Patterned after the very successful LAFD Female Fire Fighter Tutorial program, FEET has developed into the quintessential physical, manipulative, and academic tutorial program for today's fire service entrance process. The program has evolved into two separate 3 unit courses. This is the physical and manipulative portion of the program. In this course, students participate twice weekly in three hour workouts. The first hour is spent in the Lifelong Fitness Lab at Rio Hondo College.
Lab combines cardio-vascular and strength exercises in an full body workout circuit.
The next two hours are spent working specifically with the tools and equipment of fire fighters. This specificity training is designed to develop student understanding of the physical requirements for Phsical agility tests required for entry to fire departments. The specificity portion of the FEET program is instructed by actual fire fighters who have used these skills to obtain their positions with Fire Departments throughout the Greater Los Angeles area. This course is designed to equip the students with the skills, knowledge and abilities to pass the Oral interview and written examination portion of fire service entrance exams. Surveys of different Background check processes, psychological evaluations, polygraph tests, and medical exams are given.
