  • Title: Metabolic demands of simulated firefighting tasks.
    Author: Elsner KL, Kolkhorst FW.
    Journal: Ergonomics; 2008 Sep; 51(9):1418-25. PubMed ID: 18802822.
    Abstract:
    Firefighters having higher cardiovascular fitness completed a series of simulated firefighting tasks more quickly than those having lower fitness. These results support the need of a high level of cardiovascular fitness for firefighters to ensure not only their safety, but that of fellow firefighters and rescue victims.
