Welcome back to the Iron Sights Podcast! Cece and I recently returned from Virginia Beach where we attended a Tactical Performance Seminar by Performance First for special operators, first responders, law enforcement and other tactical professionals. In this episode we discuss our takeaways from the event. We focus on human performance, specifically the performance of those who work at the tip of the spear, and the challenges and demands this line of work presents when considering nutrition, supplementation, fitness, recovery, emotional, and psychological health.
