🔥 Welcome to Own Your Shift
I’m Jimmy Gonzales—a firefighter with 20+ years in the fire service, strength & conditioning coach, and founder of Own Your Shift.
After years of watching firefighters struggle with random programming, injuries, and burnout, I built the system I wished existed: structured training designed around the realities of shift work, recovery, and career longevity.
Inside you’ll find shift-friendly strength & conditioning, recovery and nutrition strategies, fire recruit, Biddle, CPAT and interview prep, live events, educational content, and accountability from firefighters across the country.
I’m excited to have Will Velasquez joining the team to help with fitness programming and interview preparation.
📖 My Fire Recruit Book launches soon.
