Upper Table Rock Snowy Hike and a Lat/delt/bi Workout

I wasn't going to do it, I really wasn't going to do it.....I was going to take a break from the trails today, but dammit, it was SNOWING......and who in their right mind would pass up the chance to go up a Table Rock and traipse through the virgin snow!!!  There wasn't a lot of snow, but enough to make it an awesome hike!
Later I headed out to my near-freezing gym and did a workout of DB rows, pullups, DB rear delt flyes, and supersets of DB shoulder presses and DB curls.

Upper Table Rock Run

I took advantage of the great foggy and rainy weather this afternoon and headed out to Upper Table Rock for a fun run.....there was even traces of snow near the top of the trail.
I was going to get some more heavy lifting done too, but business chores and sessions kind of took over the rest of the day.

Pec/Tri Workout and Heavy Bag

I took a break from the trails today and did an upper body workout of BB bench presses, supersets of DB flyes and presses, ring dips, overhead cable tricep extensions and pushups.  Later, I headed back into my gym for a 30 min heavy bag workout.

Lower Table Rock Run

Even though I'm overdue for some heavy lifting, I just had to get out in the sun for a Lower Table Rock run this afternoon.  Don't let the sun fool you though....it was still COLD!
I'll try to make time tomorrow for some heavy lifting of some sort.

Leg Workout

After several hours of being run ragged by the grandkids, I took it easy with an afternoon leg workout....nothing too extreme, but I'm sure I'll be feeling it tomorrow.
