Lower Table Rock

So, what happens when you have a howling wind, pouring rain, temps hovering around 40 deg and a crazy SOB with a couple of hours of “flex” time in the morning?
You get one crazy SOB hiking Lower Table Rock and ending up soaked, with frozen, prune-like feet and a huge smile on his face!!
There was no avoiding the puddles and staying dry this time….I just had to wade my way through them.

Common Terms and General Notes


The Punisher
-- a narrow forest trail that gains about 1500 ft elevation in a little over a mile. The full circuit includes a run/hike of about 1 mile to get to the trailhead and about a 3 mile run/hike to get back down. This makes the Table Rocks seem like a walk in the park.

Tabatas -- high intensity interval protocol where an exercise is done at full 100% intensity for 20 seconds followed by 10 seconds of rest -- the default number of these intervals is 8 -- done properly, these will knock you on your butt!!

Various Random Activities (VRAs) -- these may include such things as gardening, housework, ADL, XST, ASA, short walks, etc........use your imagination.

Abbreviations -- DB=dumbbell -- BB=barbell -- SB=stability ball -- KB=kettlebell -- MB=medicine ball -- SLDL=straight (or stiff) leg deadlifts
