Elevate Strength and Fitness

Today we honored the memory of Barrett Black with our annual Hold On workout along side our gym family and members of our community

Hey Fit Fam! This is an open community event, we would be honored if you would join us!

A reminder we will be honoring the memory Ben's brother Barrett tomorrow with the "Hold On" Workout at the 4pm and 5pm Classes. This event is open to the community and we encourage you to attend and participate. This is a good time to meet some of our gym members and to honor the memory of Barrett Black. There is a great video of Ben discussing the workout at the end of this post.

“Hold On”

4 Rounds for Time

11 Burpees over Kettlebell

19 American Kettlebell swings

25ft handstand walk

94 Double Unders

Barrett Duane Black was born on April 19, 1994. His earthy life ended on June 11, 2014. This workout is a tribute to his life. The 19 KB swings should be completed unbroken. This will serve as a reminder to “hold on” through the difficult times in life. A kettlebell was chosen to signify the importance of meeting people where they are. A kettlebell is portable making this workout easier to complete at home or on the go. The handstand walk can be scaled to 25 HSPU or pushups, but symbolizes how su***de can turn their loved ones’ lives upside down and 25 is also the age he would have been the year the workout was created. The 94 DU marks the year he was born, and should be scaled to 194 singles. Su***de has a profound effect on not only the person carrying the burden, but also those who feel powerless to stop it. Always reach out to your loved ones when you see them struggle, and if you find yourself in a dark place with no light in sight please find a reason to “Hold On.” With Ben Black DC Kim Jeramie
