Tailboard Talks Firefighter Podcast

Have you ever started a show and halfway through you know that it's not for you and you have no interest in it, but you've already watched half so you can't just turn it off and might as well finish it?

Well, that is the living example of the Sunk Cost Fallacy.

It is one of the fire service's unadvertised pillars, and today we're talking about it.

Also, it's time for a new SD card.  You might notice some chunks of the audio are missing.  Trust me, I hate it far more than you do, and it will be remedied!

But we did adjust some things because of it, so that's good...right?

Basically, I didn't make the transition from work to home, a very smooth one and the tension continued.

Lack of sleep, inability to manage expectations, and the feeling of being totally cut off from working on some projects I was into—a recipe for a long couple of days in a 21-foot camper.

Check out the episode and send it to a jerk.

AKA, listen to Chris and Curt bitch about stuff for 20 mins.

To its credit, the community at LGN was above average in this arena.  But, people will be people and fingernails will be found on the turf.

The road back from a significant, or even minor injury  can be a long and twisty one.

There are a handful of hidden pitfalls that you should know about and that's what we talk about in this episode.

We hit on the physical side as well as the mentality of returning after significant injury and share some lessons we've learned while training our peers.

The IG bio for the 4th Shift Fitness page is "A realistic view of Fire and EMS fitness and wellness"

Talking about how kids can derail your fitness groove is about as real as it can be.

Three years in and I'm just figuring out how to let myself workout when the kids are awake and not feel guilty about it.

It's complicated, but what's you take?

Also, these are two workouts, to be done on two seperate days.

Ok, now that that is out of the way, lets go hit the floor and have a good time.

The bay floor is a great place to get the crew together and lets you do things that the weightroom cannot.

Check it out and let me know what you think.

The Uncomfortable Conversations episode spurred a lot of interaction and engagement.  One of the resounding comments was from officers who are uneasy starting the conversation because they feel they are not in a physical condition to tell someone else that they need to be better.

In this episode, Curt and I speak from our perspectives as a senior FF and officer respectively to give some tips and outline our expectations for those who have raised their hand to lead.

We don't all love business inspections, but they gotta get done.  I have no problem with a daily fitness routine being approached in the same manner.  Of course, there's more on this in the episode.

Curt and I went a little off the rails on this one.  This is not the episode topic we thought we were sitting down to talk about.

Our goal isn't to hurt feelings or offend.  But let's not pretend what we're doing here.

This is an uncomfortable topic, and episode.  But it is exactly what someone may need to get the train moving in the right direction.  

What do you think?

Vans are NOT the athletic shoe of your dreams.

In this episode, we run through some of our favorite footwear and how we approach the idea of specific footwear for workouts.

There are a lot of ideas in this one, but toe shoes and Vans aren't coming out as the heroes.
