FIRST RESPONDERS
FREE CORPORATE WELLNESS TRAINING
FOR THE TACTICAL ATHLETE
Welcome to the help you have been searching for!
And thank you for what you do every day!
Law Enforcement

ON TOP OF YOUR GAME
PHYSICALLY, MENTALLY, EMOTIONALLY, SPIRITUALLY!
C2C Reset is a 12 week course FREE to all first responders and their families, minus the cost of books. We are a 501c3 privately funded non-profit organization.
Think of C2C Reset as a corporate wellness program on steroids...without the steroids. Our faith based (Christian) 12 week curriculum facilitates a much deeper health, tactical job performance and healing process; from weight loss, energy and functional strength gain, to helping your team with mindfulness, resiliency, support and overcoming PTSD. The stress associated with trauma, loss and life's hardships for the tactical athlete is very real.
We do this online and in person through our team of expert personal trainers/health/life coach practitioners. So our first responders can literally be from anywhere in the United States.
Don't let the faith component fool you. Our goal isn't to take the Badass out of the tactical athlete! Our goal is to help take the anxiety out of the badass! Though we balance faith with science, this is not an easy course and we will not be singing Kumbayah over a campfire.
As a tactical athlete you get hammered physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually, am I right? This can cause a disconnect in each of these 4 areas. Our goal is to meet you right where you are and help you reconnect (RESET) in each one!
-- Every 44-46 hours a law enforcement officer commits suicide!
-- More officers are dying to suicide than in the line of duty!
-- 73-88% of firefighters are overweight or obese!
-- 37% of firefighters did not meet departmental physical recommendations/requirements. We will change this together!
As police officers, fire fighters and EMS you not only have strenuous physical requirements while staying on top of your game, but emotional ones as well. You see it all, the worst of the worst in accidents, fires and people's destructive behavior.
The demands on your mind, body, emotions and spirit are extremely taxing and are at times overwhelming.
How do you learn to maintain a confident boldness yet a compassionate, sincere and unhardened heart while working in an environment of violence and carnage?
How do you self advocate!
We can help you make that separation so you can serve and protect free from the stress that comes with it.
You will learn about good nutrition and exercise but with powerful life changing principles leading the way. Your thoughts, attitudes and performances (TAP) will be in alignment with God, thus producing the best possible results in each area of your life. You will learn to step into the fullness of your position of authority and leadership.
C2C Reset will provide you with the tools to become the best version of yourself possible physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually.
How does this benefit your department? This helps a company's bottom line with decreased sick leave, cost of health care, absenteeism, tardiness and increases job performance, morale, and the whole community service experience. Healthy employees are happy employees!
How the course works:
The nuts and bolts once we have a start date:
(For online courses we have a few alterations.)
Step 3:
Week 1 (part 2) Foundational Seminar:
In this 3 hour seminar we give each person a starting point in nutrition, meal planning, detoxification, supplementation and the science of cardiovascular exercise and strength training as it relates to stress and trauma, personal goals and on the job performance.
Step 4:
Weeks 2-12 in Courage to Change curriculum:
Each week will consist of a 2 hour "teach and share" experience as we go deeper into learning and healing and growing. We piggy-back all 4 of the pillars of health, the physical, mental, emotional and spiritual. The Courage to Change curriculum will facilitate this.
The big question?
What results can you expect?
Though results vary for each person based on individual needs and goals, here is a list of the average results our C2C Reset participants receive:
*Marked improvement on the stress assessment,
*Increased energy and focus,
*Better self-talk and better relationships with self, family, friends, colleagues and God, *Weight loss an average of 30 pounds throughout 12 weeks,
*Lower blood pressure, decreased pain and inflammation,
*Gotten off many medications due to increased health,
*Better sleep regulation, better adoption of healthy habits,
*Conquered alcohol and drug addiction and other self medicating coping mechanisms
*Better overall functional strength, endurance and flexibility for on and off the job performance for the tactical athlete,
*Decreased musculoskeletal injuries, strains and sprains,
*Learned to receive empathy, grace and forgiveness from him or herself, others and God,
*Learned how to self advocate free of shame!
*MANY HAVE GOTTEN THEIR WARRIOR BACK!

