Aside from punches, encircling the neck in either a #headlock or guillotine is a very common behavior in a fight. I’m very lucky that I have friends and coworkers to let me practice some defenses and counters with the gear on (an additional 20lbs / 9kgs). Torso flexion is much more difficult. Keeping the back of my belt clear is much nicer on my lower back, particularly if I am stuck underneath someone.

@kyspromotions & @larryperreira punching because they care!

Transitions with the @revgear motion master at the station with the training uniform. I tried to do 15, 30 second intervals of continuous movement which is very difficult! Torso rotation, flexion & changing direction are much harder with the gear (approximately 20lbs / 9kgs). My goal is to get comfortable enough to forget I’m wearing my kit. This was also the first time I tried this with the NCP-E by @blackboxcustoms_ & @the_theory_police attached to my holster. I like the tourniquet there because it frees up space on my belt and it helps keep the back of my belt clear. I was worried it would interfere with the movement since it sticks out more, but so far so good. I had to offset the placement of the TQ slightly because it was getting in the way of the hood.

I received this message a few weeks ago: “My grandson is from San Clemente loves skateboarding does karate and he follows you on instagram. He will be in town and would love to meet you at the skatepark.” Andrew’s grandmother made the drive from Tacoma so the least I could do was a quick station tour and skate session. He had been riding a 7.75 and mentioned he was thinking about an 8 for his next board. I got to give Andrew one of @mikevallely’s pro models! Great meeting you Andrew! I hope we get to skate together again one day. Huge mahalo again to Mike for helping me spread the stoke up here! 🙏🏽🛹🤙🏽 #police #outreach #aloha #makeadifference #aiea #sanclemente #skatelikeacop #streetplantbattalion #skatecreateenjoy 🎵 @not_theking

I told Sarael I haven’t done #pullups in uniform since March and that the gear adds at least 20lbs / 9kgs. As you can see, he wasn’t having any of my excuses. Also, Faye is the director 😂👊🏽🤙🏽#bellevue #police #fitness #outreach #aloha #makeadifference

At the beginning of last month, @isaacshorack came to our station and shared his words and his heart with several of my coworkers. He also tried #jiujitsu for the first time, and @evandroskilla was so impressed by his actions that he sent us this. I’ll get the gear to Isaac and give away the other stuff to deserving people in our #community Evandro, thank you! 🙏🏽🥋🤙🏽
