The fire service
A Life for Safety
When people and animals are in danger, every second counts. For Manuel Knecht, this is not just an empty phrase, but everyday life. As chief fire officer with the Metzingen fire department, he is on the front line, where courage meets precision and every decision can save lives. His job challenges him - physically and mentally - and yet you can feel his passion in every movement.

Challenges in the Fire Service
Firefighting is a feat of strength. The weight of the equipment, crossing obstacles and the dizzying heat demand everything from the body. It requires not only strength, but also endurance, speed and absolute control over every movement. These are extreme situations that are full of unpredictability - moments in which fitness and movement are decisive for success and safety.
FLEXVIT tapes
A little more security with every training session
Manuel uses FLEXVIT bands to prepare for precisely these challenges. The varied exercises target precisely the muscles that have to function under pressure. Whether to stabilize the torso, promote mobility or as balancing training - the bands give him everything he needs to be physically and mentally strong when he is on duty. FLEXVIT is the key that makes him even fitter for his everyday life as a lifesaver.
