Sean: My motivation is simple. BE BETTER! Better than I was yesterday, last year. Just show progression.

PTF:  What has helped you be successful at your attempts to stay in shape?

Sean:  Staying positive.  Even when life seems to knock me down, I learn from the experience.  I don’t get beat the same way twice!

PTF:  What do you like most about working out – and working! – at PrimeTime?

Sean:  Being in the Navy, I’ve worked out in the best gyms in the world. And I’ve worked out in the worst. I love the ‘family’ here at PrimeTime. To see the regular faces and welcome them daily is AWESOME!

PTF:  Tell us a little about your training background and how it has influenced you today.

Sean: As a civilian trainer, I’ve helped several folks reach their goals. It’s a bit different for military, where fitness is a must!

PTF:  What’s your favorite form of exercise (as if we don’t already know!)?

Sean: As everyone who sees me knows…KETTLEBELLS!

PTF:  What do you do when you are not exercising?  Got any hobbies?

Sean: My full-time position is a firefighter/EMT at Boeing South Carolina.  I love to cook and dabble in mixology. The kitchen is my favorite room in the house!PTF:  What do you do when you are not exercising?  Got any hobbies?

PTF:  Tell us about your family.

Sean:  I love my children.  They range in age from 9 to 25. They are my motivation . . . they are always looking to say “I beat Dad!”

PTF:  Is there something about you that not many people know and most would be surprised by?

Sean: I was a skateboarder for the majority of my life.  It made me the man I am today, as it gave me the courage and belief in myself to do anything I set my mind to.  My high school sport was not football or basketball, like most people would think – but bowling!  I was a nerd . . LOL!

PTF:  Do you have any words of wisdom for others?

Sean: Even if you are afraid to try something, tell yourself I can do this!”  And believe it.

PTF:  Why do you want to be in the 2018 Charleston Animal Society’s Firefighter Calendar?

Sean:  To be included in the calendar would be an honor.  But even more important is raising funds for animals and helping them find homes and receive necessary health care!  I want to give back in honor of a dog I adopted years ago… Neves was like a child to me.  Loved that dog . . .

And we love you, Sean!  Thanks for all you do.  We’ll be “pulling” for you on Saturday as you’re “PUSHING FOR PUPPIES!”

STAFF RECIPE FILE

Carrot “Bacon”

Ingredients:

• 1 large carrot
• 1 tbsp tahini
• 1 tbsp light oil (e.g. rapeseed/canola)
• 1 tbsp maple syrup
• 1.5 tsp coconut aminos or soy sauce
• 1 tsp liquid smoke

Directions:

1. Peel and top & tail the carrot, then slice very thinly.
2. Blitz the rest of the ingredients together for 30 seconds or so, until you have a thick marinade.
3. Place the carrot and marinade into a dish, mix together so that all of the carrot slices are coated, and set to one side for 30 minutes.
4. Heat your oven to 200°C/400°F
5. Place the carrot strips side-by-side on cookie sheet (line it with parchment or a silicone mat if it’s not non-stick), spread the rest of the marinade evenly over the strips, and then bake for 15-25 minutes, depending on how crispy you want your ‘bacon’ to be.