Success Story
"1 year ago, I had the opportunity to meet Brian Wellbrock at the
Chiefs of Police conference in Durant, Oklahoma. I was interested in his
program and thought this could really help some of my officers. As the
program start date became closer, I grew more excited about a program to
help the people I consider my family. I never thought about it helping me
until Brian called me and had me answer some questions about what I
wanted the class to do for me. After that call, I knew there were
improvements I needed to make to make me a better husband, father and
leader.
Physically this program was very challenging, and I attest that you
will receive what you put into it. I am in better shape today than I was 15
years ago. I am in my late 40’s and I crave going to the gym and working
out to be prepared for anything that comes my way. Hopefully, I just may
live a little longer. Mentally, this course has helped me choose how I think
and react to situations. I have been able to control my thoughts and be a
more positive person. Turning my stresses over to GOD.
It has also
allowed us to see the positives through all the negatives in the world today.
Spiritually, I feel like I am closer to GOD. I know he has been on the
journey with me and has allowed me to turn difficult things over to him.
There will always be challenges in life, work etc. Having a relationship with
him and praying about those challenges will allow me to make calm
positive decisions. In closing, I never really considered this class would
help me, I wanted to help those I work with, however, after this course I can
say without a doubt that I have changed for the better physically, mentally
and spiritually.
Thank you",

Chief Brian Attaway, you are an amazing leader of your team in Duncan, OK. It was a complete honor working with you and your team. Congratulations on a fantastic job earning your flag and leading by example!

Success Story
"When asked if I wanted to start a workout plan, I was ready. I was at a point in my life
where I had let go for too long. I was ready to change and was just looking for some motivation.
I thought that I would get that from C2C, but what I received was so much more.
The C2C program changed the way I view life. Not only have I lost 50 pounds, but I have
changed the way I view life and the way I live. The most valuable asset I got from this class was
the control I gained of my life and thoughts. This has come from the variable lessons learned by
taking time to think during the day being of upmost value.
Today, I feel my stress and problems
in life are often simplified by a process of thinking about the problems. The act of slowing down
and processing problems as they and before they arise applied to all aspects of life.
In my spiritual life, the same applies. I feel like I have let go of the control and placed it
back in the hands of the father where it belongs. Slowing down and setting goals to work
towards, for myself, my family, and my career has benefited me greatly.
I truly feel, because of Brian and C2C I will live a healthier, happier, and peaceful life in
the future.
Thank you for what you do."

Sergeant Suzannehe Smith
Duncan Oklahoma, PD
Success Story
"I started C2C Reset because I needed guidance with an overall health and wellness program. This program was exactly that, laid out - step-by-step of how to eat, workout, heal, and grow closer to God. I started this program two weeks before I started an extremely difficult 10-week school for work, so I missed out on all of the team building exercises and did not have an accountability partner. At times, it was difficult not to have someone else to lean on and to grow with. However, on the other side, it made me stronger knowing I had to do it on my own and I was accountable to myself and my growth.
I learned a strong base foundation of nutrition and was better about choosing healthy meals and establishing a workout routine. I grew in my faith and confidence. I learned to better manage emotions and to let some stressors go. Lastly, I learned to forgive myself.
Overall, I accepted the challenge and found the courage to continue on. This program has been a positive change in my life and I am grateful I had the opportunity to complete it."

