The physical and mental demands placed on tactical professionals, firefighters, law enforcement, and special operations, mirror many of those faced by elite athletes. High-pressure decisions, strength, endurance, and recovery all play critical roles in performance and safety.

At Lumin, we build technology that supports both elite sporting programs and the world’s most demanding tactical and special forces units. The same principles that help professional teams manage training loads, monitor wellbeing, and optimise performance are being applied to help tactical personnel perform at their best, and return home safely.

Lumin’s work with Lake Travis Fire & Rescue (LTFR) is just one example of how data, visibility, and performance-driven programming are transforming the way we prepare those who serve on the front lines.

Lumin Sports plays a crucial role in the physical testing, monitoring, and S&C programming at Lake Travis Fire Rescue.

Situated north-west of Austin, Texas, and tasked with covering more than 100-square miles of lakes, vast undeveloped areas and heavily populated residential communities, Lake Travis Fire Rescue operates six fire stations with more than 100 staff.

Committed to ensuring its firefighters meet the physical standards set by the International Association of Fire Fighters (IAFF), Lake Travis Fire Rescue uses Lumin to test and visualise its personnel’s athletic data.

''Every year every firefighter is run through about 6 different batteries of assessments including flexibility, mobility, cardiorespiratory fitness, VO2 assessment, and then the nice part which was what Lumin was able to do was to take our data, put that in a new database, and so each year we pull up a dynamic report that shows exactly what they did this year and then we can show them how they're trending - either from good or bad.''

''And it offers our strength coaches opportunities to work with these individual firefighters on different kinds of improvements.'' - Matt Benson, Lieutenant Lake Travis Fire Rescue.
