Metabolic demands of simulated firefighting tasks.

Kimberly L Elsner1, Fred W Kolkhorst.   

Abstract

Firefighters having higher cardiovascular fitness completed a series of simulated firefighting tasks more quickly than those having lower fitness. These results support the need of a high level of cardiovascular fitness for firefighters to ensure not only their safety, but that of fellow firefighters and rescue victims.