Detective Connor Newman
Duncan Oklahoma, PD
Success Story
"My name is Connor Newman, I am a Detective for the Duncan Police Department and have been in law enforcement for just shy of eight years. This is my personal testimony for Faith in Action, Courage to Change Reset.
Prior to the starting of C2C Reset I had rededicated my life to my Savior Jesus Christ, I was baptized to show my recommitment to my Lord. However, I still needed lots of improvement in my daily walk. Throughout the course I started out each morning being in my Bible maybe 10 minutes. I now try to dedicate the first half hor of my day to prayer and study with God. I have found that this makes a tremendous difference not just in your walk with Christ, but also your attitude and perspective. My negativity slowly seemed to go away and times when I was negative, I noticed it and was reminded how much I have to be thankful for. I was reminded that no matter what life throws at me that a long time ago Jesus literally sweat blood asking God to take death and the cross from him, but that God's will be done. Jesus still endured the cross for me.
On the health and fitness side of C2C I re-learned my love for the gym. Years ago I lost about 120 pounds going from weighing 310 down to 190. I gained a lot of that weight back and started C2C at 280. I lost 15 pounds during the program and remembered that I enjoy working out. For a while after gaining weight back I forced myself to go to the gym because I was "fat" and "looked terrible". Now I have realized I go to the gym because I enjoy it and it is a positive part of my day. The gym is a place to improve my health, my attitude, and my ability to be the best man I can be."

Great job Connor and congratulations earning your C2C Achievement flag. Keep up the great work!

Detective Nathan Hicks
Duncan Oklahoma, PD
Success Story
"I was given the opportunity to attend the C2C Reset 12-week training provided by Brian Wellbrock. I know most people attend for the weight loss portion but that was not my draw to the training. I entered the training for the spiritual and mental health portion due to some unresolved issues I had within myself due a bad end to a lengthy marriage. During the training, Brian gave us techniques on how to combat negative thoughts we may be having about ourselves to include self-image and self-worth. I have been much more successful in stopping those thoughts and turning them into positive self-praise utilizing those same techniques.
I have become less judgmental of myself and have started being reminded we aren't perfect, we all fall short, but God is there to pick us up and being reminded of the love He gives. Even though weight loss was not my primary goal in the training, I still lost a total of 17 pounds. I began taking several of the vitamins, minerals, and supplements recommended by Brian and noticed my brain-fog lessen and my immune system get stronger.
I believe working as a team and holding each other accountable was a huge benefit in all our success. It not only built up our work relationships but also encouraged and assisted us in building stronger personal bonds. All in all, it was a challenging 12 weeks but well worth the time and effort."
--Nathan Hicks
Congratulations Nathan and fantastic job earning your C2C Achievement flag. Keep up the great work as you continue to have the Courage to Change!

Officer Brandon Burchfield
Duncan Oklahoma, PD
Success Story
"For a long time, I felt stuck in habits and patterns that were holding me back. I knew deep down that I wanted more for my life, but the idea of change seemed overwhelming—until I found the courage to take that first step.
One of the biggest changes has been my weight loss journey. I realized that taking care of my body wasn’t just about physical health—it was about honoring the life I’ve been given. It hasn’t been easy, but I’ve learned to value consistency over perfection, and every pound lost has been a reminder of my strength and determination.
Even more transformative has been my journey closer to Christ. I surrendered my struggles and leaned into my faith like never before. Through prayer, worship, and trusting Him with my life, I’ve experienced peace and purpose that I never knew was possible. My relationship with Christ has become my anchor, giving me the strength to face challenges and the hope to move forward.
Along the way, my attitude has changed too. I’ve become more grateful, more patient, and more compassionate—not just with others but also with myself.
I’ve learned to see setbacks as opportunities to grow and to celebrate the small victories along the way.
None of this happened overnight, but every step forward has been worth it. It took courage to begin, faith to keep going, and gratitude to recognize how far I’ve come. I’m proof that change is possible when you trust the process and believe in what God is doing in your life."

Way to go Brandon. Congratulations on earning your flag and changing your life!

