San Francisco (CA) Police Department to Embed Human Performance Specialists

Partners with O2X Human Performance to optimize health and wellness

San Francisco, CA – Beginning in January of 2025, the San Francisco (CA) Police Department will expand their comprehensive wellness program to address career longevity and occupational performance. Along with frequent mental and physical performance-focused training, the program includes full-time Human Performance Specialists, embedded at the department, to assist in preparing officers for a career in law enforcement. 

The program is being provided by O2X Human Performance, a Massachusetts based training and education company founded by former Navy SEALs. O2X works with thousands of first responders and has designed programs for federal, state, and local agencies nationwide. They provide state-of-the-art training and education aimed specifically at helping tactical athletes finish their careers as strong as they started.

As tactical athletes, law enforcement officers risk their lives daily to keep their communities safe. They endure physical and mental stress throughout their careers that can have acute and cumulative impacts to health. San Francisco Police Department has taken an important step in mitigating these occupational hazards by partnering with O2X. Through this partnership, San Francisco Police Department  will launch the O2X Integrated Readiness Platform (IRP) to lead the implementation and drive the impact of the O2X curriculum. The IRP places elite human performance professionals, who are experts in their fields, on-site at partnered organizations. Through this initiative, San Francisco’s police officers will receive access to O2X’s virtual resources, quarterly assessments and reporting, as well as a dedicated member of O2X’s Client Services team to assist with program implementation.

Leading the day to day operations of the IRP will be O2X On-site Specialists (OSS) specializing in Injury Prevention and Strength & Conditioning. OSS utilize their education and professional experience, as well as the greater resources of the entire O2X Human Performance network, to design and implement training programs that prepare tactical athletes for the rigors of their professions. These experts incorporate elements of conditioning, injury prevention, and nutrition, along with training in fatigue management, stress mitigation, and resilience into agency personnel.

“We’re excited to assist in the development of San Francisco’s law enforcement officers,” said Adam La Reau, Co-founder at O2X Human Performance. “Our hope is that O2X, in conjunction with the Training Staff at San Francisco Police Department, can play a key role in preparing these LEOs to meet the demands of a career in law enforcement.”
