This is going to be super fun to give away! 🙏🏽🤙🏽

We were able to give away 11 beautiful handmade quilts to people in our #community thanks to an incredible donation from @myquietreflections. 🙏🏽🌍🤙🏽

The tripod or hook sweep is a #jiujitsu technique that can also be applicable in #selfdefense situations. Although the vest and belt greatly reduce torso flexion and rotation, that sweep is still possible in uniform. I’m very fortunate to have friends and coworkers who help me verify that in training. 🙏🏽🥋🚔🤙🏽 #police #fitness #trainweeklyorfightweakly #aiea #oahugrown

#shockknife Saturday. Much learned, much to learn. Mahalo @warriorstrengthtrainer 🙏🏽🤙🏽 #police #training #fitness #edgedweapons #trainweeklyorfightweakly #aiea #oahugrown

January 1, 2016. Officer Smith was called to a convenience store about a man harassing people outside the store. He located a subject matching the description. Ofc Smith instructed the male to stop. The male did not stop and kept his right hand in his pocket. Ofc. Smith displayed his taser and instructed the male to take his hand out of his pocket. The male shot several rounds at ofc Smith striking him in the neck and left arm. Ofc. Smith radioed in that he had been shot and the suspect was eventually located and arrested. Ofc Smith took two years to recover from a severed vein in his neck and shattered bones in his left forearm. He is still in law enforcement. The suspect was eventually sentenced to 35 years in prison. The video was captured by camera that ofc Smith purchased himself.

Sitting outside @gracieuniversityhq eating lunch with @larryperreira, Raph, and Jay.

Me: “Eh Larry, you know what would be funny? If you make like you doing #muscleups and #pullups on the hand rail.”

Larry: “Hold my spam musubi…” 😂😂🤙🏽#tbt #daswhyhard #oahugrown #waipahu #aiea #makeanykine #fitness

My friend and firearms coach @buliwyf_actual let me borrow a spare @safarilandgroup belt and holster so I could test it a little before work.

I did 3 sets of the following: 10 #pullups hanging from grip & holster, 10 pull-ups hanging from the grip, 10 seconds of pulling on the grip/holster with some momentum, and 10 seconds of hanging from just the grip. Total time under tension about 1 minute 20 seconds. This is the 6th time I have done this sequence, so the total time under tension (155lbs / 70.3kgs) is about 8 minutes.

I used a Safariland belt, a Safariland 6360RDS ALS/SLS holster, Safariland UBL mid-ride, and a QLS fork and receiver. Also installed was a 2nd generation Negative Cant Plate (NCP2) by @the_theory_police / @blackboxcustoms_ and it was all held together by Safariland OEM factory bolts.

I did some draws afterwards and everything appeared to be intact from the belt buckle to the retentions and the NCP2. The cumulative effect will probably break something eventually, but it is reassuring to know the various parts were able to handle what I did so far. 🙏🏽🥋🤙🏽 #police #weaponretention #jiujitsu #grip #fitness #trainweeklyorfightweakly #graciesurvivaltactics #selfdefense #oahugrown #aiea

One day, my mind will tell my body to move and my body won’t be able to. I don’t know when that day will be, but it’s not today. #fitness #oldman #bodyweight #sitthrough #pushups #RFT #trainweeklyorfightweakly

Looking forward to to our skate session one day Angus! 🇺🇸🤙🏽 #police #outreach #aloha #makeadifference #spreadthestoke @streetplant #streetplantbattalion #aiea #oahugrown #skatelikeacop

Unboxing stuff can be noisy so I kept it #tactical. Mahalo @jockofuel! 👊🏽🇺🇸🤙🏽 #madeinamerica #police #outreach #aloha #makeadifference #good #disciplineequalsfreedom #trainweeklyorfightweakly #aiea #oahugrown #jiujitsu

If you search #shockknife you’ll find a lot of demonstration videos but very few with any live sparring. Now I understand why 😂. Definitely makes you respond more realistically. Mahalo to @kai_ozeki for attacking me. Day by day 🙏🏽🤙🏽 #police #trainweeklyorfightweakly #jiujitsu #edgedweapons #fitness #aiea #oahugrown #graciesurvivaltactics

Finding a good #bodyweight #workout became really important for #fitness maintenance during these crazy times. Here I tired some @basruttenmma with some #sithrus from @da_rulk thrown in. Very difficult! Dynamic movement in uniform is much harder and the additional weight from the gear (20lbs / 9kgs) really adds up towards the end. I was only able to do 5, 3 minute rounds at an acceptable intensity. Good to know the limitations in training. Feel free to share your favorite fitness modalities! Not running though, I hate running 😂. Day by day. 🙏🏽🤙🏽 #police #oldman #trainweeklyorfightweakly #aiea #oahugrown