Success Story
"Over the 12 weeks of the Courage to Change Reset, I have noticed many things that have changed in my life and would like to express those changes as best I can.
1. PHYSICALLY - Over the 12 week period, I lost a total of 22 pounds. I've gone down 2 inches in my waist size, and fit clothes that I was on the brink of throwing away thinking to myself: "I'll never fit these again." I'm glad I didn't go throw them away! I am extremely happy with the weight I lost and would have never been motivated or challenged to do so if it weren't for this class. Several months before, I knew I needed to lose some weight. I was weighing my heaviest I've ever weighed at 227 pounds. Knowing a beach vacation was coming up, I made the effort to change my diet and lost nearly 20 pounds. I was somewhat happy with the weight loss, but I still didn't feel great, and still felt weak. While I was thrilled with the additional loss of 22 pounds, I'm even more ecstatic about the strength and stamina that I've gained. I'm able to do all the intense manual labor chores around my property without taking breaks all the time. Heck, I couldn't even carry my 2-year old daughter up the stairs to put her to bed without being out of breath!
2. MENTALLY - This course is extremely challenging mentally. I thought I had been eating good until I truly learned about nutrition from Brian. Getting in the mindset of eating the right foods at the right times was challenging. Especially when you have a wife and 3 kids at home that are definitely not on the same page as far as diet goes. Every day was a struggle but you take that struggle hour by hour. For the first 6-7 weeks, breaking the late night snacking, particularly carbs, was the hardest. I found that when I was craving something unhealthy at night, I would just brush my teeth and go to bed to avoid temptation. After a while, my mind became used to it and the cravings went away. Now, I'm used to making the right decisions when it comes to food and my mentality has changed considerably so it is much easier to avoid temptations. I have also become much more mentally strong in the gym. Used to, I would halfway do a workout and say I was exhausted. I'm now able to push myself each day in the gym and I don't give up like I used to.
3. EMOTIONALLY - Anyone who has been a police officer for any time knows the emotional roller coaster that it is. Throw in other every day stressors such as marriage and children and it can be overwhelming at times. I've learned that by telling truths to myself, I'm able to calm down and face any obstacle that comes to me. I'm more patient with co-workers, my wife and definitely my children.
4. SPIRITUALLY - The thing that truly drew me to take the class was the fact that it incorporates a spiritual lens to look through for the rest of the class. You can't grow physically, mentally or emotionally if you are not willing to grow spiritually. For me, growing spiritually seemed more difficult than the rest. It is easy to see the weight loss, but you can't necessarily see the spiritual growth...but you can measure it. Looking back art old photes of my kids, I reminisce about them being so little and can't believe how big they have grown. I was cleaning out my closet one day and saw where we had little lines drawn on the trim with their initials next to the lines. I realized that I couldn't see them growing, but I could measure it. It hit me that my spiritual growth is the same way, I can't see it, but I can measure it. I can look back over the years and see the lack of scripture I was reading, the lack of prayer that I had and fast forward to today, I can measure how much more I'm in God's word and walking in prayer with him."

Success Story
“View your food as FUEL, not comfort.” Those words were like an epiphany to me when
I heard them on the first day of Courage to Change (C2C). As a 28-year Army Veteran
and Police Officer, holistic fitness has always been a part of training, but I could just
never seem to dial in my nutrition and fitness. The last few years have seen me
focusing intently on fitness, but my diet was still in shambles, and I couldn’t see why my
body mass index was so tough to regulate. Then those words, “view your food as
fuel…” That was it. My life has seen me through many traumatic events, especially
overseas as well as a lifetime of emotional stressors.
I didn’t realize how much my food
was being used as a comfort and way for me to cope with that stress emotionally and
spiritually.
My faith has also been on the stronger side over the last several years, but I’ve always
felt a nagging sense of a lack of trust. Trust in what. Trust in myself? In my wife? In
money? It took me walking silently in a stream for a half a mile in February 2024 in
combination with C2C in August 2024 with those words “view your food as fuel…” to
realize where my lack of trust was.
The C2C reset was a catalyst to me realizing how much I lacked trust in God. I didn’t
pray with Him as much as I thought I did, I didn’t spend time meditating on His Words, I
didn’t trust Him to help my healing my emotional stress and to comfort me. My extra
baggage I kept lugging around on my own and so I looked to food, exercise and
accolades to fill that need.
During my time in C2C I learned to Trust God More, to simply just lean on him to be my
friend, my Father, my confidant and to just be with Him and allow Him to release my
burdens. Those words “view your food as fuel, not comfort,” ring in my ears today every
time I’m tempted, and they help me realize how much trash we put into our bodies (and
not just food wise) and how we can use food or other forms of worldly things to make us
feel better, but they’re only temporary.
During the 12 weeks of C2C I have grown closer to God, realized how my physical
exercise and nutrition play a significant part in my spiritual health, and I lost 28 pounds
and reduced my BMI by 6%. The C2C has truly been a life changing event in my life,
and I can’t thank Brian and his family enough for what they do."
--Sergeant Kevin Arnold
Officer Kevin Arnold was at some training in Oklahoma City during the official C2C flag ceremony which was held at the Duncan, OK, PD, so we met up with him later at his training site on our way back to Kansas. Super job digging in and making the changes you did. You da man!

