Mission Statment
Firefighters are professional athletes — whether the world recognizes it or not.
We must be ready to give 100% at any given moment, performing at our best when lives depend on it. To have the reassurance of performance due to preparation.
That’s why I train like one.
Firefighters and combat athletes share more in common than most realize.
Both put their lives on the line.
Both push their minds and bodies beyond comfort.
Both master control under pressure.
To be an effective firefighter, you must move with the strength of a Wrestler — able to control your own body weight with precision. You must react with the speed and sharpness of a Boxer — calm under chaos, explosive when it counts.
This training brings those worlds together. It’s the framework behind “Train Like a Fighter of FIRE.”
Through this program, you’ll learn to train like a fighter — and emerge like one:
More resilient. More capable. More determined.
Now I ask you — Will you join me in this pursuit?
Will you commit to reconstructing yourself into a stronger, sharper version of who you were yesterday?
Together, we’ll forge the strength of a wrestler, the wits of a boxer, and the heart of a firefighter.
You will become a Fighter of FIRE.
It won’t be easy — but nothing worth chasing in life ever is.
ABOUT ME
My name is Larry Sanchez — I’m a full-time firefighter serving the city of Minneapolis, MN.
Before I ever put on the uniform, I was a wrestler. The discipline, grit, and resilience I learned on those mats shaped the foundation of who I am today. Just three days after graduating high school, I boarded a plane to San Diego, California, to begin Marine Corps Bootcamp. I went on to serve six years in the Marine Reserves, where I learned the true meaning of teamwork, sacrifice, and leadership.
After my service, I achieved one of my lifelong dreams — becoming a firefighter. It’s a calling that challenges me every day and reminds me what it means to protect, to serve, and to stay ready.
But my passion for combat sports never faded. I still compete in USA Boxing, constantly testing myself and pushing my limits. Through that journey, I’ve learned that strength isn’t just physical — it’s mental, emotional, and spiritual.
There’s a philosophy I live by:
“When you’re young, you must learn all you can. One day, it’s your duty to pass that knowledge on.”
I’m still a student of life and fighting, but I believe you don’t have to be a master to teach — you just need to be one chapter ahead.
I may not have all the answers, but I know this: I care, and I can help.
And that’s all the reason I need to start.
