[QUOTE="7Rum Slayer, post: 2789562, member: 113894"] This is true, I do it almost every season with fire instructors and new firefighters and this is a great start. The old forest service test was a five minute step test using a 18 inch step and you step up and down to the click sound of a metronome. Its pretty fast pace and works up a great lather. Then they checked heart rate before the test and just after to monitor heart rate drop. I like to pack the 45lb pack and do the old step test to prepare for rugged hikes and heavy pack loads. Best of luck and start slow. cheers, Jason [/QUOTE]
