Devon and his bike outside KnucklUp OBX

That’s right, KnuckleUp isn’t just about fighting and fitness on the Outer Banks anymore. Our newest member is bringing a little motorcycle mayhem our way. Devon Pilkington is a professional Arenacross racer! How awesome is that?
Devon is a Virginia native who has just started coming to the gym recently. For those not in the loop, Arenacross is held in an arena (obviously), has a dirt track, and a lot of jumps. Try holding on to your bike when your flying through the air at 50 mph. It takes a lot of strength, and Devon picked KnuckleUp as his place to get conditioned, working with Matt in the kickboxing class.

Warrior Fit Testimonials

First, I want to say thank you for convincing me to do Tabata! I was struggling to lose weight and Finally I found something that helped! I really appreciate your coaching! - Craig T.

Ever since I was convinced to do Tabata I have seen huge results, I lost 6 pounds and gained energy in the first 3 weeks. I have been working out for 3 months before I decided to do Tabata and I struggled to lose weight. At first I thought "How am I losing weight by bringing my heart rate up then cooling down then bringing it up again?" I don’t know how it works but it does! Thank you!! - Theresa F.

The first day of Tabata, I wondered WHAT AM I DOING - I AM 56 !! Five weeks later I knew that it was what I needed. I learned that I could push myself well beyond my comfort zone and feel good later. I have a marked improvement in physical as well as emotional endurance. - Lyn C.

When I was first told about Tabata I was very excited from the word go, however that excitement stemmed from the fact that I had no clue what it meant. I missed the first week of class b/c I was traveling for work so when I came in during the 2nd week I had some making it up to do. It was hard at first b/c my body wasn't used to working out at such a fast pace, but once I got into a rhythm I started to feel very good. These classes are no joke. If you stick with it you will leave there feeling stronger, healthier and overall better about yourself and what you've accomplished. I would recommend these classes to anyone. Darrin is a great trainer and he'll keep you going with his energy. - Jami L.
