Workshops

 

Nutrition Strategies for Recruits to Thrive in Fire Academy

Pure Grit Performance has created a 3 hour, interactive workshop designed to educate fire departments and teach recruits best practices to perform and recovery for fire academy.

This workshop dives into the following topics to prepare recruits:

  • Nutrition 101

  • Needs Assessment

  • Nutrition Strategies and Protocols for:

    • Sleep

    • Hydration

    • Low Energy Availability

    • Stress

    • Sex Differences

    • Supplements

Recruits will walk away with knowledge, skills, and confidence on how to best prepare themselves for success to thrive during fire academy. Each recruit will receive a nutrition workbook chock full of nutrition resources and activities to walk them through academy nutrition and hydration protocols.

Departments will gain a better understanding on how to best eliminate underfueling and dehydration as a cause for muscular skeletal injury and attrition, saving them money and helping to identify the true lynchpins for academy attrition.

Courses

 

Fire Thrives

Pure Grit Performance has partnered with Dr. Ann-Maree Tidaldi, PhD, DPT in a coaching initiative providing future firefighters with skills necessary for mental and physical performance mastery.

This virtual course, unlike any other, dives deep into a model called Thrive-ology. At its core, this model focuses on aspects of fitness, nutrition, hydration, sleep, stress, and acquiring the skills necessary to thrive under pressure.

Tools obtained during this course will not only give recruits an edge during academy but will set them up for success throughout the tenure of their career.
