TOPFIT Daily Activities --- Upper Table Rock Run and a Delt/Bi/Tri Workout
After taking care of business earlier in the day, I headed out into the heat of the afternoon sun for a run on Upper Table Rock.  Later, in the evening, I did a delt/bi/tri workout......I started with a triset of DB shoulder presses, DB curls and cable pressdowns, and followed that with a suspension trainer triset of rear delt flyes, overhead tricep extensions and bicep curls.

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.
