This episode is sponsored by Beaver Fit. And as always, this is another company that I've not only been aware of for several years, but I also completely trust and I know is a great fit for this audience.

0:11.1

Having not only been a firefighter my career, but also a strengthening coach, I've seen the challenges that we have getting the tactical athlete fit when it comes to budgets, when it comes to space.

0:22.3

And Beaver Fit has solutions for so many of our challenges.

When it comes to space, they have the gym box, for example, which is literally the size of a

0:30.5

foot locker that when you open it up and build it becomes a squat rack, a pull-up bar,

0:35.9

a box, and even a warball target. So you can get a full

0:39.5

workout for a crew purely on that one box. Expanding out, they have storage containers that

become entire gyms. You store everything in the inside, and you can then deploy racks and pull-up

bars on the outside. They have gyms on trailers you can take from station to station.

1:17.0

environments, whether it's the deserts of the Middle East or simply on the deck of a naval ship,

1:22.6

so they are designed to not only be outside but to be beaten up by some of the most elite

1:27.4

operators on the planet.
