O.K. Great!

The very FIRST STEP to becoming firefighter is getting yourself into FIRE FIT SHAPE.

It's super important.  And, it's NOT easy.

I know. I know...  I've heard it all before.

Candidates tell me how they run 5k’s, 10k's and marathons.

Or, that they train 6-days a week in their local gym --

In Great Shape, But...

And, while these men and women are in great shape, it does NOT mean they're in FIRE FIT SHAPE!

Being in FIRE FIT SHAPE is a whole different protocol that tests your physical, mental and emotional limits under a stressful environment.

CPAT is the Start

Listen, before you even qualify for the academy you're required to pass the Candidate Physical Ability Test (CPAT).

This test is designed to test your abilities through specific physical challenges that mimic common situations faced by firefighters every day.

This tests your:

  • Cardiovascular and muscular endurance
  • Overall muscular strength 
  • Mental toughness

For ANYONE to think they’re ready to pass the CPAT without PREPARATION is a huge mistake.

Preparing for, and passing CPAT, is the first step in acquiring:

  • A 20+ year career profession
  • Stability for your family
  • Health insurance
  • Retirement
  • ... and, most of all the honor to serve the community in which you and your family choose to live!

Why CPAT

Today's fire departments no longer place importance on how many sit-ups you can perform -- or, how fast you can run -- or, how many push-ups you can complete.

Modern firefighters understand when you’re running into a burning building to save a 4-year old child...  sit-ups, push-ups and unloaded sprints are totally irrelevant.

CPAT is a better gauge for a potential firefighter's success, as well as for public safety.

 

CPAT is the Qualifier

As the standard entrance requirement, the CPAT test is specifically designed to qualify potential firefighters by testing their limits in a controlled environment.  

The order of the events simulates the demands of the job in the actual sequence they are likely to occur at the scene of a fire.

These are minimum requirements. If you cannot pass the CPAT test you are not physically qualified to move forward to any fire academy.

The entire test is comprised of eight different events that must be completed - in less than ten minutes 20 seconds (10:20).
