Our
Mission For 2006
Firejock, firefighter
fitness online magazine promotes creating a fitness lifestyle necessary
for achieving health and wellness and being the best firefighter
possible.
Juliet Draper of the Colorado Springs
Fire Department is using the firefighter combat challenge as her
method for staying in tip-top condition, because it provides job
specific training.
The training encompasses all the dimensions
of physical fitness needed to effectively do the job: strength, endurance,
cardiovascular fitness and flexibility.
|
However,
the fire fit lifestyle can also be achieved through other amateur
sports, strength, cardiovascular and flexibility activities, along
with awareness of proper nutrition.
Our mission is to inspire with information
and profiles that help you get in the best physical condition possible.
Your new found conditioning helps you provide better customer service
and also live a long and healthy life.
Juliet
Draper, 42 brings
her knowledge of fitness as not just exercise, but as a lifestyle.
She also brings the experiences gained doing fire specific
competitions and a deep understanding of the exercises and
attitudes firefighters need, to have a long and active career
in the fire department, followed by a long and active retirement.
Draper, a firefighter for 11 years, has been with
the CSFD for 6 years. While a firefighter in the US Army she won
a series of competitions: twice the 1992 Iron Horse competition for
the strongest woman on Fort Carson and the 1994 Armed Forces Bodybuilding
Championship. After becoming a member of the CSFD, she won the World
Fire Fighter Combat Challenge in 1999.

Although
Draper is a high performance athlete she's developing training
programs for every level of fitness.
Pam
Jones, 56 brings
a B.A. in philosophy from Stephens College and 25 years experience
as an entrepreneur to Firejock. Jones started her first business
when she was just 22 years old, designing clothing. Among her ventures
are ownership of The
Body Scenter, personal
manager sister, Grace Jones, producer of a Juliet~Rogue Amazon
a music CD, along with theatre productions.
Firejock.com is the third venture
of Pam Jones and Juliet Draper, life and business partners for
11 years. A few years ago their company Rogue
Amazon Ent. produced
a music CD. It was a dream of Draper's to be a firefighting
diva, but the lifestyle of late nights, alcohol and
smoke filled bars, made them groggy and got in the
way of their 5:30am workout.
They finally figured out that their ventures
have to be about their passions; fitness, firefighting and working
together.
