Utilizing the Sparta Science movement signature, Code 8 provides objective assessments by measuring fitness level, injury risk, and rehab success with speed and scale for agencies of all sizes.

Pre-Academy & Academy

  • The standard cost to recruit, hire, equip, and fully train a single police officer from the time they submit their initial application to the time they can function independently may exceed $100,000 and take up to 18 months.

  • Over 34% of cadets sustain preventable physical injuries that result in failure from the academy, a departmental loss of $3,400,00, and almost a year and a half of lost time.

  • 95% of the sustained physical injuries originate from poor movement patterns and result in injuries to the shoulders, knees, and ankles.

  • The standard costs for recruiting and training cadets for each fire academy is approximately $1.5 million and takes over 12 months.

  • Costs due to physical failure and injury during fire academy training is approximately $250,000.

Active Duty

  • 52% of injuries that occur while on active duty are preventable muscular and joint strains that typically require an average of 4.5 days off.

  • The departmental cost of a major muscular injury can be upwards of $100,000 per officer, given the average cost for days lost, average cost of rehab, and average cost to replace an injured officer.

  • Officers who report healthy weights miss 50% fewer days after an injury, miss almost 4x fewer days, and have significantly shorter rehabilitation times than those who are overweight. 

  • The estimated cost of firefighter injury is estimated to range between $1.6 billion and $5.9 billion annually.

  • 49% of all injuries occurring at the fireground were from strain, sprain, muscular pain, or overexertion.

  • The median number of days away from work is 15 days, with 31% of injuries resulting in 31 or more days away, which results in a loss of approximately $50,000 to $200,000 per fire department per year.

How it works

Code 8 partners with Sparta Science to leverage the power of machine learning to capture an individual’s movement data in minutes, assesses performance and risk of injury, then assign intelligent, personalized movement guidance to improve performance and accelerate rehabilitation. Each program is unique to every client to make the most out of their workouts.
