If you want to dominate the push/pull machine on your PARE, COPAT, or APREP… it starts with what you’re doing at home 👇

Lateral squats with a plate are 🔑 for building the leg drive, hip stability, and control you need to generate serious power through that push phase. It’s not just about strength—it’s about moving efficiently under load.

The more you dial this in now, the smoother (and faster) your test day will feel 💥

And when you’re ready to take it to the next level—we’ve got you.

At Blue Line, you can train on the actual equipment used in testing, refine your technique, and build the confidence you need to walk in and crush it. Whether it’s practice runs or your official test, we’ve got everything set up for your success.

👉 Book your session now and get one step closer to passing your test with confidence.

Strong on the PARE doesn’t just mean strong in the gym—it means smart with your movement 👊

The pole push/pull is where a lot of people burn out fast… but it doesn’t have to be that way.

In this reel, we’re breaking down how to use your body mechanics + positioning advantage to make every rep more efficient—so you’re not just muscling through, you’re moving with purpose. Think leverage, not just effort.

When you dial this in, you’ll save energy, stay smoother, and set yourself up to crush the rest of the test.

🔥 Want to practice it properly?

Join us at Open Gym:
📅 Thursdays 6–8 PM
📅 Saturdays 11 AM–1 PM

Or book a 1:1 session and spend the time you need on that machine until the technique is locked in and automatic.

Your goal isn’t just to pass the PARE… it’s to walk in confident and own it.

🎙️ Breaking Barriers in the Fire Service | Katie G

🎙️ Breaking Barriers in the Fire Service | Katie Gordon

This episode of Sirens, Slammers and Service features a true trailblazer—Katie Gordon, the first-ever female firefighter with Prince George Fire Rescue. 🚒🔥

Katie shares the incredible journey that led her there—starting in law enforcement in 2000, spending seven years in corrections, and ultimately finding her calling in the fire service where she’s now built an 11-year career. We talk about what it meant to step into a role where female mentorship barely existed at the time, and how that experience fueled her passion to give back through initiatives like Camp Ignite, helping inspire and mentor the next generation of women firefighters.

The conversation also dives into the unique structure of Prince George Fire, where every firefighter is fully Emergency Medical Responder qualified, the reality of 24-hour shift rotations, and the teamwork required to serve their community.

Outside the firehall, Katie is helping build community in another way—co-founding the 1697s Rugby Club, a first responder rugby group, and supporting the growth of the Aurora Wolves youth rugby program, which is expanding across Northern BC thanks to regional development and new funding.

Katie’s message is simple: if you’re a woman thinking about becoming a firefighter—reach out, ask questions, and go for it.

Inspiring stories like this are exactly why we love this podcast… and trust us, there are many more amazing episodes coming your way. 🎧🔥

If you’re thinking about a career as a PEACE OFFICER, CORRECTIONAL OFFICE or SHERIFF but have no idea what the PARE & COPAT looks like, this session is built for you. This introductory, hands-on walkthrough is designed for absolute beginners who want to understand the layout of the tests, see the equipment up close, and get comfortable with a few of the key obstacles—without the pressure of a full run or any timing. You’ll learn what each station demands physically, how the transitions feel, and what areas you may want to start training before booking an official practice test.

This is NOT a practice test. You will not run the full course, and you will not be timed. This session is strictly an introduction to help you build familiarity and confidence before your training begins.

This is a great first step for anyone feeling unsure, overwhelmed, or simply curious about what the PARE & COPAT actually involves.

Spots are limited to 15 people so we can keep the session personal and supportive. Secure your spot today and take your first step toward your law enforcement goals.

Tonight was one of those moments that made us stop

Tonight was one of those moments that made us stop and smile.

For the first time in a long time, we had more women running the PARE & COPAT testing tonight than men… and honestly, it fired us up. 🔥

Every year we see more women stepping forward, pushing limits, and proving that they belong in the first responder space. Strength, grit, resilience, leadership — it’s all there. And watching women show up and attack the course is something we will never stop celebrating.

If you’re a woman who’s been thinking about a career in policing, corrections, or another first responder field, this is your sign. You don’t have to figure it out alone, and you don’t have to walk into it unprepared.

At Blue Line Fitness Testing, we train women every week who are preparing to pass the PARE, COPAT, SOPAT, POPAT and APREP. Whether you’re just starting to think about the career or you’ve got a test date coming up, we’ll meet you where you’re at and help you build the strength, confidence, and strategy to succeed.

✨ And we’ve got something special coming up…

Our Female First Responder Day – April 11 is a FREE event designed specifically for women who want to learn more about the career and try elements of the testing in a supportive environment.

You’ll get to:
• Learn about the testing process
• Try parts of the fitness tests
• Ask questions
• Meet other women on the same path
• Build confidence before your first test
