Open Workout Tuesday, June 7

For the month of June I am opening up my workouts. You can workout "with" me at a fraction of the cost of a private session. I will design the program to address your needs, but you will also do my workout. This is a great way to inspire each other and keep the quality of work high. The limit is 3 training partners for any one workout. Workouts may be indoors or out, contact me if you would like to join in! We meet Tuesdays and Thursdays at 10 AM.

Today Joe Houston was my workout partner. Joe is a great athlete, who always inspires me to up my game. Today we worked on full body movements to get the most out of our time, building strength while keeping our heart rates up.
