About Me:

A Battalion Chief for Cal Fire, Adam Lambert has made it the focus of his career to identify and address the specific physical, cognitive, and emotional demands placed on fire personnel and shift workers. Lambert's breadth of experience in the fire service has provided him with a unique vantage point from which he has built a progressive approach to address those needs. Adam is the author of the forthcoming book Fit For Duty, a Comprehensive Guide to Health and Fitness in the Fire Service. His groundbreaking review on nutrition and heat related illness was recently published in the State of California annual Focus on Safety. Heralded as a thought leader in the field, Adam was recruited as a contributing editor by The First Twenty, a web based wellness program designed for the fire service. In addition, Lambert is recognized as one of the leading strength and conditioning coaches in the fire service. Certified under the National Strength and Conditioning Association, Lambert spent 6 years training and coaching under the tutelage of Robb Wolf, author of The Paleo Solution and owner of Norcal Strength and Conditioning. As a Fire Fighter Olympics and Crossfit Games competitor, Adam is no stranger to performance athletics. Adam believes that achieving optimal health and performance must include a foundation of fundamental nutrition and fitness principles but is by no means a one size fits all approach. To that end, he is committed to helping firefighters find a nutrition and fitness strategy that meets the needs of the individual as well and their current role in the fire service.
