Shoulders, Triceps and the Super Set

Early mornings are the norm now here with medical school and I was able to get in a good dumbbell workout before 7:30am. It is helpful and convenient to have the dumbbells indoors for the cold dark mornings that we have been experiencing here lately.

Today's quote is from George Foreman:

"I get up in the morning looking for an adventure."