Belle Plaine PD, Kansas
We are so proud of the Belle Plaine PD for their achievements while going through the C2C Reset 12 week course. So many breakthroughs!
We are proud and honored to have become part of your pit crew!
"The C2C Reset course opened some officers hearts and mind about who they are and what they like or dislike about themselves. It helped to change their mindset about the way they sometimes see life issues and how much better it can be to open up to others. Helped them come to the realization that it is healthy to reach out for help even though we are the ones that usually help others. It helped bring God deeper into our lives and motivated some officers to nourish their bodies with healthier foods. I started attending church when I can. I had been working toward losing some weight and getting in shape and C2C helped motivate me to continue that path and enlightened me on eating even healthier than I was." --Police Chief Bill Berry, Belle Plaine, KS.
"C2C helped me to understand that all of the "stuff" I hold inside and don't express are shared by almost everyone in one way or another. I came to understand that God has a plan for me, and that by holding on to self-deprecating believes, I am limiting myself from being all that I can be. God's plan for my service to others comes with a cost, but I never realized before how much I didn't allow God into my life to help me serve God's need for my service." -- Assistance Police Chief, Sergeant Craig Divoll, Belle Plaine, KS

Great job and welcome to our family!
"One of the biggest take-a ways I have received as a result of the Courage to Change curriculum has been in the area of my thoughts. Going through the program I received understanding and strategies to overcome negative thoughts and how they are so detrimental in my life. As a result of the work my relationships with God, myself and others have improved and my confidence as a man of God and a warrior has increased as I’ve practiced replacing the lies I've believed and walked in with the Truth of who God says about me. I also have more understanding of nutrition and physical fitness with motivation to be healthy to be the best man, husband and father I can be." --Ethan
Glen Smoke - Combat Veteran, Lenexa, KS Firefighter & Paramedic
Glen did a fantastic job going through the C2C Reset 12 week course and got his warrior back.
Great job Glen and welcome to our family!
"The course was extremely helpful for me. I was in a bit of a rough place following a divorce, and Brian did a great job of helping me get my life back under control. The scope of everything was a little daunting at first, but he broke it all down into manageable bites, and I can say I’m definitely doing better than I was at the beginning. I had a lot of small breakthroughs that added up to big results, from watching my energy level increase to having to get a new belt, since I got too skinny for the old one. I’ve developed sustainable healthy eating habits, lost a bunch of body fat, and feel better physically than I have in a long time. Understanding nutritional timing and metabolism has been huge for me. Spiritually and emotionally I’m doing really well also, I just feel better about myself and the direction I’m going. I've become a calmer, happier person, and it's been noticed by both my coworkers and my family. It's become a lot easier to be patient with my young kids, which I was struggling with for a while. I've still got work to do, but with what Brian helped me learn, I've got my warrior back, so I know I'll get where I want to go." --Glen
Augusta, KS PD / FIRE / EMT
We are so honored to have taken the Augusta, KS PD, Fire and EMT through C2C Reset. We saw some pretty amazing results and the team did an amazing job of doing the deep dive, losing weight and having the Courage to Change.
Team Augusta lost over 100 pounds collectively!
Chief Todd Ackerman, Augusta, KS PD / FIRE / EMT - Lost 20 pounds
I am so proud to share with you the testimony of the Chief of Police/Director of Public Safety in Augusta, KS, Todd Ackerman. He and his team did a fantastic job while going through C2C Reset. Chief Ackerman and his team found out that life didn't stop for them while they went through C2C Reset. The tools they were learning weekly during C2C were needed to navigate real stress, loss and trauma in real time. Chief Ackerman's mother died just a few weeks into the course and their community experienced a murder. Needless to say, adhering to a nutrition plan while going through that kind of loss and stress is difficult. But Chief Ackerman persevered and still managed to lose 20 pounds.
