080. The Gear That's Killing Firefighters [Part 1]
Description
If you're training to be a better firefighter but wrecking your body in the process, you're not alone — and Ryan Conley’s had enough.
In this powerful first episode, Ryan breaks down the hidden dangers of training in contaminated bunker gear and the real cost firefighters are paying in cancer, heart disease, and early exits from the job. He shares the heartbreaking loss of brothers in the field and how that sparked a movement to create safer, smarter ways to prepare for the job — without sacrificing your health.
WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
- Why your second set of gear isn’t protecting you the way you think it is
- The link between good intentions and toxic exposures
- How to train hard without slowly killing yourself
- What sparked the "Cancer Crusade" and how it’s changing the game
- The difference between “acceptable” risk and avoidable damage
If you’re a firefighter who trains hard but worries about the long-term damage, this one’s for you.
🔥 Ready to feel unstoppable in your gear? Fit For Service is the 8-week training plan built for firefighters to regain strength, confidence, and endurance on the job. 💪 Start your journey here!
