Eight Weeks of Change and a Full Body Workout

Today is the first day of a new routine that I am going to try for about eight weeks. We will see how long these workouts take, see how the addition of longer periods of cardiovascular work impact my overall performance and mood. My goals are to continue to improve my strength and power and potentially lose some weight. I will not only focus on a new workout routine, but also try to focus on my diet and overall nutrition and hydration. Hydration has never been a major issue, but the summer is coming to Tucson!!

Today's quote is from John F. Kennedy:

"Change is the law of life. And those who look only to the past or present are certain to miss the future."
