Firefighter Syndrome. Could It Be Affecting You Too? Featuring Jadie Miller
Переглядів 29Місяць тому
We in emergency services want to solve problems. This applies on way more than just 911 calls and sometimes we have to try and solve problems with ourselves or a member of our crew. At times we can notice something is "off" with ourselves or one of our crew members and maybe we chalk it up to disengagement, sleep deprivation, or just having a bad day. What happens if this bad day turns into a b...

Firefighter Breath Gears

How we breath especially under stress is paramount to how we will perform. We know that if we simply breath through our noses that we will be in a more parasympathetic state which equates to our brains being able to better process information and adapt to the quickly moving fireground. For most of us we have to intentionally think about how we are breathing and diligently train on breathing thr...

Firefighter Tactical Breathing
Переглядів 4,7 тис.5 років тому
Our breath is the foundation to how much work we can accomplish, how our bodies react to stress, and how long our SCBA cylinders can last on the fireground. Breathing through our nose when possible gives us a distinct advantage because it triggers the parasympathetic nervous system which equates to lower heart rate, lower respiration rate and longer duration of work. Here is a great simple tact...
Firefighter Wheel Breathing Technique
Переглядів 10 тис.5 років тому
Wheel breathing is a very effective and proven technique that we as firefighters can use to extend a limited amount of air in our cylinders after we hit vibralert. A great time to practice this is after a tactical athlete workout in gear and on SCBA. Once you hit vibralert, sit down and work hard to slow your respirations down while performing the wheel breathing technique. This technique will ...

Excellent video! I'll try to use it for more of the exercises I do. Tks so much
Thank you for the video I will try it out
Good work! Let me know if you have questions.
I’ve been practicing different breathing styles. This one is tough, but I let the alarm ring. It’s just training but that’s how your RIT crew will find you. Plus for some rookies it ads a bit to their anxiety
Great video guys! Really like the idea of practicing the drill right after a workout. Couple questions: Should you keep the pack strapped on so when the RIT team finds you you're ready to go and not wasting time donning it? I've seen the left strap loosened for better access to the wheel valve and the waist strap buckled under the crotch to prevent the pack from being pulled off the FF in a drag. Should you drill with the PASS activated? It seems practicing silencing the alarm might cause that to happen in a real situation. I understand that in many mayday incidents PASS activation is missed because FFs are so used to silencing it. Thanks!
Awesome questions Derek and thanks for reaching out. 1. For the wheel technique specifically, it's going to be really hard to manipulate the cylinder valve if it's still strapped to your back. This technique is mainly for firefighter survival once they can get into an area of refuge and have access to their pack or if they are lost and awaiting rescue in a stationary spot. Of course there could be a scenario where the firefighter is trapped by a collapse or is stuck in a precarious position so training like you mention is a great thing as well. 2. Yes, you should drill with the PASS activated. Great catch and you're spot on with creating unhealthy training habits when we train in a nice comfortable environment like is shown in the video. We're big fans of getting into the headspace that will be required if you're actually in a MAYDAY situation. What are you going to focus on? How are you breathing? What thoughts are you going to allow to enter your mind and which ones are you going to squash? The list is long but specifically training with intention and trying to actually put yourself in that scenario mentally will only help to perform when all of the chips are on the table. Mindset, breath, and imagery training all are going to play a massive part within the wheel breathing technique and appropriately training for it. We cover all of this and more in our Human Performance for the Fireground class and would love to see you at an offering in the near future! Thanks again for the awesome dialogue. Keep the questions coming!
@@firefightercraftsmanship8278 appreciate the response. Great to have some discussion on this! Great point about improving access to the valve by doffing. Might also help to reduce the stress on the FF and allow for the bottle to last longer. Also love your point about the mental (mindset) training. Probably one of the most important aspects of training for any emergency situation! Would love to join one of your classes and learn more from you. Here's hoping the border opens soon!
Lol! These are great
