TOPFIT Daily Activities --- The ~TOPFIT Birthday Workout~ and an Upper Table Rock Run
My birthday present to myself.......the patented ~TOPFIT Birthday Workout~.....4 circuits of KB swings (24 kg), burpees, chinups, pushups, SB crunches and SB leg curls. The repetitions on the four circuits were 55, 8, 25, 58 (my age and the date of my birth).
I figure if I can survive this workout, I'm probably good for another year.
After a few hours with Hailey I headed out to Upper Table Rock for a fun run.

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.
