Anna is a KB swinger

I love this place! Seriously, I’ve never had a better or harder workout.  I’m looking at how I view my body and weight in a totally new way.  I push myself and do things I never thought possible.  Thanks for all you guys have done for me!

Lyndsey was confused on the WOD

I just wanted to thank you both for everything you have done for me.  In my entire life I have never felt as good as I have over the last month and a half.  Never would I have thought that I could do half the stuff I have been doing.  When I first came in, I felt rather hopeless and that my weight was a lost cause.  I definitely do not feel that way anymore.  For the first time in my life I feel like I am in control.  I feel this way w/ a month and a half under my belt . . . looking forward to where I will be in a year!!  Thanks again for everything.

Great workouts in a short amount of time.  It seems as if I never have enough time, but I know I can go in, get my butt kicked, and get out.  Love the challenge of learning new things that push my limits and really enjoy the people.  The website / blog is great! I haven’t really utilized it until just recently, now I’m somewhat addicted.

I love how every workout seems impossible, but after we are done we are so proud of ourselves for finishing.  I also like that all the workouts are scaled, yet intense.  I also love how Clint always lets us know when we do a good job (or not so good.)  I feel like I’ve done more in the last 3 month’s at Alternative Athletics than ever before.

Amanda came to us with her dominant hand broken and a desire to become a Search and  Rescue Air crewman.  As her hand, healed we were able to build up her over all strength, which was displayed on her screen test by both a dramatic increase in her pull ups and push ups while lowering her run and swim times.  Unfortunately, Amanda had such a good time with us that she is now contemplating becoming a trainer herself rather than pursuing her Navy Career.  We are behind her  and offer  her our support with whatever path she chooses.

“The most motivation that I have had since I joined the Navy.  F—- that, (most motivation) in a long ass time.  (Clint) is brutally honest (in a way) which is awesome and encouraging.”

 Ike is currently preparing for the hardest training program that the Navy has to offer, Basic Underwater Demolition / SEAL training.  We started his training  in Rota Spain where they have some of the best blood oranges that I have ever tasted.

“Well do you like oranges? I know that Clint does.  When I first met him that’s all I would ever see him eat.  Anyway training with Clint is completely different.  Unlike most of the drill instructors (in the Navy) yelling and shouting at their trainees.  Clint is quiet and observant, yet he does not just sit there and coax you through the workout.  The workouts were unusual, at first I thought that they would be easy and pointless, but (the further I was in the workout) the more I realized that it would get harder and harder.  Eventually I found myself out of breath and ready to take a dirt nap.  Soon I realized that there were cardio workouts other than just running and swimming.  The experience has definitely changed me over the last few months both mentally and physically.  I actually dread and enjoy going to the work out at the same time.”

  Jesse was an avid martial artist who ended up with orthoscopic knee surgery and permanent metal plates to re-enforce his joint structure.  With an “air” squat therapy program, using only his body weight and a emphasis on full range of motion, we were able to restore both his strength and range of movement.

“Training with Clint has been both intense and a privilege.  Each workout that we did was set to a pace that could be a bitch, but he motivated me to push hard in order to complete each workout with either a higher score or bad ass time.  I would describe Clint as a wise cracking, motivating instructor.”
