FEATURE FRIDAY: CHARLIE BRITTON 🏒
Meet Charlie! At just 11 years old, Charlie has been training with us for the past 6 months alongside his older brother Ethan, as part of the Britton family crew with Dad Dave and Mom Jamie.
Charlie is a passionate hockey player and goalie, and his favourite team is the Boston Bruins. He looks up to some of the special goalies who have played for Boston and hopes to follow in their footsteps.
Since starting training, Charlie has noticed a huge difference in how strong and fast he feels on the ice. One of his favourite improvements has been how much easier it feels to push across the crease when playing goal.
But hockey isn’t the only thing Charlie enjoys about training. He loves the competitive environment and especially enjoys being pushed to work as hard as he can when training alongside the others at OPP.
One thing we’ve really appreciated about Charlie is his willingness to work hard, regardless of who he’s competing against. He’s constantly racing and competing with his older brother Ethan, who has a two-year head start, and never loses his great attitude win or lose. He just gets back to work.
And the progress has been pretty impressive:
💪 18 lb → 125 lb deadlift
💪 20+ push-ups
💪 60+ second dead hang
💪 40 lb goblet squat
💪 And he’s strong enough to pickup and fireman carry his brother all the way across the gym
Outside of hockey and training, Charlie loves to travel. His favourite trip so far was Japan, where he got to experience the bullet train.
He’s also incredibly creative. His brother describes him as someone who loves to build and engineer things, which lead him to buy and constantly play around with a 3D printer!
And if Charlie had unlimited money?
He’d build himself a huge private hockey rink. 🏒
Keep working, Charlie. We’re excited to see where you take it! 👊 Charlie B
