GETTING WOUNDED VETERANS OFF THE

COUCH AND BACK INTO LIFE...

3

About Phoenix Training

Phoenix Training was started as a way to provide inex-

pensive physical training for wounded veterans to help

them heal from the physical and emotional wounds of

combat.

With the increasing abuse of VA prescribed and other

recreational drugs, too many veterans are sitting on the

couch and zoning out of life. We work with veterans to

give them goals and new dreams. We believe that get-

ting one’s body strong again is part of the process to

helping healing the mind and soul of a veteran. We de-

velop training plans, or times where one of our trainers

works with the veteran in either a one on one or family

working out together situation. We believe that setting

a difficult physical goal like completing a mud run, a 50k

bike ride, bodybuilding, competing in a crossfit or pow-

erlifting competition helps keep the veteran motivated

long-term.

We are a travelling functional fitness gym, and travel

close to the veteran. This allows a veteran to begin their

fitness journey in places where they would feel comfort-

able. We usually go to local parks and do a 45-60 mi-

nute workout in groups of 5-6 or less. That way we can

adapt the workouts to take the veteran from where they

are at, and enable them to grow in their fitness journey.

Get stronger, and feel better about where they are in

their healing.

We are not just about getting people physically fit. We

believe that fitness is an access ramp to helping veterans

with other parts of their lives. In nearly all cross fit, mud

run, bike ride or weight lifting functions that I have at-

tended, wounded veterans would start talking about

fitness. Then within a few minutes the conversation

changes to something else going on in their lives. While

it’s helpful and healthy to see Veterans lose weight and

feel better about themselves. Many times, they need the

motivational push of exercise to work through their own

demons. Getting off the VA drugs and into healthy eat-

ing and fitness has been proven many times over to be

better for wounded Veterans with children and families.

It gives them the energy they need to go back to school

or work, and live a rewarding life. This is my end goal

with the program, to see more and more veterans be-

come healthy and live productive positive lives.

The honor Group

In 2014, Phoenix Training teamed up with The Honor Group as an

ambassador under their 501c3 non-profit umbrella to be able to

apply for VA and other Grants in order to keep the training and

counseling affordable to the veteran and his/her family. Through

them, your sponsorship of Phoenix Training and the West Coast

Independence Games is fully Tax-Deductible.

The West Coast Independence Games

The West Coast Independence Games are an adaptive

functional fitness event for wounded veterans,

first responders and other adaptive athletes.

From 2011-2014, there was under ten adaptive fitness

competitions in the entire country and all of them

were in the Midwest, Texas and on the East

coast. After training veterans for Crossfit, Mud Runs,

MMA and Long bike rides for a couple of years, we

saw the need to have an event for Adaptive veter-

ans on the West Coast.

Phoenix Training, with our partners at The Honor

Group, wanted to host a two day event where we

brought together Adaptive Crossfitters and Veterans

together in California. We want to

challenge warriors to push beyond their normal fit-

ness level and display how far along they are in their

journey.

The Games will have 4 groupings: Wheelchair, Lower

extremities, Upper extremities and PTSD/TBI. We will

scale events, workouts and scale points in each WOD

so that every one will have a chance to not only

compete but have success.
