AT FRONTLINE READINESS PROJECT, WE PROVIDE FREE DEXA HEALTH SCANS TO FIRST RESPONDERS, THE BRAVE MEN AND WOMEN WHO PROTECT OUR COMMUNITIES EVERY DAY. HEART DISEASE IS THE LEADING CAUSE OF DEATH AMONG FIREFIGHTERS, POLICE OFFICERS, AND EMS PERSONNEL. OUR SCANS GIVE VITAL INSIGHTS INTO BODY COMPOSITION, HEALTH, AND OVERALL WELLBEING, EMPOWERING FIRST RESPONDERS TO MAKE INFORMED DECISIONS ABOUT THEIR LONGEVITY AND VITALITY. BY HELPING THOSE WHO SAVE LIVES TAKE CARE OF THEIR OWN, WE AIM TO PREVENT HEART-RELATED ILLNESS AND KEEP OUR PROTECTORS HEALTHY AND STRONG.
First responders are trained to push through discomfort and put others first, often at the expense of their own health. Traditional fitness tests and annual physicals frequently miss early warning signs related to body composition and cardiovascular risk.
DEXA scans provide a deeper level of insight, identifying fat distribution, lean mass, and hidden risk factors such as visceral fat that standard screenings overlook. By offering this data at no cost, Frontline Readiness Project helps first responders take control of their health before small issues become life-threatening.
