Oxygen uptake and heart rate during simulated wildfire suppression tasks performed by Australian rural firefighters

Objective: Australian rural fire crews safeguard the nation against the annual devastation of wildfire. We have previously reported that experienced firefighters identified seven physically demanding tasks for Australian rural fire crews when suppressing wildfires. These firefighters rated the opera...