I am honored to share with you his testimony...
"The C2C program was introduced to me in May of this year at a conference for chiefs of police in the state of Kansas. I spoke with Brian for several minutes about what the program is and how it can help not only me but my agency. There are many health and weight loss programs around and I am always skeptical. After learning that C2C is not just weight loss, but also taking control of your mind, body, and spiritual self. It is a faith-based program that lets you take a hard look at yourself in all ways from the obvious physical, but the spiritual self and your thought process about how and why you should take care of your body. I enrolled our department into the program, and we started in the late summer of 2023.
We started out with the usual measurements of the body for a starting point. Then every week we would discuss our habits and what we were eating along with exercise programs as well. Then we always have a spiritual side to the lesson. God placed us here to honor him. What better way to do this and to honor him with us taking care of our bodies. I never thought of this before. It is true as we are taught that our bodies are temples, and we should treat them that way. Now, we all are made of different sizes to heights to mindsets. Some people are driven hardcore for physical appearance, and some would like to just loose 30 pounds. In my case I am looking at a long term of 80lbs. to lose. I will get there with what I have learned.
I am not a body builder, but I have learned to use exercise as a form of stress relief. As a chief of police, I have plenty of stress. I was also a stress eater.
One of the other aspects I never really thought of about getting in shape is the aspect of staying faithful to myself, God, and my spouse with this program. Staying faithful in the sense I will not fail this program in their eyes so I will always be around on this earth with my spouse as I should be. Respecting your body and taking care of it is not only a promise to yourself, but to God and your spouse.
My wife and I now cook together and speak openly about the struggles and openly about the high times as well. I would promote this program to whoever wants to take control of their stress and life as a whole."

He is a shining example of dedication to his health physically, mentally, emotionally and spiritually. On January 21, 2024 I had the honor of baptizing Derek in the Arkansas river on a cold, windy and overcast day. I can't think of a better day to do it! We are all so proud of you Derek and congratulations on giving your heart to God and putting Him first.
I am honored to share with you his testimony...
"Amazing day today. Got baptized in the Arkansas River!

Sergeant Glen Davidson, Valley Center, KS Police
Meet Glen, a Sergeant from Valley Center, KS, PD. Glen was paired up with a veteran from Florida as he went through the C2C Reset course via live Skype online video conferencing. He recently finished C2C Reset with flying colors. Every week he did the deep dive as he learned and grew and had the Courage to Change.
Glen lost 34 pounds and His wife lost 80 pounds.
Here is Glen's testimony...
"Before I met Brian, I remember working out and eating certain foods and I was able to get my weight down to 210 pounds. Even though I lost weight, I was still not happy with my results. After a while, I slowly stopped working out and my eating habits changed again. A few years later I was back up to 245 pounds. I was not happy with the way I looked or how my clothes fit anymore. I knew I could get my weight down again to 210 pounds. I started working out, but the weight was not coming off. Changing diets was not the easiest to do either with a family.
I met Brian at a Chief’s Conference, and he told me about the 12-week challenge. I knew I wanted to lose weight and I wanted a better workout routine. I decided to give it a try. At first, I felt I knew what I wanted and that was just more information on how to work out and what to eat. As I went through the course with Brian, I learned there is more to getting into shape and staying in shape. I learned that I had to be better spiritually, mentally, and emotionally to be better physically. After I learned the importance of being more spiritual, getting a better mindset and checking my emotions I was able to lose 34 pounds during the course. I am happier now, than I was last time I lost weight. I have goals to keep striving for. I now feel I have a more complete knowledge of how to loose weight and keep it off."

