Lower Table Rock Run
This morning I got to spend a couple of hours with Mason.....and other than a little spit and vomit, it was an awesome time! Afterward, I aired myself out by going on a good Lower Table Rock run.

A Great Circuit Workout and Lots of Brisk Walks
I started and ended my day by going on brisk 1/2 mile walks with clients (a total of 2 miles) and in between sessions I did a high intensity bodyweight circuit workout of split squats, pullups, pushups, SB leg curls and SB crunches....the reps on the 9 circuits were 25, 20, 15, 10, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25.

Howard Prairie Lake
Today after taking care of business I got out on a new-to-me trail at Howard Prairie Lake for a good hike and run with a friend. Just what I needed to burn off some cortisol and get a little shot of biophilia!

Although I spent a good share of the day on business matters, I made time in the afternoon for a good 30 min heavy bag workout.

Tabatas
So much for a relaxing Saturday.
I got the day started with a couple of brisk 1/2 mile walks with a client and followed that with a couple of hours of paperwork....client files, bills, etc. Afterward, I spent an hour doing yard and garden work followed by an awesome workout of Tabata chinups, ring pushups, crunches and squats.

Lower Table Rock Run
Between training sessions today, I got out for a fun Lower Table Rock Run. The slightly cooler temps are definitely appreciated and I even found a snake sunning itself on the trail.
