TOPFIT Daily Activities --- Lower Table Rock Run and a Heavy Bag Workout
After taking care of business for the day, a Lower Table Rock run seemed to be the right thing to do....so, consider it done!  Later, I spent 30 mins in my gym doing a moderate intensity heavy bag workout.

At first I thought I was getting a pic of a wild onion, then realized it was a manzanita flower that had blown to the ground....still a cool pic though.



I didn't even notice the flowers in the background until I downloaded the pics. I'll have to go back and get a good pic of them soon.

About Your Trainer

Medford, OR, United States
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.
