Sleds. Push. Pull. Drag. Carry.
This is why we program sled work—and why it works.
What sleds do better than almost anything else:

Brutal conditioning, low joint cost
No eccentric loading. Your heart rate spikes without beating up your knees, hips, or spine.

Real-world strength
Push a stalled car. Drag a body. Carry weight under fatigue. This is horizontal force production—useful strength.

Posterior chain dominance
Glutes, hamstrings, calves, trunk. Sleds build the engine most people neglect.

Work capacity without burnout
You can accumulate volume safely. More work. Less recovery debt.

Mental toughness
No rhythm. No bounce. Just force and intent. You either move it or you don’t.

Scalable for everyone
Rehab to elite. Load goes up or down. Same movement. Same benefits.

Sleds don’t care about your max lifts or your excuses.
They reward effort, posture, and consistency.
That’s why they’re a staple here.

MLK Day Schedule at Ownit Rx

We’ll be running one class at 10:00 AM on MLK Day.
The gym will be closed for the rest of the day.

“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?’”
— Martin Luther King Jr.

We train with purpose, then take the day to reflect.
Classes resume as normal tomorrow.

Forward sled push + reverse sled drag. One pairing. Zero fluff.

Push forward to build raw output: quads, glutes, lungs, intent.
Drag backward to bulletproof the knees, light up the VMO, and clean up imbalances most programs ignore.

This combo hits acceleration and deceleration. Power and resilience.
You don’t just get stronger. You get harder to break.

If your training skips reverse drags, you’re leaving joint health and longevity on the table.
Simple. Brutal. Effective.

OWNIT RX — FOOD PYRAMID UPDATE
For decades we were taught to base our diet on grains and “low-fat” foods. That model failed. The modern food pyramid is effectively flipped.
Here’s the updated hierarchy we’re aligning with:
1. Protein comes first — every meal
Build meals around protein: meat, fish, eggs, dairy, beans. This supports muscle, metabolism, blood sugar control, and satiety.
2. Don’t fear fat
Whole-food fats (eggs, meat, olive oil, avocados, nuts) are essential for hormones, joints, and long-term energy. Fat didn’t make people unhealthy — ultra-processed food did.
3. Vegetables and fruit daily
Whole, minimally processed. Fresh or frozen. These support micronutrients, digestion, and recovery.
4. Carbs are optional, not foundational
Choose whole grains if you eat them. Reduce refined carbs and sugar. Most people eat far more carbs than they can actually use.
5. Eliminate what breaks the system
Ultra-processed foods, added sugars, sweetened drinks — these sit at the very bottom for a reason.
6. Hydration matters
Water and unsweetened beverages only. Liquid sugar is one of the fastest ways to sabotage health.
This isn’t a “diet.”
It’s a prioritization system.
Eat real food.
Build meals around protein.
Stop outsourcing health to labels and marketing.
We’ll continue reinforcing this inside training, challenges, and coaching.
Locked in.

Happy New Year,

In 2026, we're cutting through the noise and getting back to what truly works: building capable, durable humans for real life. This isn't about quick fixes; it's about lasting strength, energy, and health.

Introducing FOUNDATIONS — our new 8-12 week training cycle designed to get you stronger, moving better, and feeling more energized without beating up your body. Whether your goal is fat loss, gaining strength, improving conditioning, or simply feeling good in your skin again, this is your clear path forward.

What to Expect with FOUNDATIONS:

✅ Smart, Joint-Friendly Strength: We're integrating more sled work and controlled strength training. Train hard, protect your joints, stay consistent. ✅ Core Strength That Matters: Focus on deep, functional core stability to support your spine, shoulders, and back in everything you do. This is about real-world movement. ✅ A Clear Weekly Flow: No more guessing! Every workout fits into an intentional structure, guiding your progress week after week.

Our OWNIT RX Standards (Long-Term Capability): We’re moving beyond just the scale. We’re building towards confidently pushing, pulling, squatting, running, and carrying through life. This is about being capable.

Healthy Home Focus (Progress Outside the Gym): Your journey extends beyond our doors. Small habits make a HUGE difference: 💧 Hydrate Smart: Glass or stainless steel for water. ⏰ 7 PM Cutoff: Aim for your last meal by 7 PM to boost recovery. 🍎 Real Food First: Prioritize minimally processed foods.

This is not extreme. This is simply better fundamentals for a better you.

Stay locked into our WhatsApp community space – that's where all our announcements, updates, and education will live to support your progress.

You don't need to be fit to start. You just need to show up consistently. We’ll take care of the rest. Let's make 2026 your strongest year yet. 💪

12 years. That’s more than a training relationship — that’s a chapter of life.

You came in as a client and grew into a dear friend. You were part of our small group, our rhythm, our inside jokes — the Three Musketeers. Seeing that crew split up hits differently, because it wasn’t just training, it was community.

You’ve been here through the highs, the growth, and the moments that tested everything. You showed up with consistency, loyalty, and a quiet strength that went far beyond the gym. That kind of presence leaves a mark.

As you step into your next chapter, this isn’t goodbye. It’s see you later. Distance doesn’t undo shared history, trust, or respect. The Three Musketeers may be in different places now, but the bond doesn’t disappear.

Thank you for the years, the effort, the laughs, and the unwavering support. You’ll always be part of this place, and always part of the Ownit Rx family.

Too many families are worried about food right now. We’re stepping up.

OWNIT RX is hosting a Food Drive to support our community during the government shutdown.
All donations will go to the Alameda County Food Bank and the East Oakland Collective.

Donations start Monday — drop off non-perishable items at Ownit Rx, 2850 Hannah Street, Oakland.
Let’s stand together and make a difference.

Farewell, Atomic Dog

This morning, we said goodbye to one of the most unique souls to ever walk through the doors of Ownit Rx, Atomic Dog.

If you’ve trained with the morning crew, you know him. He’d wander the floor with quiet confidence, take in the scene, and somehow command attention without saying a word. For years, he’s been a de facto member of the gym, showing up with Mundi, reminding us what loyalty and presence look like.

Atomic Dog was one of the strangest and coolest dogs I’ve ever met, a true original. There was something about him that made you pause, smile, and just be in the moment.

This morning, Mundi brought him in one last time to say goodbye to the people and the space he’s been part of. It was a quiet, powerful reminder of how deeply our companions shape our lives.

We’ll miss you, Atomic Dog. You were one of one, and you’ll always be part of this place.
