Former Wildland Firefighter Zach Roubo stops by The Anchor Point Podcast and shares his first hand experiences with firefighting, MMA, Brazilian Jui-jitsu, and fitness...

Zach has been in the Reno area for over 20 years now. He has been doing martial arts for 19 years and in 2019 received his 4th degree black belt in MMA and his purple belt in Brazilian jiu-jitsu. When not at work or in the gym, you can usually find him paddle boarding in Tahoe, hiking anything with a hill or relaxing, playing the guitar.

I have been in the fitness industry for a few years.  My original training came through CrossFit and IFA.  After meeting Matt and coaching him in boxing, I did my CPPS certification with Diesel Strength (Joe Defranco and Jim Smith).

"My personal fitness goal is to be active and outdoors as long as I can. My fitness goal for my clients is to be out of pain, feel great and help them achieve their goals."

Zach has some great tips and advice for getting yourself ready for the fire season! Be sure to check out Pendola Training at http://www.pendolatraining.com where you can find Zach coaching and doing awesome stuff!

Or you can always give him a call... (bold move, Zach)

Enjoy!
