Vanessa Frost is a strength coach and wellness coordinator for the Pflugerville FD in Texas. She has been with her department for 7 years and is also a mother to two young boys and wife to a firefighter.
Vanessa and I cover some ground talking about the fitness evaluations she does with her department as well as trends in the fire service she's noticed from the fitness lens. Not least of all we address the term of "Tactical Athlete" and if it is justified being used with firefighters.
If you want to hear more from Vanessa, she can be found on Instagram under the @firefighterstrengthcoach
