Starting this fall, the DOF will be implementing a fitness evaluation to go along with our annual WPE and physical health exam. This fitness evaluation is the final piece to the IAFF/IAFC endorsed Wellness Fitness Initiative. The test will consist of a body composition measurement, aerobic capacity measurement using the Submaximal WFI Treadmill protocol; strength test using a hand, arm, and leg dynamometer; static plank and pushups, and sit and reach.
The data gathered from these tests will be used to review your overall health and fitness and provide you with feedback for the same.
