    Help! I failed the agility test for an ambulance company I really want to work for. I did everything perfectly until they asked us to lift a 210 pound dummy with a 50 pound sandbag on his chest on a LBB. I could do it fine w/o the sandbag. With it I couldn't get it more than a foot off the ground. I have 5 weeks to retake it. Any suggestions on workouts/muscle groups to work on?

      legs... work your quads and hamstrings... core muscles as well... lift with your legs not your back

      I will volunteer as your dummy .. just need to find another 60 lbs or so .

      Seriously if you are trainng for one test, train doing te test .

      I would ask for a radio, and call for lifting assistance. Because the number one time-loss injury is EMS... Is back injuries.
