A typical Sunday at Rock Church in Point Loma can mean getting lost in a sea of thousands of people, which for some is welcomed. For others, however, they desire a more intimate experience where they can connect with others.
Enter the Rock Church microsite location in Coronado: Proteus Gym. From the outside, Proteus Gym blends in with the other businesses that surround it, but once you walk inside, families and friends make the weights and workout apparatuses disappear.
“Not so long ago,” shares Jeff Bramstedt, former Navy SEAL and Coronado microsite attendee, “my friends, Brian Tucker and Juan “Gonzo” Gonzalez opened a gym in Coronado. They had the goal of reaching out to young men who have the desire to be in the US Navy SEAL Teams and giving families an alternative to the average gym membership. During the week, they run group classes and training systems that are very SEAL-like. Navy SEALs, trainees, future trainees, and civilians train side by side. The gym is very raw, with huge tractor tires against the wall, pull-up bars everywhere, caving ladders and ropes hanging from the ceiling, and weights in various shapes and sizes everywhere.”
