APREP Training was AWESOME!

I loved my experience with Blue Line Fitness Testing! Nikki accommodated to my needs, she was enthusiastic, she was welcoming! She helped me with the techniques and she motivated me! Overall, I had a fantastic experience. Highly Recommended! If I ever have to practice for some testing again, I will 100% go back to Blue Line Fitness Testing!

Horses, Badges & the Beat: Inside CPS Mounted Patr Horses, Badges & the Beat: Inside CPS Mounted Patrol with Robin Koltusky
This episode of Sirens, Slammers and Service takes you behind the reins of one of policing’s most unique and powerful units. Nikki is joined by Robin Koltusky, Mounted Patrol Team Lead with the Calgary Police Service and AWIPS Civilian of the Year 2025, for a deep dive into what it really takes to run a modern mounted unit. 

Robin shares her unconventional path into policing—from a lifetime in horsemanship and entrepreneurship to becoming a civilian subject matter expert within CPS—and how that expertise helped reshape the Mounted Unit’s breeding program, herd assessment, and training standards. 

We break down the four operational portfolios of Mounted Patrol—frontline patrol, community engagement, search, and public safety support—plus the intense tactical training horses and officers undergo, including desensitization to crowds, noise, footing, and chaos. If you’ve ever wondered how officers and horses are selected, trained, and deployed when it matters most, this episode delivers. 

🐎 Curious about other specialized units and behind-the-scenes roles in public safety?

No Sugarcoating It: 15 Hard Truths About Life as a No Sugarcoating It: 15 Hard Truths About Life as a First Responder
In this solo episode of Sirens, Slammers and Service, Nikki gets real—no filters, no fluff. Drawing from lived experience, she breaks down 15 hard truths every first responder needs to hear, especially early in their career. 

We talk about why keeping your work life and personal life separate actually matters, the reality of “work friends” and situational relationships, and the uncomfortable truth that this job isn’t fair—and never will be. This episode is honest, grounding, and meant to help you navigate the career with clearer eyes and stronger boundaries. 

If you’re new to the job, feeling burned out, or just need someone to say the quiet parts out loud—this one’s for you.

Struggling with the push portion of the push/pull Struggling with the push portion of the push/pull machine in the PARE, COPAT, APREP, or POPAT?
Here’s the secret: it’s way more core than upper body. 💥

These four core-strength moves in the reel will help you brace, stabilize, and generate real power where it matters. A stronger core means smoother pushes, less fatigue, and far better control on test day.

If you want personalized technique tips and focused training for your fitness test, we’re here to help you get there.

Train with us and walk into your test with confidence. 💙👟

Book your session—your future badge starts with your core.
