Last Workout Together 'Til September and Leg Day

It has been a fantastic season of training with lots of folks reaching their personal goals. Today is the last day that we will all workout as a group. It will be a great workout but I will be a little bummed when it is over. I will also take on one of the more challenging things to do with training for the rest of the summer: Training on my own.

Today's quote is from Adrian Belew:

"My favorite puzzle is trying to work out the parts myself, after all it is a solo effort."

Workout: Legs
Warm-Up: Perform each exercise for one minute each.
Jump Rope
