Tacfit Gold Coast

ess approach is central to the parent of TACFIT®: the Circular Strength Training® System. TACFIT® redefines fitness to “be more prepared than the challenges you face” - to remain in flow regardless of the crises. TACFIT® considers everyone who must respond to crises to be an athlete. However, unlike in sports, in a crisis we do not know the “game” we will be “playing.” Unlike in the military, we often don’t know the rules of engagement, or when we will be called to task. . The necessity of organizational equipment and tools while performing tasks in inconvenient if not adverse conditions, and other environmental factors, intensify the demands and physical stressors placed upon crisis responders like fire rescue and emergency medical personnel. These known, as well as the unknown and unknowable, conditions of crisis response reinforce the need for a special brand of fitness based upon sustainable, functional physical preparedness which addresses performance fluidity not in merely one or two dimensions but in the reality of three-dimensions. Therefore, conventional linear training models are insufficient. The Circular Strength Training® System evolved to meet this need. These psychological stresses demand a continuum of physical skills that allow the biochemistry of crisis arousal to be safely, fully and expediently reabsorbed to avoid immuno-suppression and the host of stress related illnesses and diseases faced by career crisis responders. When you become injured in a crisis, you may spend months or even years recovering. As a result, “prehabilitation” plays a critical role in health fortification in the Circular Strength Training® System. Physical Preparedness can be defined as the willingness and capacity to perform, improvise or resolve a continuum of reality-based physical skills. For crisis response, that work involves all of the tasks associated with performance. The demands imposed upon crisis responders vary in duration, complexity and intensity. As a result, TACFIT® enables you to execute both conventional and unconventional physical tasks. Although conventional PT programs involve mono or bi-planar action on individual joints with long duration of single exercises, fitness demands multi-planar, multi-joint, multimodal exercise. The body acts as a balanced matrix: a sea of continuous tension pulling in with an architecture of compressive struts pushing out. TACFIT® increases the strength of integrity of that balance. The key to TACFIT® is teaching the body to act as an integrated whole in every action. Physical preparedness, as a result, must reflect the following goals:

##Functional, Varied and Improvised Movements: exercise must cover a wide array of reality-based skills.
##Incrementally Progressive: exercise must be intense enough to elicit an adaptive, but sustainable response.
##Increasingly Sophisticated: exercise must increase the neurological challenge of movements.
##Effort through Efficiency: exercise must maximize the amount of useful work.
##Minimizing Discomfort by Maximizing Technique: exercise challenge must derive from functional exertion not dysfunctional mechanics.
