TOPFIT Daily Activities --- Walking Lunges, a Quick Leg Workout and Heavy Bag
Once again I got my day off to an early start with 1/4 mile of walking lunges with a client (in addition to our 2 brisk 1/2 mile walks). About 8 weeks ago we set a record time of 15 min 6 sec for the lunges......about 2 weeks ago we crushed that with a time of 13 min 31 sec..........today we shaved another 51 secs off that for a time of 12 min 40 sec.......ouch!
After my morning sessions I added insult to injury with a quick workout of BB front squats, SLDLs, and SB crunches.
Later I spent 30 mins on the heavy bag.

Hi! I'm Patrick Frey, your in-home, online and on-the-trail Personal Trainer, Fitness Educator, and Strength & Conditioning Specialist. With over 35 years of fitness experience, and certifications from the National Strength and Conditioning Association, the International Sports Sciences Association, and the American Council on Exercise, I have the knowledge and experience you need to reach your health and fitness goals. My interests over the years have included running, bicycling, cross-country skiing, hiking, backpacking, bodybuilding, powerlifting, olympic lifting, volleyball, and general health, fitness and nutrition. I've trained hundreds of people of all ages and abilities from elite athletes to sedentary couch potatoes, in everything from well equipped gyms to un-equipped homes, online, in the park and on the trails. To me, there's nothing more exciting than helping people improve their health, look better, feel better, or improve their sports performance.
