Shifting health & wellness from "just talk" to the "firefighter walk." Empowering first responders to live stronger, longer, and with purpose.
"Health & Wellness must shift from being 'just talk' to the 'firefighter walk.'"
Shift Strong was founded by Ladedrick A. Phillips — an active firefighter at Dallas Fire & Rescue Station 22, certified personal trainer, EMT, Paramedic, and soon-to-be Nutritional Therapy Practitioner.
His passion is transforming how first responders approach their own health — building a culture where the strongest, most agile firefighters are also the healthiest members of their community.
