MLK, a Great Group of Students and a Shoulder and Triceps Circuit

Our 14 students on the NOLS Spring Semester in the Southwest have arrived and they seem to be a group of fine young people. They rolled in, got oriented to their 80-day course and began their Wilderness First-Aid Certification. They seem excited to be here and very inquisitive.

Today is the day that we honor the life of Martin Luther King, Jr. In a world where there is a lot of violence and anger, recognizing one who sought justice through non-violent means seems like a lesson that needs to be emphasized again and again and not forgotten. Some day we may actually live up to MLK's dream.

It was a later night for me at work so four of us did a 30-minute circuit training for shoulders and triceps.

Today's quote is from Martin Luther King, Jr.:

"The time is always right to do what is right."

Workout: Shoulders and Triceps
Circuit Training: Perform each exercise for one minute in order to complete a set. Three sets total with 15 seconds between each exercise and one minute rest between sets.
Heavy Rope Whip
Barbell Push Press
Dumbbell Side Raise
Front Plate Raise
Axle Bar Skull Crusher
Diamond Triceps Push-Up
Abdominal Crunches

Have a Great Day!!
