“This programming has been so helpful in finding consistency. I love the flexibility of being able to switch the workout days since they are programmed every week, and find the workouts that are easier for me to do on shift. The concentration that Donny puts on grip strength, core and flexibility has personally been my favorite part of the program. I love the leaderboard and competing with other firefighters as well as track my own progress. No matter what your fitness level is, be prepared for this program to challenge you mentally and physically”
“This program is seriously one of the best programs I have ever been a part of! I have been active all my life all the way up to playing college football and this is the best shape I have ever been in! With the direction of Donny and FDX community I have learned to be able to push my body past my mind. This program has made me mentally and physically tough, it has also shown me I still have a long ways to go to get where I want to be but I am now WILLING TO DO WHAT IT TAKES TO GET THERE” I highly suggest every one give it a shot, no matter what fitness level you’re in.
Ignite Fat loss
Reducing your body fat percentage is important for health, performance and confidence. The more you lose the better you’ll feel, look and perform. Once we get you to a good percentage, that is when we will work on fine tuning your engine.
INcrease on-scene performance
Fitness is more than lifting weights. We must utilize all energy systems to increase overall performance building you into a more well rounded firefighter/athlete. This program will help you excel at your strengths and work on weaknesses at the same time.
Decrease Pain
Mobility and posture are crucial because they help you perform while supporting injury prevention. Our mobility sessions will help fix any issues you have as well as prevent future incidents, so you can be at your best and achieve peak on-scene performance.
Boost Endurance
Supplying your heart and lungs with oxygen-rich blood is essential to health and wellness. That is why cardiovascular endurance is so critical. Our programs will help build your engine while producing stronger and longer work on the fire ground.
Improve Strength
Being a firefighter requires a different kind of strength. Why? Because we lift, pull, drag, and carry heavy objects in awkward positions. That’s a fundamental part of the job. Our focus is on making you a well-rounded firefighter so you can handle any task.
Stay Consistent
We have everything laid out for you so you can stay consistent in your training. With a week of workouts in advance and the support of the community, you should not have a problem getting your workout in for the day. We train together as a family.

Donny pearson
I have had a passion in fitness and nutrition form an early age. Since then I have held multiple personal training certifications up to an elite level. I was a physical training leader within the U.S. Air Force helping members pass their PT tests. I then became a crossfit coach and even worked as a strength and conditioning coordinator for professional sports teams in Atlanta that led me to starting Firefighter Furnace in 2015.
Since then we have helped 6000+ firefighters prep for the CPAT, reach their weight goals and transform their lives through the same method used in these programs. Right now you have a unique opportunity to change your life today and become part of our FD Athlete team.
Kirsten Therrien
Kirsten has been active her entire life, participating in a variety of sports. After college, she found CrossFit and it has been her passion ever since, and has transitioned to coaching as well. As a coach, Kirsten likes to meet people where they are at, but also push them to be the best that they can be on that day.
Kirsten has been a firefighter/EMT in Massachusetts since 2012, starting on a call department, then moving on to a career department in 2017. She also works at the Massachusetts Firefighting Academy. Kirsten has developed into a fitness leader in both of her jobs. She enjoys encouraging people to be fit for the job and better than they were the day before.
Finally, Kirsten loves being a dog mom to her three babies – Ellie, Beca, and Taco.

What fitness level do i need to be in?
All fitness levels are welcome in our FD Athlete Membership. It doesn’t matter if you’re starting from scratch or have already been working out for 20 years. These workouts will challenge you helping you build an elite level of fitness required to do our job. We post scaled options for most workouts meaning you can scale down the intensity until you can do all tasks as prescribed.
It doesn’t matter where you are now, all that matters is where you believe you’re going.
what equipment do I need?
FD IGNITE – only a pair of dumbbells are needed. However, if you do not have access to any, we’ve created a list of movement adjustments in our menu. Recommended DB weights are 35lbs men and 20lbs women.
FDX – You will need access to dumbbells, a barbell, bench, weights and squat rack/pull up bar.
FD METCON – You’ll need access to basic box equipment such as a barbell, dumbbells, jump rope, bumpers, rings, assault bike and rower.
is there a department discount?
Yes, if you have more than 10 members who are interested in the FD Athlete Membership, shoot me an email via contact us with how many members you have and we will go from there.
What if i don't have time?
I want you to really think about how important it is to make fitness a normal part of our lives, especially for us. Instead of saying “I don’t have time to workout” try saying “it’s not a priority” and see how it feels. Use that to motivate you to make fitness a normal part of your life.
It’s not about having time, it’s about making time for your health