Meet Blake, an officer from Rose Hill, KS, PD. Blake did a fantastic job while going through C2C Reset. His awareness of when and how he stress eats is now out in the open where he can deal with it and make changes in real time and a very real busy schedule.
Here is Blake's testimony...
"This program is all in what you make it. If you adhere to the program you will see results. This will not only benefit you, but those around you. Don't think of the program as just a physical weightloss journey, but also a mental check. If you are a Christ follower this program will also help you become closer with Christ. Not only you, but those around you will notice the difference over the next three months.
My first meal after our first class was a can of tuna, I don't mind tuna but just eating soggy mushy tuna from a can, I was miserable. I quickly learned it helped to have my wife on board with me. As I/m no cook,she helped prepare healthier meals and informally joined me in my weight loss. I did not do as good as I wanted to and my results show this, but even not being as strict as I should have been, dealing with both Thanksgiving and Christmas holiday meals, and switching back to night shift I was able to maintain approximately ten pounds lost, a fur coat as Brian would say, of lost weight through the end. Good luck!"

Meet Captain Jason Conrad with the Rose Hill Kansas, PD. Despite the rigors of leadership in law enforcement, Captain Conrad showed up every week and worked hard. Captain Conrad has a goal of losing at least 80 pounds and is on his way.
Here is Jason's testimony...
"I began the C2C program with a very hi level of encouragement. I had been looking for a program that would fill the need of nutrition and exercise. As an added bonus, there was a mental and spiritual aspect. As the program went along, for me, the program seemed to focus on introspective of myself. Through the program I was able to start to understand how all aspects of my life intertwined with each other.
The program provided a mentor who had gone through the program and was in a similar role in our profession. I did not reach out to my mentor, but he did reach out to me a couple of times and let me know he was there for support.
During the program, I was challenged spiritually with putting all my effort into the program. I soon accepted that the more I put into the program the more I got out of it.
The program gave me several tools to make sure I was reaching my goals.
I will continue to go back through my resources and continue to do the program again. Seeing the information for multiple times, I hope to gain more understanding about myself and continue to improve my body and my spiritual walk with God!"

Here is Dustin's testimony:
"Well I lost almost 20 pounds. I am down 18.6 lbs. I have went down in pant sizes and shirt sizes from 3xlt to 2xlt. I do feel more energized. I play with my son more and have started to do things around the house a lot easier and more productively. My back was a big part of my lack of activity, a lot of middle back pain and it is down a lot now. I'd say it was about a 7-8 on a 1-10 scale daily and now it is 2-3 and mainly sore at the end of the day. I am a lot more aware of what I eat and drink now. I don't drink alcohol but I was a heavy diet soda drinker.
Mentally I feel pretty sharp now. I am better to myself I think. I have become stronger in telling others what I want versus keeping it to myself. I have noticed that it has changed people's opinions of me and they are used to taking advantage of me, and that is not who I am today. So, I am fine with that and feel great. I am calmer I think. I also feel like it has made me a little more "firey" if that makes sense.
I have felt Gods presence and peace more now. I struggled with committing time to read the Bible and now I found I like to read in bed and pray in bed. I also have started to pray over my family and home daily and feel a huge difference in our home.
I like the program. I think the meetings were helpful for me. I wish we had more participation from our group. I think we could have done more together. Maybe even had a few workouts together would have been fun. But I enjoyed hearing you and Blake and Cpt. each week. I had a good time learning and will continue to grow and get stronger. I am excited to see what I can do now! Thank you for providing this program to us. It has been great."

