Morning Lifting, Evening Circuit: Shoulders and Triceps

I got up at 3am this morning to get Rebecca out the door for her time at the hospital. She had to report in at 430am. After breakfast and walking the dogs (we are watching a friend's dog currently...) and sending Rebecca on her way I was able to get in a great morning weight session in. After work myself and two co-workers had a really good circuit training session. Need less to say, I am ready for some serious sleep after the "alpine start" this morning before dawn.

Today's quote is from Thomas Jefferson:

"Enlighten the people, generally, and tyranny and oppressions of body and mind will vanish like spirits at the dawn of day."
