizzy as gently caress. One day a probie decided to clean it and made it ridiculously slippery and I went flying off of the end of it in the middle of the night.

You'll get DOMS in your back muscles that can feel like a tail bone bruise. Does it feel like soreness or did you actually hurt your tailbone?

I didn't fall on my rear end or anything. Just normal gym with deadlifting added. It's just sore probably. I'll adjust my salami intake accordingly.

The other day a coworker was wearing shoes that said CROSSFIT really large on the side. I asked him how crossfit shoes are any different than normal gym shoes. He said they aren't, reebok just owns crossfit. Lmao what how can anyone own a style of exercise? I need to find a way to own running or something so everyone had to pay me royalties when they run or buy running shoes.