Veteran and Career Law Enforcement Officer Rob Brinton from Northern California
Meet Rob, a recently retired law enforcement officer from Northern California and veteran. Rob found C2C Reset through our web site while he was looking for programs to better his life, his health, and further heal from a long career in law enforcement. I am proud to say that Rob did a fantastic job while going through the course. We uncovered many things and navigated our way to victory. Rob was presented his custom C2C Reset Achievement flag from his church in northern California. I was able to coordinate this presentation with the Director of Care Ministries at his church. It is with honor I share with you his testimony while going through C2C Reset.
Here is Rob's Testimony...
"C2C Courage to Change is not exactly what I expected. I thought I had everything under control, that I had healed and was doing well. The key aspect of my healing journey turned out to be the absence of an intimate relationship with God. Prior to starting the program, I had lost 37 pounds, but then I hit a roadblock. It took several weeks, but with Brian's help, we discovered that my testosterone levels were low.
I have been retired for 4 years after serving in Tehama County, CA law enforcement for 28 years. Every year, my testosterone had consistently dropped, but according to the doctors, it was within the normal range. I had no energy, felt fatigued, had brain fog, and just never felt well. Once I began testosterone replacement therapy, everything changed for the better. I also found myself in a better mental space to draw closer to God. My focus shifted to overall well-being, encompassing health, nutrition, fitness, and renewed my spiritual connection with God.
Brian genuinely cared about me and supported me as a coach, friend, and mentor. I have lost a total of 10 pounds and am now below my patrol weight at 58 years old. I recommend this program for any first responder or vet and experience the freedom he has predestined for you. Free of depression, maladaptive thoughts, poor coping mechanisms, hurts, habits and hang ups. He who is free in Christ is free indeed!"

Success Story
"Earlier this year, I attended the Kansas Association of Chiefs of Police Spring Conference, where I met Brian Wellbrock. Little did I know, that meeting would profoundly change my perspective on health, fitness, and faith. Brian introduced me to his program, the Courage to Change (C2C) Reset, and shared how it’s designed to help people achieve physical health and align their fitness and nutrition goals with their walk with God.
Until then, I had never considered including the Lord in my approach to fitness and nutrition. Brian’s personal testimony of transformation and his passion for helping others inspired me. His commitment to honoring God by taking care of the body as a temple of the Holy Spirit resonated deeply with me.
Through the C2C Reset, he challenged me to see health as an act of stewardship, a way to glorify God by caring for the gift of life and strength He has given us. Motivated by his example, my wife Megan and I decided to embark on the C2C Reset journey together. It wasn’t just about following a workout routine or a nutrition plan—it was about reshaping our perspective on how health and faith intertwine. The program encouraged us to invite God into every aspect of our journey, from meal planning to workouts, and even into moments of rest and reflection.
Through the C2C Reset, Megan and I developed strategies that have transformed both our physical health and our spiritual lives. We began praying together before workouts, using those moments to ask God for strength and to thank Him for the ability to move, grow, and improve. We learned to approach nutrition with discipline and gratitude, recognizing that fueling our bodies well is another way to honor God.
The results have been nothing short of life-changing. Physically, we feel stronger and more energized.
Spiritually, we’ve grown closer to God and to each other. This program wasn’t just a reset for our habits—it was a reset for our hearts. The tools and principles we’ve learned through the C2C Reset will carry with us forever, not just to maintain our health but to live lives that glorify God in all we do. The Courage to Change program has shown us that transformation isn’t just about willpower or self-improvement—it’s about surrendering every area of life to God and trusting Him to guide the process. Megan and I are deeply grateful for Brian’s encouragement and example.
Through the C2C Reset, we’ve discovered that caring for our bodies isn’t just about us; it’s an act of worship and a testimony to God’s grace and power to transform every aspect of our lives. We are committed to continuing this journey and sharing what we’ve learned, knowing that the joy and strength we’ve experienced are meant to be shared with others. Thanks to Brian and the C2C Reset, we’ve embraced a healthier, more intentional way of living that brings glory to God."
