TOPFIT Daily Activities --- Jacksonville Forest Park Run and the ~TOPFIT 400~
Since my morning opened up unexpectedly, I took advantage of the time and headed out to the Jacksonville Forest Park trails for a 5-6 mile run in the hills and valleys.  I did have to stop a couple of times to enjoy some of the wild blackberries that I found, especially since I found some of the trailing blackberries, and I thought the season was over for them.....they are soooo good.....even better than the variety  that grow all over the valley (Himalayan blackberries ?).
Later, in my 100+ deg gym, I completed a version of my patented ~TOPFIT 400~ workout.....100 reps each of KB swings (20kg), burpees, suspension pullups, and pushups.

About Your Trainer

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.
