This episode is sponsored by Team Builder, yet another company that's doing great things for the first responder community.

As a strength and conditioning coach myself who also trains tactical athletes, dissemination of wellness information is one of the biggest challenges.

Now, TeamBuilder is the premier strength strength conditioning software for tactical athletes.

And there are several features that really impress me.

Firstly, there is a full exercise library so you, the personal trainer, does not have to create that within your own department.

Secondly, you can send out programming, but also individualize, which I love.

So you blanket program for everyone.

Now you can tweak based on someone's injury, someone's need to maybe drop some body composition,

rather than having to write a program for every single person on their own.

TeamBuilder also allows you to build custom questionnaires to collate health and wellness data. It integrates with wearables. And I think one of the most important things is obviously it tracks. To me,

it's imperative that we as a profession start tracking our people from day one and then over the full

span of their career, therefore catching potential wellness issues and injuries before they happen.

Now, if you want to try TeamBuilder, they are offering you, the audience of the Behind the Shield podcast, a free 14-day trial to experience all of the features.

And if you want to take a deeper dive into

TeamBuilder, listen to episode 132 with Melissa Macardo or go to team builder.com. And I'll spell

that to you because it's not as you think. T-E-A-M-B-U-I-L-D-R.com.
