Take the Fired Up For Fitness Challenge

As a firefighter, it's important that you can meet the physical demands of being on duty. By being heart-healthy and physically fit, you're better equipped to help those who depend on you. That's why the NVFC Heart-Healthy Firefighter Program developed the Fired Up For Fitness Challenge, an interactive fitness program that allows firefighters and emergency personnel to track their hours of activity and receive incentive rewards.

The NVFC has re-launched the Fired Up For Fitness Challenge with many exciting new components. The tool still allows you to track your fitness hours, but it now challenges you to meet certain fitness goals over the course of a year. As you reach each benchmark, you will receive a reward to keep you motivated and recognize your hard work.

Encourage your whole department to take the Fired Up For Fitness Challenge. This is a great way to work as a team to achieve higher fitness levels and improved health for the entire department. Organize activities such as sports games or group runs to help all members of your department meet the challenge goals. Or make it a challenge within your department and recognize those who achieve the goals.
