This Just Might Hurt

I started my day by working out with my first client. We walked the Beast and then did 5 circuits of pullups, pushups, SB crunches, squats and SB leg curls. The key to this workout is the target reps on each exercise is 15 but once you reach 15 you still have to continue until the last person hits 15 reps on whichever exercise they are doing. We then walked the Beast again. Also, my son joined us for the workout and got his first taste of the Beast.....and he conquered it twice......way to go Rob!!
Then, I did the same workout again with my next client.....the whole thing including walking the Beast twice.
Not a bad start to my day.
A good end to the day was walking lunges up Elmo with my last client of the day. And, a big "way to go" SP for being the first man to do any of the landmark long distance walking lunge workouts!! Except for myself, these workouts have been the domain of the women.
